Birthday Party!!

Yesterday was Luke's 1st Birthday Party! He had a blast! A few family members even drove the 3 hours from Oklahoma to celebrate with us (thanks Aunt Heather, Great Grandma, Aunt Sue and cousins Lacie and Brett). Thank you to all of our family and friends that came to party with Luke. Luke was once again spoiled with many wonderful presents. He loves all of his presents and has already been playing with many of the toys, even though he wasn't very interested in opening them! He wanted to bounce in the bounce house and walk around! Luke received his first REAL set of golf clubs from his Memaw and Grandpa...the bag even has his name embroidered on it! He received some big trucks to push around, Scout the dog, a pounding nail/hammer toy, lots of clothes and many other cool toys. Here are some pictures from the party!

Luke's Gifts

Luke is spoiled by so many friends and family! He had a great birthday with many presents...and he hasn't even had his party yet!! Ms. Cindy and Ms. Tanya (from Mommy's work) bought him some cool presents and Abby and Eden (friends from the babysitters) got him some neat stuff, too. When we got home Luke got a few more presents from Mommy and some from Memaw and Grandpa!! Here are a few pictures...

Thank you so much to everyone for making Luke's 1st birthday so wonderful!!! We are blessed to have each one of you in our lives!

Happy 1st Birthday!!

Luke,
I can't believe that this time last year we were in the hospital and you were just hours old. You were such a tiny little baby and now you've grown into such a cute little boy! I have loved every second of being your mommy and can't wait for many more years to come. I can't believe how many "firsts" you've had this year....teeth, sitting up, talking/babbling, crawling, walking, climbing, eating big people food, plane rides, vacations, car trips and so many more. In the past month, you've began walking..and getting quite good at it. You've also started feeding yourself with a fork....you pretty much will only eat whatever you can feed yourself! Some of your favorite foods are chicken nuggets, carrots, bananas and mandarian oranges. You love Mickey Mouse and like to play with any ball or car/truck! You are still wearing size 3 diapers and are now wearing 18 month clothes and size 4-5 shoes. I hope you have a wonderful birthday!!
I love you,
Mommy

Happy Halloween

Today was Luke's 1st Halloween. He didn't really know what was going on, but he dressed up anyways! He was the cutest little sock monkey. He didn't go trick or treating since he didn't really understand, but we did go to a Halloween party at a friend's house. She had it decorated so neat and had a lot of cool games for the kiddos to play. Luke's favorite thing was the bounce house. He loved, loved, LOVED it!! Thanks Molly for having such a great party!!!

Birthday Time!

I can't believe that next Monday my baby will be 1 year old!!! Luke will turn 1 on Nov. 2, but we are having his party on Sat., Nov. 7, so family from Okla can come down and celebrate with us. I wanted to share his invitation with you! I worked hard on it and think it turned out really cute!!!

Busy, Busy...

We have been so busy the last few days! Memaw and Grandpa made it in on Thursday afternoon. Luke was so happy to see them (and so was Mommy!). He just looked at them both, back and forth. Then, he put his arms out and went to Grandpa! He then decided to go back and forth between Memaw and Grandpa and give out a few kisses as he was doing going. Here is Luke with Memaw and Grandpa...

On Saturday was the Fall Carnival at Mommy's school. Luke wore his Halloween costume (a sock monkey!!!) for a little while, but it was too hot to keep it on long! Luke played a few games and saw a few animals at the petting zoo. His favorite part of the whole night was eating his first sucker....he loved it...and made quite a mess!!This afternoon we went back to the Petting Farm/Pumpkin Patch that we went to a few weeks ago. This time it wasn't muddy and Luke could walk!! Luke is not afraid of animals at all...he loved to touch/pet them! Luke even got to ride on the "wild" hay ride this time!
