Chalk it is

Let me just say that it was a good thing no one else saw this kid after this... I tried and tried to scrub the chalk off his legs, but it didn't come off. He looked all bruised up! His legs were purple, blue, and green for days.

Needless to say, he thought it was pretty cool!

Popsicles are fun!

The kid now asks far too frequently for a popsicle, but boy does he have a good time. And really, they're so easy to make that they're a great summer treat. I got a free set of popsicle molds from doing a few reviews for Franklin Goose and have had fun. I can't wait until he finishes the current batch (only one more to go, I'm sure it won't be long!) so that I can try a blueberry and spinach blend (think frozen green smoothies!). I'm excited and I'm sure he will be, too.

Happy about his lot in life...

Yummmmy!

Mom, it's cold!

Sleepy mornings

Here is our cozy little guy early one morning all cuddled up on the chair. He's a sweetie!

Smile for the camera!

Better

Here is Luke showing off his New River Coal addiction... Around the Mackay household we loving term this song "Uncle Sam's Song." Hope you enjoy the dazzling vocal talents of Mister Luke Mackay.

Runway Luke

Here Luke is showing off the new style of shoes. I wish you could see the shoes better, but they are definitely stylin'. These particular shoes are Aunt Jena's shoes. He has even dubbed a woman in one of his books "Aunt Jena" because she wears high heels. It makes me laugh. He was quite proud of himself.

More splash mat fun

More fun in the sun.

Luke's motorcycle

This is the famed motorcycle that we are borrowing from a sweet aunt and uncle whose boys no longer have need of it. Luke is in love. At our church, all the slightly older kids (the 4-12 group) all bring bicycles to church and ride after the meeting. Luke was constantly asking where his bicycle was. It was heartbreaking, actually. Plus, he used to pronounce "bicycle" really oddly. It was cute. And now, he has a "bicycle." He loves it. His face lights up when he rides it. I am so thankful for it. :)

Here it is in all it's glory.

Here is the kid asking if he can ride it "rightchere?"

And, the other day I heard him crying and calling for me. When I went to rescue him, I had to get a quick picture first. He was pinned between the motorcycle and the fence. But he was pretty darn cute.

Luke and Daddy rockin' out

Here are my two precious boys. Luke was enjoying hanging out with Daddy and sharing musical interests...

How sweet is this picture?

And, here is a short video showing off what Daddy's been teaching Luke. What a goofball!

I totally should have saved this post for Father's Day...

Luke's "Fwash Mat"

Luke really enjoys his splash mat. This first time we got it out, it was SO cold. But I had told him we would get it out, so we did. He had such a good time.

I love the look on his face in this picture. It's like he's asking permission to touch the water. Love him!

What is with this kid trying to eat the water?

Tentatively reaching out...

What a happy little guy.

Luke's favourite part of the garden

Due to my lack of posting lately, I'm not going to bother with many words. Luke loves the sprinkler. End of story.

Love this expression!

Silly boy kept trying to eat the water!
