Lucas turns 6!

It is really really really hard to believe that Lucas is 6 years old. I feel like I was just getting used to the idea that he was in kindergarten and now my little guy is 6. He has grown so much in the past year...not just physically but in so many ways. He has matured a lot (although he is still a spunky and crazy boy), learned so much (is doing well with learning to read and loves math) and has been doing so very well in school with following directions and all the rules and just being such a good boy (he has his moments still of course). I am thrilled that he has grown physically as well. Between 4 and 5 he gained very little weight but he made up for it this year. He gained almost 4 lbs and finally hit 40 lbs!

His party was  a lot of fun. It was at a bowling alley and they had cosmic bowling. His cousins came, a few boys from his class and some long-time friends. It was a great time!



 
The favors were "bowling balls" (aka whoppers) with teenage mutant ninja turtle tattoos and a mini skateboard tied to it.

Lucas has also come such a long way with sports this year. He was not too trilled when I signed him up for soccer a year ago (he has played through 3 seasons) and now coach-pitch baseball. We have been so lucky to have him as part of a team with great coaches, great kids and great families. He now loves to go to practice and games and he has come so far!!! We are crazy proud of him!


 
Happy 6th birthday Lucas!!!! We love you!
