The boy's a-changin'

Lucas sat at the table for the first time tonight (no pics unfortunately). Well, officially. Normally, he sits in his high chair, but lately, we've found that he's been very finicky when eating. On a hunch, Marilu decided to put him in his booster seat contraption on the chair and move him right up to the table. I'm not sure if that was the only reason, but he ate like a champ tonight. So for the time being, he's moved to the big leagues. We're also planning to buy him a kids' table this week, so that should help as well.

One thing I haven't mentioned in the past is that Lucas loves babies. Anytime he sees one, he shows a lot of interest in them and typically pets or touches them gently. It's really cute. In late November, Marilu had an Epicure party (not sure if these are in the States; it's kind of like a Pampered Chef party, only more focused on spices), and her friend Nicole brought her baby. Lucas immediately went over and checked him out. Afterwards, he sat in Nicole's arms for quite a while, presumably so he could be close to the baby. Cute stuff.
