taking easter pics

Okay, my mom got this "great" idea to dress me up and take easter pictures for a card. I don't know who she was kidding. That fake grass stuff stuck to everything and I didn't care for that, nor did I like those awful ears she was trying to get me to wear. However, I think she was successful after about 100photos. There was one picture that she deemed perfect. I guess you all will have to wait for your cards to see it.--Luke 

Picking a name

Well, mom and dad seem to be having a terrible time picking a new name for my brother or sister. We find out Thurs. if it is a boy or girl, so I am hoping that will help them out some. In the meantime, I have decided to circle my favorite names. Hope they like them--Luke 

Bouncy seat surfing

I am trying out this new sport--boucncy seat surfing. So far it is going well. I have really been able to get some bounce the more I practice. I am working up to no hands, but so far that hasn't worked out so well for me. I have a few war wounds to show that. I will keep working it at it.--Luke 

An afternoon at the Park

Hi everyone!! Hasn't this weather been great. Mom and I went to the park in our neighborhood Friday afternoon and we had a great time. There were other little people there to play with, and the activities seemed endless. I played in the mulch, went up and down the slide, and swang on the swings. This one lady even had a little dog out there that was really funny. Mom called it a weeny dog. I can't wait to go again. Luke  

Building with blocks

I have discovered that with these different sized blocks I can build all kinds of things. Mom helps me a little but I really like to stack them up and then bulldoze them down.
I had my 15month check up this week and I am starting to level off, as "they" say. I am 30.5 inches tall, and 23.5 lbs. Dad told me that this was ok, because I was already half of mommy's height.
I guess I had better start drinking my milk better if I want to be big and strong--Luke 

I love Elmo

Here I am with Elmo. I love Elmo. Every morning when Elmo comes on tv, I go get my Elmo so we can watch together. Then I love to see my Elmo dance the hokey pokey. It is great fun. --Luke  

Reading Books

I love looking at books. It has become one of my favorite pastimes. Turning the pages and looking at the pictures is great. I have a few favorite books: Dig, Dig, Digging, Green eggs and ham, I love you Elmo, & Thomas the train are just a few. Books with Rhyming lines are always highly rated too. Well I am off to read.

Learning to eat with a spoon

Learning how to eat with a fork and a spoon have been quite fun for; mom says I am becoming more civilized. I don't know about that. Eating with a fork is a little bit eaiser than trying to use the spoon. As you can see from above, getting the yogart onto the spoon and in the mouth can be quite the challenge. --Luke 

Here I am learning how to tap out a tune on the bells. I have been practicing daily and I am getting pretty good. I like composing my own music; better that playing the traditional tunes. I think I have found a new talent. --Luke 

Good morning all! This is me last Saturday, when I helped root the Wolfpack on to a win over the Tarheels. Mom said that she would be a good sport and let Dad and I gloat for the evening. I have been learning alot lately about being a good sport, sharing, and these things called manners. I don't know that I like them so much, but I guess I had better try. Mom seems quite persistant.
I hope everyone has a good weekend.--Luke 

Just hanging

I know it has been a while since I have last blogged, but mommy and I have been very busy. However, as you can see, I have found some time to just relax. I got this comfy chair at Nana and Granddaddy's and I really love it. It is just perfect for watching some TV while sipping on juice. I won't wait so long before checking back in. Luke 

Beep Beep

Now that I have learned how to climb onto this car, I love to sit and beep the horn. It even has these other cool buttons that light up and speak, but nothing beats the horn. Mom and dad love the horn too. Although, Reese and Sadie don't seem to care for the lovely beep. They often hide in the next room or hit the great outdoors. I am still working on how to make the car go foward when I sit on it, but I can't quite seem to get the car to move. Mom pushes me around on it, and I think that it is pretty cool. Mom goes the speed limit, but when Aunt Taylor comes over, she lets me speed. Well, I am off to play love, Luke 

Happy New Year!!!

I hope everyone had a Merry Christmas, and a Happy New Year. I had a great holiday. That Santa person I went to see, brought me all kinds of new toys, clothes, and books. I also got to see all kinds of people. I also helped tell everyone that I am going to be a BIG brother this year!! Can you believe it. I'm really not sure what all that means for me, but mom said she would tell me all about it. Everyone was really surprised and excited, I think.
For the new year, Mom, Dad, and I went to Charleston with some friends. I has a blast. We went down to the beach and I got to play in the sand. Although, it doesn't taste as good as it looks.
Well I am off to nap. Catch you guys later--Luke
