Happy 4th Birthday, Lucas!

Lucas is 4! And he's very excited about it. He frequently says, "I'm 4 now!" and "I can do that now because I'm 4!" When he opened his presents in the morning, he was so polite and kept saying, "Thank you! I love it!" and "Thank you for my new underwear, Mommy! I love them!" He was so cute.

He had such a great time opening all of his presents from family and friends! Thank you so much! We spent a lot of time putting together new Lego creations. Meet his spider, Acadia. Sound familiar? Don't worry, she's nice!
Lucas wanted a Death Star cake, but we settled on Darth Vader and Yoda cupcakes. Lucas didn't think they looked like Darth Vader or Yoda, but he enjoyed the frosting! About the time I finished decorating them, he told me he wanted a real cake. :)
We had a pool party in the evening. Lucas had such a fun time.
Uncle Wyatt was a hit with the kids. If you look closely, you can see Lucas' tan line and little bum!!!
Grandpa Biasi, Grandma Diane, and Uncle Leo were able to come celebrate with Lucas!
Look at that chubby face!
We love Lucas. He makes us laugh and keeps us on our toes. Happy Birthday, Lucas!

*We met a man at the pool.
Lucas: How old are you?
Man: 65
Lucas: I can't wait til I'm 65.

*Lucas has had a very sensitive sense of smell lately. Here are some different experiences we've had:

-Lucas: Mom, change Kaitlin. She stinks. She makes me want to...cry.
-When he poops, we can hear him in the bathroom spitting because it smells bad.
-Lucas: Mom, don't touch me. You're making me all hot. You stink.

-At church, in a very loud whisper:
Lucas: Dad, your breath stinks. IT STINKS!!!!!!!
-Lucas: Mom, what's that smell?
Me: I just cleaned the floor. It's the cleaning stuff.
Lucas: Oh. It stinks.
A few minutes later:
Lucas: Mmmm, Mom. What's that good smell?
Me: I have been lighting matches.
Lucas: The fire is getting in my throat and I LOVE IT!!! I love that smell.

Ha ha, Lucas is so funny! I'm glad he had a fun birthday! I hope the smell thing fades a bit, for his nose's sake. What a cutie.
