Baby #3

Surprise! It sure was for us :)

We announced to our families and on Facebook back in August with this picture.

 In November we found out that baby is...

I am currently 30 weeks along. Due April 7th, but hope to be induced a few days earlier.
This pregnancy has been an emotional roller coaster for me. But, I am getting really excited and am ready for baby to come. 

Oh, and we finally decided on a name this past weekend.
Mason Dean Crowther
(Dean is my dad's middle name also)

Lucas: 18 months

Lucas is such a sweet, almost always happy boy. 
Things I want to remember:
 * Has a fascination with lights  
* He is a pretty good eater, but more picky than he used to be. He has a major sweet tooth.
 * Loves piggy back rides. Whenever anyone is sitting on the floor he will run over and climb on their back, and he makes a funny panting noise while riding.
 * Loves to play by himself
 * He doesn't say very many words, but that doesn't mean he can't get his point across. He will point or drag us to whatever he wants.  He does say: no no (his current favorite word), mama, dada, hello/hi, luh (look), here, nana (banana). I think he understands most of what we say to him.
 * His favorite person is still Grandma Ellie, but he is pretty happy with anyone he knows. He can be a little shy if someone new tries to talk to him.
* He still loves his binky (only gets it at sleep time and church) and his blanket, which we call 'pretty' thanks to Abbie. 
 * When he is really tired he is super whiny and cuddly, or super silly/ giggly 
* He really loves phones 
* Likes to color. Markers and pens are his favorite because then he can take the lid off and put it back on.
* He is still small for his age. He wears about 12 month pants and size 3 diapers.
* Went to nursery for the first time today and loved it. When I went to pick him up he cried because he didn't want to leave.
* His current nickname is Booey, thanks again to Abbie. I really hate it but can't help saying it because everyone else has picked it up too.
* Still loves his sister and often wants to 'play' with whatever she is playing.

* Did I mention that he is very busy? He couldn't stay still long enough to take some pictures.
 

We sure love this little guy!
