Bye Bye Doggy!

On Sunday Toby went out to get the newspaper and this puppy came up to him and would not leave. She started camping out on our front porch and would not leave. She loves Toby and did not want to leave him. She would follow him everywhere. We tried to find the owner but we weren't able to so we found a home for the puppy. She lives out in Bandera Texas on a farm. She is a 4 month old Blue Heeler and will be a great cattle dog. I am glad we were able to find her a good home and not have to bring her to the pound. But poor Lucas cried his eyes out when we drove away from dropping her off. He kept saying I want my doggy. I want my doggy. We had to have a long talk about how she wasn't his dog and when he potty trains then he will get a dog. As much as I don't want a dog, I will do anything right now to have Lucas potty trained. After Lucas got over that the dog was not coming home with us he then started crying about wanting to go back to the farm and ride the horses. Poor little boy. He would make such a good little farm boy. Then after Lucas got over the fact that he can not go back and ride the horses right now, he continued to tell us that Tuff and Harley are dead (my parents dogs). Well Harley is dead, he passed away the day after Thanksgiving, but Tuff sure isn't. So he had us talking about Tuff being dead the entire way home and refused to believe that he isn't. I love that little boy. He sure does make us laugh. Those of you who really know Lucas can probably get a good laugh about some of the things he says too.

Big boy Kyle and mommy!

Kyle was so tired he crawled to the corner of the couch and fell asleep!

Kyle is such a big boy on his Mickey Mouse Airplane!

The last couple weeks have been quite eventful. The boys have been growing like weeds and learning all sorts of things. Lucas is such a big boy. He is forever asking millions of questions and putting together really good sentences. It is crazy to think that I never thought he would ever be able to talk so that we could understand him. Just the other day he came up to me and said "Papa is dead." I had to tell him no Lucas Harley Papas doggie is dead and in heaven. It cracks me up to think what could be going on in his head to come up to me and say that. So we had to call Papa and let Lucas talk to him so he knew he wasn't dead. And Kyle is crawling EVERYWHERE. He also pulls himself up on everything and walks along it. Before I know it he will be walking and I will be in BIG trouble. Then Lucas will be able to show him all the naughty things he does. Boy will I be in trouble then. Also Kyle had his 8 month progress test and he is considered above average. We are so excited because he is doing above and beyond what was expected after his fall. He is doing many things that most babys his age can not do. We are so happy that Kyle is such an amazing baby. But we knew he had to be because look how great his big brother is! Also we are counting down until we go to Las Vegas. It is One month and one day now. My poor parents are going to be stuck with their favorite daughter and their wonderful grand boo boo's for a month and a half. I am soooooooo excited. So is Lucas. Everyday about a hundred times he says he wants to go on an airport plane to Grandma's house. Soon enough we will be and we will get to see lots of good friends and family!
