I'm very sorry that I haven't posted anything in over a month. So, to catch up with what we've done over the past month, here are some highlights. It's in two posts, so you have to scroll down. Enjoy!
Enjoying some bubbles with Kenzie--cousin
Opening a Christmas present from cousin Kamryn!

More presents from Uncle Larry and Aunt Mandy!


He loves his Pops and Nana!


Enjoying one of the presents from Uncle Larry and Aunt Mandy

He couldn't get enough of cousins Kenzie and Kamryn and they couldn't get enough of him either!


As we thought he would, he loved the wrapping paper more than anything.

New Romo jersey from Pops and Nana!

"Thanks Pops and Nana!"

"Seriously, this wrapping paper is awesome!"


Shoes from Pops and Nana
We got luke his first doughnut---a krispy kreme raspberry jelly filled one. He loved it as you can see.




We ran the eight mile turkey trot on Thanksgiving morning with my mom, dad, brother Matt, his wife Megan, and nephew Alexander. It was a blast and Luke did great in his jogging stroller.


Thanksgiving day. All the cousins minus Drake. Luke loves his cousins!

A week ago, we went camping with couples from our church. We go every spring and fall. It was Luke's first camping trip while outside of the womb-Jenn was a trooper and went when pregnant last year. Luke did great and we had a blast. We look forward to many, many more camping outings together.



It was cold at night and in the morning, but we had the fire and layers of clothes to put on. Luke didn't seem to mind at all.







Our dogs in the hammock and the tent in the background. You can see the extention cord on the ground leading to the electric blanket and sound machine going to our tent--we rough it, but not too rough.

Our raccoon friend during the weekend.

Cooking pancakes and sausage in the morning. Everything tastes better while camping!
Our friends had their bikes, so Luke and I went for a ride. He loved it! He talked the whole time. It may be time to get one for ourselves

He passed out right at seven every night, so we just took turns cuddling him around the campfire before we went to bed. It was good times.

A Day At White Rock Lake
Jennifer, Luke, Jason and Catherine(Gutting)Baumgardner all went to White Rock Lake to take some pictures. Luke loved it. Here's just some of the highlights.



























He loves to stare


I promise I caught him. He loves it and mommy is getting used to it.









This looks like he's playing with the bird, but it's actually on the post closer to the camera.
