Still kIcKiN!

So I have to apologize to all of you who visit our blog, disappointed time and time again to see the same old posts. I guess we're just so busy, I forget to make time to update the blog! Sorry, friends!

We've had some fun times since January! Despite being constantly busy with church callings and school, Seth and I have tried to take my dad's advice to "WORK hard and PLAY hard" to heart. Sierra and Nick came to visit for Valentine's Day, and Leslie came to play in March. The most exciting thing of all was our Easter present from Sierra and Nick. Seth and I got a really cute package with a bunch of eggs full of all sorts of goodies. One of the eggs had a special note to "OPEN ME", and inside there was an ultrasound picture! Sierra is pregnant and due on October 27! Hooray!

For Memorial Day, we were able to take a road trip with the Knells and Robarges down to San Diego. Sadly, Ashley and Kory (Knell) will be leaving us to move down to La Jolla at the end of this month, so we helped them look for apts while down there. It made me really excited as I entertained the idea of moving to a place with warmer weather! I love San Francisco, but I'm a true desert rat who is constantly cold here! The Robarges, Knells, and we had so much fun taking time just to relax, hang out on the beach, and take it easy.

Last week, I made a quick trip to Vegas to see one of my old best friends, Taylor Ludwig, get married. His wife, Halley, is so sassy... I loved it! It was really fun to catch up with old friends. We don't get to see enough of you guys! While in Vegas, I got to go with Sierra to her OB GYN appointment. It was supposed to be just a normal check-up, but when Sierra said she couldn't feel the baby yet, the doctor decided to do an ultrasound to help her coordinated the movements she was seeing with what she was feeling. I had been so sad because I wasn't going to be able to be at the appointment when she found out the sex of the baby, which was supposed to not take place 'til the end of June. But great news! During this unplanned ultrasound, the doctor was able to confirm that the baby is, without question, a boy! We couldn't be more excited! Congratulations, Sierra and Nick! Thanks for letting me come to that appointment that turned to be such an exciting one! I seriously look at baby clothes every day... I think I have Seth convinced that I have baby fever, but I'm really just so excited for my new little nephew!

So.. that's the latest and greatest in our little Lucas family! I've included a few pictures of our house..well the living room at least...cuz I wanted to record what our little apt looks like! This stage of life is so fun for us, and we can't wait for the next adventures that lie ahead!
