Swimming

Today we went out for a little swim. Last year Luke loved the water. This time, he was a little scared of it...at first. I put him in and he started to whimper...not cry! I sat him on the slide and he was okay with that. I played catch with the balls and then he saw the penguin swimming. He wanted it and I told him to get it. So, he got down and went after it! After that...it was all over....he LOVED the water, again! He loved going up and down the slide. He would get up there and sit down and when I said "GO", he would say "GO" and slide down. Then he would keep saying "I go" until he got back to the steps and would go down again! Here are a few pictures and a short video. I can't wait until we get to Memaw and Grandpa's and watch him in the water there.

Big Boy Haircut

I took Luke to get his 1st "real" big boy haircut. Yes, I know, he already had his curls cut off. And, he really didn't need a haircut. I just couldn't stand the long curls that were sticking out on the sides of his head! So, this afternoon I took him to "Cool Cuts 4 Kids". I was so worried that he would scream and cry and I would have to hold him. He sat right down and never even shed a tear! He even laughed when the trimmers were tickling him! He looks so handsome with his big boy haircut!!

I think he has his finger in his mouth in every picture because he's feeling his tooth that is just coming through. He now has 16 teeth!!

Happy Mother's Day

I have the most amazing job in the world....being Luke's Mommy!! I looked forward to being a mommy for so long and thankfully, a year and a half ago that dream came true. I am truly blessed to have Luke in my life. On this day I also have to thank my wonderful mom. She has been such a wonderful example for me. Luke and I are blessed to have her in our lives. Happy Mother's Day Mom!! WE LOVE YOU!!
Here are a few pictures...

The first time I laid eyes on Luke...

Random

Here are just a few random pictures that I happen to take the past week or so of Luke. Some of them are a little blurry because they were taken with my iphone...and any movement makes it horribly blurry!I LOVE this picture! He tried his hardest to reach through the fence and take a bat!Doesn't he look rotten?!?!Do you like my ride?Hewoo! Golf anyone?Luke decided to climb the tv stand...he wanted the candle (a pkg. of votives in a candle holder)that was in the back (that I had already hidden!)...he kept saying "cookie, cookie"!
