I can't believe how busy life has been the past few months. Luke and I have enjoyed having Mimi and Papa here this winter. We are going to be sad when they leave for Ohio in a few weeks. But...Luke will have swimming lessons twice a week in May to keep us busy. And, then in June we will be heading to Ohio!!!<br />We hope everyone has a wonderful Easter weekend with their family. Remember the reason for Easter...it's not the bunny! </div><br /><div align="left">Here are a few pictures of Luke.

I was really afraid that Luke would get restless and not want to sit. And, it was right around his nap time. But, he was sooo good!! He sat in his own seat during the whole rodeo and watched the whole thing! A few times, he got sleepy and would lay his head on me....but, I was so proud of how he did!! He loves seeing the "moo moo's" and would ask where they were if they weren't in the arena at that time. Maybe I've got a cowboy on my hands?!?</p><p align="center">This was the only picture I took during the rodeo.

Luke had fun seeing all the animals....he didn't know they were stuffed!! Ha! We left and went to Mt. Scott....only for it to be closed!! We have no idea why it was close...the weather was nice and clear. I was sad! So, we went on and ate lunch at Meer's. If you've never been...GO!! It's yummy! After lunch, we decided to go to Holy City and look around. Luke got to see several prairie dogs along the way!

Every Sunday at church, he runs into the sanctuary to sing. We went in the doors of the chapel and Luke took off to the center isle. He ran up the isle--who cares that there were chains across, saying "keep out"--and gets on the pulpit and starts singing!!! He knew exactly where he was! Watch out...we might have a music minister on our hands!Melissahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09253720092249195091noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2437149852871489048.post-70037419438806004162011-01-11T11:49:00.004-06:002011-01-11T12:01:48.192-06:00Christmas<div><div><div><div>I know...I'm a little late!

He really "got into" the whole idea of Santa. He calls Santa "Ro Ro" because he can't say Ho, Ho, Ho and in turns, thinks that is Santa's name. He woke up on Christmas and saw all of his wonderful gifts. His favorite things were the basketball goal and the guitar! Of course, after we got all of our gifts opened, we had to play with everything!!

He sat in the front seat with Papa and just watched out the window (and hung out the window some!). He loved them. They also had some rides there. Luke rode the Carousel three times...once with Mommy, once with Mimi, and once with Papa. We also got him to ride the Dizzy Dragons (Tilt O'Whirl). We thought he would be a little scared...but, NO. He laughed so much on the ride.

It was a lot of fun seeing the kiddos in their jammies and waiting for Santa to arrive. I'm not sure a lot of them realized what was going on...until Santa rang the doorbell! I was kinda worried about how Luke would do. As soon as Santa came in, Luke came running to me scared! He had me pick him up, but then he wanted to shake Santa's hand. After Santa visited and started pulling gifts out of his bag, Luke wasn't as scared. Actually, he was quite funny. He kept inching closer and closer to Santa, waiting for his name to be called. At one point, he even pointed at himself and said his name because he wanted Santa to call it. Once Santa called his name, he couldn't get to him fast enough as he came running around the couch! I'm so glad that Luke (and all of the kids--and their parents)enjoyed it. I'm ready for next years! Here are a few pictures that I took. </div><div align="center"><br />Some of my mom's yummy sugar cookies.

Luke wouldn't sit by himself, but he didn't scream and cry! He shook Santa's hand and kept saying "Ro-Ro". If you ask Luke what Santa say's, he will tell you "Ro, Ro, Ro". He can't say Ho, Ho, Ho. Therefore, he thinks Santa is Ro-Ro. I think it's pretty darn cute! :) He gets so excited when he sees a picture of Santa or sees him on tv.<br /><div><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 240px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5547686267584385698" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj2ZMrP7fPwWr-63r1VG540WRzYVXNf6sDbaOAqfQ-Gz2Y_8UUkySzyg82ZJ0u1derF_YV3lSsQETXia9VP8z2iRv8vD2tDxad20VjBItarZ-MKE1NswdNXNHVgHsh6nDlA60u0Lemao5ba/s320/IMG_2311.jpg" />This one is kinda hard to see.

He had several friends come and celebrate with him (thank you Aunt Sue for driving all the way from Okla for his party!). The kids played on his new swing set, drove each other around in his car, played with the bean bags and ate cupcakes. Everything was great...until...the swarm of the BEE's!! We had to move the party inside once the bee's smelled the cake!

It was exactly what I wanted and cheap...so I bought it. But, it was black and wouldn't go with his room, so Papa sanded it down and painted it navy blue. It looks so good with his bedding...I LOVE IT! Last night, Papa and I were putting it together. Luke kept pointing and telling us "night, night". After we got it finished and all of the bedding on it, Luke climbed in. He didn't want to get out! Luke slept all night in his big boy bed!!!

I didn't get a lot of pictures, but I will share what I did take! :) On Friday we went to Central (Mommy's high school) for Homecoming. Luke wasn't too interested in watching the girls in their dresses....but, he sure had fun playing in the gravel and throwing rocks! During the game we stood in the end zone (which was where the scoring was going on) and he stood there and watched the boys, kept saying "ball" and was clapping! It was tooo cute!<br /></div><div align="center">This was Luke picking flowers during the first part of the football game!</div><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 240px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 320px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5527575819016689842" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj0QPvz2pRgeK0e4RsCC6_oocy70upH7KqQSja50-RTfgZFEljQ1LIJuHE-iWC658a6JKkuUL2Zxiva4XgfQ2weI9DQhSM9iSxc78eKxJlOfdZZ3Vblh-PcMwamhPMGimKZyrwDWmmy20Zj/s320/iphone+128.jpg" />The rest of the weekend we just visited with family and friends.
