"Since I can't stick both feet in my mouth, which I try all the time, lets stick one in your mouth, Mommy!"



Getting on our first plane ride with him Aug 8. He did great. It was much better getting
somewhere with him in one hour than driving and it taking 7 or 8 hours.

Swimming with PawPaw. He loves the water splashing towards him!

His first pictures with the big fire truck. All of this didn't interest him so much this time, but I have a feeling it will one day.

Hot momma on the Engine!

His cousins Drake and Alexander came and visited for a couple of days. They were great with Luke and he loved them--they made him laugh all day long. These pictures really make him look like a little boy and not a baby anymore

Bath time fun with mommy!

He's so close to crawling. He's pushing up and tucking his legs and getting up on his knees, but all that actually pushes him backward. He was on the floor playing and I looked up and this is what I found---he had pushed himself backward under our entertainment center

Luke was constipated last week(I know--t.m.i.), so the Doctor told us to give him some water. This is his first experience with water---it cracked him up for some reason(and got rid of the constipation)Bonus!

Jennifer caught me asleep with Luke the other day after a long night at the station(2nd pic). The first pic was on the blog six months ago after a long night of staying up with Luke. Just liked seeing the comparison

Just before bath time! Luke loves being naked! I've heard all boys do, so I'm not too worried about him becoming a streaker in the future.

JuJu, Jenn's mom came over Tuesday night, came in and told us there was a huge rainbow outside. We went out and saw this. . . It went from on side of the sky to the other. Luke got to see his first rainbow.

Jenn teaching Luke about God's promise to Noah. I'm pretty sure he didn't understand a word.

The next pictures are his favorite things to play with. . . .

He loves the dogs. He especially loves a hand full of dog hair in both hands. The dogs like him until the hair is pulled, then not so much. They do a good job though of not biting him.

He loves my cell phone. He's working here on crawling towards it.

Hasn't quite got the crawl thing down yet, but soon. . . And then our lives will change FOREVER!

This is his dear/bull riding thing. He's a big fan.

And of course he likes his bath. We usually give him his bath in the tub, but on occasion he'll take one in the sink. He can play with his toys easier this way.

He'll put one in his mouth so his hands are free for the other toys.

Playing coy with Lily.

And he loves his grandparents. This is my mom, Nana to Luke. He played with them forever last night. He took a cat nap and then played some more.
