Big City

All I know is that Lucy Moderatz works in a real, real big city. Yes, I know that. I was there this last weekend. I couldn't help but think about her and Peter and Jack. Oh, and of course Elsie.  Peter is one lucky guy because those trains come fast. I saw them. Here's proof of our delightful weekend.  

 Janie, Dennis and Lucas in a Chicago pizza restaurant. The sausage on the pizza was unreal, not to mention the buffalo wings, breadsticks that were better than Little Ceasars and root beer better than Brick Oven.

 Roaming and shopping the streets. We saw every type of person, except Jo Jr..

I don't think he'll ever go back to his travel size pack n' play.

 View of Chicago  skyline from our dinner cruise boat. 

Hey boys, nice uh, sweater.

20th floor of the Marriot. He loved the lights and the sirens.

 The single picture Tyler wanted. Him in front of Touchdown Jesus. Apparently it's a big landmark in college football.

The weekend ended too quickly. We're back to reality without family around. Ty is back at school, Lucas is sleeping and I'm off to watch While You Were Sleeping. Thank you Janie and Dennis for the luxurious weekend and reminding us that there is nothing better than being with the one's we love.

Now Showing...

Lucas has decided that it is fun to stomp his foot when he wants something. He first started doing it when he saw his little blue sippy cup and continued on to stomping when he saw us eating food he wanted. Now he stomps to Rocky Top. I showed this to my Biomechanics class and they loved the video, said I was the best teacher ever. Go Vols!

So for those of you who remember the screams and sadness in Utah we wanted to share a little bit of Lucas and his new disposition. He is just so happy and it is so fun for us to watch. He finally got a ball the other day and he loves it!

Lucas now shakes his head to any question that we ask him. We can ask him if he loves mom, dad or Jesus and he just shakes his head no. The other day Ash was talking to her mom and told her about it, she said "I don't think he really knows what he is doing but it is pretty cute" just at that time he started shaking his head to say no. During How Firm a Foundation in conference he shook his head during the verse that said "I'll never no never no never forsake" Maybe he does know what he is doing after all.
