Mckenna: Mckenna has really gotten used to having a brother. She is a great help when we ask her to get things for us. She is a little rough with baby brother sometimes but she loves him and this is her way of showing it. Lately, Mckenna has been into movies.She has several favorites but currently she is loving Rio and Tangled. I have been waiting and waiting for Mckenna to get into coloring and the time has come! We can spend nearly an hour at the table coloring and using "sickers". She loves to use note cards, post-its and notebooks to write on. She gets this really cute, serious face when she is writing. I LOVE it! Her vocabulary is amazing! When we were in Iowa over Labor Day she called her "ma-ma" (Grandma Charlene) and said the following sentence, "I swimmin Marge's pool"! AMAZING isn't it? There are less and less quiet moments in our house as one of Mckenna's favorite things to do these days is scream and talk! Here are some pictures of Mckenna from the last month or so...
Quentin:Quentin continues to grow and spend more time awake. He still loves to be swaddled, which I think is crazy! Many times if we can't get him to fall asleep the magic missing factor is the swaddle! He is officially smiling intentionally! When we were in Iowa over Labor Day weekend he perfected his abilities, smiling most often at Papa Ken! :) He is a strong little boy. He can hold his head up quite well and doesn't need to be held so carefully anymore. (Ya know, holding his head so it doesn't bobble off!) He is starting to intentionally bat at objects over his head. He loves to kick and play under his little play mat. He has met even more family members in Iowa as well as Missouri lately! I can tell that Quentin is probably going to be a mover just like his big sister! Here are some recent pictures of Q-Dog:
Quentin was also baptized on September 4th.We had him baptized at Hope just like Mckenna. Aunt Kelly is his Godmother. After the baptism it was back to the lake house for steaks and boating. It was a beautiful day and spent with loved ones!
Life just keeps on going! Hopefully I will be able to get another post in sooner rather than later! :) Have a great week!
Love from the Lucas Family!
