I don't want to leave Lucas behind. It seems with him we hit a new milestone every day so it's hard to keep up. But here are a few of the recent ones:
At the beginning of summer Lucas learned how to pump on the swings!
He's going underwater more (still as little as possible, but more than never) and jumping off the side of the pool by himself.
Despite being potty trained since he was two years old, Lucas has always slept in "night underpants" (aka pull-ups.) But yesterday we had a getting-rid-of-night-underpants-Axel F-dance party and the first night went well! He's sleeping on a flat waterproof sheet thing (soft on one side, vinyl on the other) just in case.
He is saying his S's clearly and getting better with the "sh" and "th" sounds.
Lucas loves art now and is getting much better at drawing.
He also loves writing letters although he writes the "C" and "S" in his name backwards and refuses to try and change that. He can also spell Paul and probably a few other words or names. But mostly he likes to copy a word he sees written down.
He has recently been into climbing trees. I didn't think we had a good one in the yard (and really, we don't) but the Crepe Myrtle in front is perfectly fine according to Lucas.
He recently went through a folding clothes phase. For weeks he dutifully folded his pjs and put them back in the drawer with care every morning. But this routine seems to be going on vacation for the summer.
It looks like he's going to be an artist -- fabulous paintings!
