Meier Moments: Growing up and Getting Old

I official understand the saying "there are never enough hours in a day." Lately I feel as if i am always behind! This last month or so has showed me what being busy really means. Although i do enjoy being back in school it has been very hard leaving Lucas. The first two weeks were really hard. I felt like I was always leaving him at my moms (although i am so grateful that she is able to watch him) I slowly am adjusting to the fact that it is for the best. Nights so far seem to be the hardest. Colby and I both have a full schedule and have a lot of homework and studying to do. It seems like Lucas can be a happy little guy playing on the floor and then the second I pick up a book to do homework he wants attention. This is usually what i get to listen to while doing my work.
A lot of the time I give in because he is just being too dang cute and we play. This however is very bad study habits! Luckily so far I have been doing really well in my classes. I am lucky to have a smart husband who can help me with my math when i do not understand something. We are a pretty good match, I do well in English and he does well in Math and Science. Although i don't see him needing much help with English this semester since our class is "Writing about Comic book." It is a very fun class.
Lucas is getting so big, so fast. I don't know where the time went. I can't believe it has already been four months! He is such a happy little guy and we are so blessed to have him in our family. He had his four month check up last week and these were his stats:

Weight: 12lbs (7-8%)
Height: 24in. (25%)

His weight percentile has dropped but his height percentile has almost doubled. He recently started eating solids and is doing pretty well. He seems to like rice cereal but is not so sure about peas yet. he will eat them but have a not so nice face the entire time. He likes to eat it off of his own hands more than anything.

Lucas has recently started his own little game. We will put him on his play mat and he well tug and kick at it until the arch above him falls over. He also likes to get himself completely turned around on the mat. He acts all innocent when we come to fix his mat, little monster :)

Now for the getting old part. Colby and I both turned 20 two weeks ago. Yay for no longer being teen parents! We had a great week filled with birthday events. We had a nice dinner with my parents in St. George and Colby's mom made us a really yummy dinner. His sister Lissa made us a really yummy cake too (Pumpkin my favorite)

We also recently also got new counter tops in our kitchen. I LOVE them! They changed the look of our kitchen so much.
