Lukas had such a fun TMNT birthday. He's been planning it for months and it turned out just perfect! He's getting to grown up. I love that he can help me with so many things. Now that he's 5, he says, he can get dressed by himself, get his own cereal, help with the garbages, not whine or cry anymore (sha...I wish), make the bed, brush his teeth, go to a friend's house without me walking him. He really is a big helper. I love that he has his own way of doing things. He is messy (like any kid), but when it comes to it, he is so good at cleaning up his toy room or organizing his things. He loves to dress up or pretend to be the Dad or the good guy. He gets on the computer and knows just how to play his games and go to his favorite websites. He is getting to be a better eater (although he won't touch vegetables). Pat and I will be talking in the other room and Lukas will yell out, "I heard that. I know what you're saying." As if Pat and I are trying to hide things from him. It's funny. He sleeps with Max on the bottom bunk (it's a full size) and stays there all night long. He's been waking up so happy lately and sometimes will come downstairs dressed by himself with his hair done. :) Happy days! We sure are grateful for Lukas and all the adventures and joys he brings to our family!
