“A portrait of my son, once a week, every week, in 2014.”

This face. The face of a boy who is not happy that mama interrupted play time. Carry on, Lucas. #lucasandhisredhouse

This red felt house is Lucas’s new jam. He fills it up with all his best friends, including Wolverine, a couple of ninja turtles, and Bert (of the Bert and Ernie duo). I have given up on trying to convince him to leave the thing at home (dirty streets, bla bla bla). It’s just not worth the fight. Red felt house must come to all. the. places. 😉

This week I couldn’t choose just one photo because oh my goodness, STUD MUFFIN. He’s wearing his favorite, worn in onesie and friends, there is nothing better than seeing your toddler wear just about about anything that makes them look like a baby. Also, I just love our Saturday morning cuddle sessions in bed.

My sweet boy you are growing at such a rapid pace that at times I feel like I can’t keep up with you. It’s a bitter sweet feeling. Every day you are accomplishing something new – words and expressions galore. Try to slow down a little for mama, ok?

Oh my Lucas. This is you checking out your reflection. I suppose you are just realizing what a stud you are 😉  Sometimes I look at you with that same reaction. You’re all mine my handsome boy.

There is nothing better than watching you and your papi play together. Although you are a mamas boy at heart, it fills me with so much joy that you are most certainly your fathers little mini-me.

Lucas is OBSESSED with the PBS Kids app. He knows exactly where to find it on my phone and how to switch programs within the app. This is his concentrated PBS look 😉 I love this face.

We love bath time around here. You know it was a good time when everyone leaves the bathroom soaked and with a smile.

This was taken right after he woke from his afternoon nap. A dried up milk mustache and those lashes. #swoon

We spent the day at grandmas listening to merengue and eating delicious sancocho. You love to dance and socialize. You buzz from person to person. My silly butterfly!
