Growing up

Our baby is just growing so fast. For the last few weeks he's been trying to figure out this whole crawling thing, but he was still doing the army crawl. On Sunday he figured out how to crawl on his hands and knees. Now he's a pro and he's all over the place. We're really starting to realize how much baby proofing we need to do.

And just today Lucas got his first tooth. Man that little thing is sharp! I put a close up in case you can't see it in the first one.


We've had such a busy last few weeks. We had a lot of snow too, which was fun, and also the death-cicles that always form outside our apartment.


We've also spent a lot of time getting ready for Christmas. Lucas loves to help wrap presents.

And the best part of these last few weeks was when we got to go to California for my brother John's wedding. A lot of my family have already posted so many pictures of the wedding so I'm going to try to limit the ones I put on here.

My brother got married on December 12th in the Oakland temple. The day before was my birthday so we had a pre-wedding/birthday barbecue. It was a lot of fun and Lucas got to meet all his California relatives that he's never seen before. Most importantly, his great grandparents.

And here was my birthday cake. It was some toasted almond concoction and it was absolutely amazing!!!

And then the wedding day. It was a beautiful ceremony.

And John and Becky were so cute!



It was raining while we were at the temple but it let up just long enough to take family pictures.

And I just wanted to throw this one in there. Lucas loves pulling hair, but especially his uncle Bret's hair.

And Ryan is taking his last final right now and then we'll be able to relax and enjoy spending Christmas with family.
