Batter Up!

Just wants to be like his big brother!  So cute to see him go get these at the batting cages.  Batter up!

Standee Permitted

Hard to catch, so a little blurry, but this guy is standing on his own more and more!

Happy First Birthday, Luke!

Wow. Luke is one already!  Leyton even said it perfectly, "I don't want Lukey to be one. I want him to stay a baby."  So do I, but I'm excited to see him change, too. He's standing well, almost walking.  He enjoyed his cake very much after his favorite meal of spaghetti.  It was a great day. His shirt has a "1" on it, but that not is so busy it was hard to catch a good picture!  We sure love him.  And good thing, Patrick was in town this year! Ha, ha.  Sweet sweet boy.

Poolside fun

 

We've had a cooler summer. Hope we can fit in a few more days at the pool!

Luke: 10 weeks

So he does deserve more pictures, so maybe a collage of some past weeks will come.  But for now, here's the little guy.  He's doing great.  I'm cautiously optimistic, but he's had a few great nights sleeping lately...like more than 6 hours!  I've never had a baby do that even once this early, so we will see if it sticks.  He stayed home for Halloween and if anyone asks what he was for Halloween, my answer: "cute."  

First big night

So we moved the crib back to Luke's room tonight.  It will be his first night sleeping in there instead of in our room.  I've never made a habit of having a baby in our room, yet tonight it seems just.too.quiet. In my room.  Hopefully I can sleep...oh wait, that's why we moved him since we thought we were waking each other with any little noises.  Sure love that little guy!  

Our Seventh Heaven

Whoa check this out - they're all looking & reasonably happy (except for our wonderful newest addition - Luke Joseph, but he's not unhappy and we can still see him).

And what, who's that?  Mom made it into a picture?!  Who has the camera?  Thanks, Daddy, for taking one for us.  Sure loving this crew!
