Two things I forgot to update on: Lucas rolled over for the first time on the 4th of July!! He only did it that once, but he did it. AND Baxter has a nice new home. A lady who retired from KC at the end of June took him. She's really enjoying him so that's good! OK this guy's squirming on my lap, gotta run!

I've been working like a crazy lady!

I'm officially a bad blogger. I haven't updated in over a month. OK I'll do the typing part now and the pictures this weekend (PROMISE!). So going back to work was tough. I cried and cried the night before and the morning I had to leave little Lucas. It just made me sad that someone else would get to see him smiling at them on the changing table. But, I know he's in great hands, so I wasn't too worried. I called twice I think the first day, once the second day, once the third day then I didn't call anymore. They were really nice about it told me how good Lucas was doing. I was fine by the next Monday with bringing him to daycare. It's really fun to pick him up too! I can't wait to get him home to cuddle him.

He had an ear infection a week or so ago and I didn't even know it. He was just really stuffy for over two weeks so I brought him in. The doc said he probably would have developed a fever soon because his ear was pretty inflamed. Poor guy!! But he didn't even seem bothered. He's a laid back little one. That's for sure. His mommy and daddy both have pretty busy go-go-go personalities, I'm not sure where he gets this "I don't really care what I do" attitude. Probably his Uncle Tony! Maybe there's a reason he's named after him!! :) He just goes with the flow, doesn't get upset about much...and chills out most of the time. Just a smiley little man!!

I had Jodie's bachelorette party in Detroit in mid-June. That was LOTS of fun!! It felt good to get out with the girls and live it up a bit. We even met a professional hockey player & Mr. Belding from Saved By The Bell. Pretty funny! Jodie will make such a beautiful bride, I can't wait to see her in that dress!! :) AND I even brought Lucas with me on the plane over to Detroit. He did great! He cried for about 10 seconds when he was hungry. I was really relieved of that because babies' ears are so sensitive...I didn't know how he'd do with the pressure on the plane.

Last weekend we were up in Gwinn/MQT for the 4th of July and my 10 year high school reunion. The reunion actually exceeded my expectations. I thought it might be kind of boring and my good friends and I would want to leave. But it was really fun! Lots of people changed and doing very well for themselves. My feet killed by the end of the night from my shoes, but at least I looked cute! Haha!

I have been working like a crazy woman too. I'm working with some people in India and the UK. So I've been getting up around 5:30 or so to get more time with them. Then head into the office around 11:00 or 12:00. Work until 4:30 and sometimes even log in at night. There are some big deadlines coming up that I really want to hit. So the more work we do now, the sooner we can get this dumb project over with. I'll be proud if it goes well with all of the time I've put into it, but it's kind of burning me out. This weekend I will have to catch up on sleep.

OK...pictures to come this weekend!!! Sorry it's been SO long!
