Luke and Julia

These two are quite the pair when they get together to play! Julia used to bully Luke quite a bit, considering she has two older brothers to deal with. :) Lately, though, Luke's started sticking up for himself and it's never dull when they are together!

Please Meet Luke's....

SISTER!!!!!! We had our ultrasound this evening and discovered that we are having a girl! I think Jonathan and I both were surprised--but very excited! :)

A Little Madness!

It's that time of year again--March Madness!! Luke is getting into it about as much as Jonathan and I are! I had the game on this afternoon and he decided to lay back, relax, and watch it with me (and Peyton, too, apparently!).

Luke loves his cars and trucks. They are his favorite toys right now. Every day, he lines them up on the window sill. And every night, he puts them to "bed" (or rather, with all the other toys for the night).

We went to the bank this week and they gave Luke a sucker. He finally was able to have it today for his snack since he ate all of his lunch! It was only his second sucker ever, but he knew what to do! :)

Here are just a couple videos of Luke enjoying a little b-ball and his sucker. I love hearing him say, "shoot it!". He definitely loves basketball, which his Uncle Jacob and Grandpa Moore will appreciate! :)

By the way, our neighbors have a huskey named Meko that plays with Peyton a lot. Luke saw he had a huskey of his own and immediately referred to it as Meko. I was pretty impressed!

Aunt Emily Comes to Visit!

My sister and her friend came up to visit us this past weekend. It was great to see her, as always, and Luke really enjoyed all the extra attention! :)

Emily thought it'd be fun to take a ride in Luke's cozy coupe.

Luke had his hair gelled, compliments of our friend Kristin. I think she was going for a John Travolta look?

Luke and daddy after church--so handsome!

More Pictures, Videos, and an Update!

Luke decided it looked like fun to play in the dirty clothes basket. I knew he was up to something when it grew suddenly quiet...

Finally a picture of Luke in daddy's shoes. I think they really complete the outfit, don't you? :)

So I know I've been posting a lot of videos lately, but Luke is just learning and doing so much, I can't help myself! :) I know it looks like he's just sitting on the counter by himself, but I had a hold of him, don't worry. ;)

Luke loved watching "Miss Pattycake" while up at Jonathan's parents' cabin. She's kind of like a Donutman/Psalty character. Anyway, she sang this wiggle song and Luke loved it! He sings it all the time now. Don't mind my singing...

As for the update, I'm currently 18 weeks along. I feel great and don't even feel pregnant, except for my ever-expanding belly! I went to the doctor today and everything looks good. The baby's heartbeat was in the 130s. We have the ultrasound in two weeks, so hopefully baby will cooperate and let us find out if it's a girl or a boy! We can't wait!!

Meet Luke's Friends

Luke has these three stuffed animals that he absolutely adores. Every bedtime and naptime, he has to round them up (because he's been dragging them all over the house with him) and throw them in bed with him. By the time I tuck in Luke, his three stuffed animals, and his blanket, there isn't room for much else! :)



Luke's all-time favorite food: applesauce! We cannot even put the jar on the table during dinner until after he has eaten everything else. Otherwise, he will refuse to eat anything and just point and yell, "Sauce!!".

Quick Getaway

On Saturday, we had a wedding in Goshen, Indiana which is just a couple hours south of us. My whole family was there, which was nice, and after the wedding we went to my parents' lake place to spend the night. Luke loved seeing Grandma, Grandpa, Aunt Emmy, and Uncle Jacob!

"Mmmm! That's some good cake!"

Okay, so I know that Luke is wearing, like, the worst outfit ever to a wedding, but there is a valid explanation. I had the cutest outfit picked out and, well, forgot it at home in his closet. So then the outfit he was wearing in the car on the way down (which was slightly better than the one in this picture, mind you) he decided to pee through during the wedding, leaving this sad thing for the reception. My husband won't let me live it down. :)

Saying good-bye to Gramma and Grampa. You can't really see it that well, but Luke is holding the stuffed dog they got for him. He absolutely adores this thing and calls it, what else, Peyton!

I just love how Luke is looking at Grandpa in this picture!

What a Shot!

Finally I got some video of Luke's amazing bank shot. I'm not biased or anything, but I seriously am impressed!! :)
