Ready for diaper duty

 

 

Ok, I have found some gear, so I can help mom with diaper duty. It is seemingly a little on the messy side, so I wanted to be prepared. Jude has quite a knack for sleeping, eating, and pooping. I can't quite keep up. Everything is going swell, I am starting to get used to having another little person around, but I still am not sure about him being here permanently.--Luke

Well, since Luke does most of the talking for me, I don't have too much to say. So far things are going good. I have this cool thing called a swing that rocks me back and forth, which I really like. It helps my napping alot. Speaking of which, I think I am due for another.--Jude

Luke gets a train set, and Jude is growing

 

 

 

 

Here we are a few days after we returned home. Jude is already growing and changing everyday and I am excited about my new train set. The track is really cool, and I love my the trains. At least this is something that I can play with indoors while we are still in this crazy heat wave.--Luke

Jude is here

 

 

 

 

Well it is official I have a little brother. I don't know how I feel about him yet, but mom and dad keep telling me that we are going to be great friends. I'll get back to you all on that one. Right now everything is going ok, except that I have a terrible cold. Maybe once I get to feeling better, I will have a differnet take on all that is going on. I will be sending more photos out this week.--Luke

Lion towel

     

Well, mom says my time as a single blogger is drawing close to an end. Whatever that means. She claims that I am going to have to share my space with my new brother Jude, who will be here on Monday. I helped mom get all checked in on Friday, and now she is wearing these lovely red and purple arm bands that tell who she is. I thought that was a bit odd, but mom told me it is just protocol (whatever that is). Well I am off to the pool, since it is actually cool enough to be outside today. Talk to everyone later--Luke

lounging around

 

 

These hot days are really getting old. Mom says the best thing is to lounge around. So I am giving it a whirl. It's not too bad. I like running around at the park better, but every now and then this is nice. It gives mom a break as well, since she says we need to save our energy for Jude's arrival. I hope this baby is going to be as fun as everyone is making him out to be. -- Luke

First Hair Cut

 

 

 

 

Ok today mom and I went to this place called snip-its, where I had my first hair cut. I didn't really know what to think about the whole situation, but mom assured me that it would be fine and that my curls would still be there when we left. I didn't want those going anywhere, as they tend to attract the ladies. Over all it was fine, mom took several pictures and they gave her a tuft of my hair. I'm not sure why she wanted to keep that. I also got a treat when we left, so I may consider going back.--Luke

Procrastinating Nap Time

 

 

 

Ok, mom heard me up to something in my room, as I was putting off taking my nap, but boy waws she in for a treat. When she came to check in on me, I had finally given up the battle, but not without a fight. I managed to put all of my stuffed animals in the bed with me, along with a few books, and other toys. I think we look quite cozy.--Luke

Beach trip

 

 

 

 

Well I know it has been a while since I have last blogged but we have beed incredibly busy at our house. Vacationing, swimming lessons, partys, and getting ready for the arrival of Jude has had us all running wild. Mom promises that all of this running around will slow down really soon. These photos are of our last beach trip when we went with Nana and Granddaddy. We were at OIB, and we had a great time. I think I was successful in keeping everyone on their toes. I am just looking out for their health. Well I will be more prompt in keeping everyone updated, especially as the arrival of Jude nears. --Luke

Playspace

Hey-- Here are some action shots of me in playspace. Mom and I went this morning and met Garrison and his mom there. There was so much to do, we didn't know where to start. We played with trains, drove in cars, splashed in water, painted, colored, grochery shopped, and much more. It was such an action packed morning that I became tired rather quickly. So we met dad for an early lunch were I told him all about the morning, and that he would have to go with us next time.--Luke

More playspace pics

new nursery!

Well the new nursery is complete. Dad painted all of these stripes on the wall. I think he did a smashing job. Mom still says there are a few more things to be done, but I don't know what. I told her I could help.--Luke
