Words: Ball, Hi, Buh-Bye, Dada, and Mama... usually spoken roughly in that order of priority.
Movement: Stands up all of the time... and yes! We've seen all of the first steps! He's still pretty shaky and very much prefers to hold on to a finger. We don't really blame him since he falls down so much. So.. to compromise.. he does a lot of standing up and lowering himself back down to speed crawl to things if a finger or furniture are not present.
Foods: He's open season on all foods now that are within reason for a person with only 8 little teeth. We're just finishing the last of our Similac stash and he'll be on regular people milk in another few weeks. He REALLY likes fruit so we always have to eat our fruit last. He's also off the bottle fully and enjoys sippy cups with a silicone nipple on them.
Toys: all things spherical make him pretty happy. He is also pretty excited about cars and things he can "drive". I have learned that anything involving water is a sure bet to tire him out and keep him happy.
On the emotional side, Lucas definitely claims us as Mommy and Daddy. We've had a few interactions when he let us know that he really doesn't like us holding other babies! Although he is still friendly and likes to flirt quite a bit, he really prefers to be held by Mom or Dad... if one of us aren't present Grandpa's and Grandma's will do.
Before we close... we present you with a little video of Lucas' "driving" abilities in Grandma & Grandpa's driveway in his "sweet ride" he found at a garage sale.
Enjoy! It's short so feel free to re-play for added cuteness.
