Visits with Friends

Luke was quite excited to have Uncle E.Lee and Aunt Deborah and most importantly, baby Cameron come for a brief visit last week. Luke talks about Cameron all the time and it's really sweet. They were able to stop by for a couple of hours on their way home and it was a lovely little visit.

Luke love to hold "Baby Camra." At their last visit, he could actually hold him... this time, not so much. Cameron's growing fast!

Look at this sweet face... and also the adorable fluffy cloth diaper bum!

Luke is in his element. He was so sad when they left, but so happy while they were here.

"Pwease Mama, I can hold him?"

Lukey's New Bike.

I've been drooling over balance bikes since before Luke was a year old. Now that he's actually old enough for one, I've been struggling to justify the cost. Then I found a really cost-effective one and I am so excited. He just received it yesterday and is already becoming a pro. :) I love to watch him ride and hopefully it will be great prep for a two wheeler with pedals. Probably more to come on this later! Also, please excuse the messy house. Potty training equals Mommy doesn't do as much housework as she should! But he's doing great on the potty training front. :)

Silly Face?

That's all.

Mr. Brown

Luke absolutely adores our neighbor, Mr. Brown. I don't think I can describe the excitement that fills his entire little body when he sees him coming up the driveway. He runs to watch him through the window and begs to go and talk with him. Of course, Mr. Brown is a fabulous sport and chats with Luke like he's the most important person in his day. It is really special for me to watch them interact. We have a wonderful neighbor. (Plus he often shares his watermelon with us!) The delight that one man can put on my son's face is priceless. Thanks Mr. Brown!

Trains to play on

Luke and I went to the pool a few weeks ago with some cousins and friends. Lo and behold, they had an old train engine there to play in/on. Luke was in love. I think he liked it better than the water slide, which he really loved. Hopefully I'll get a better picture soon, but he was definitely having a good time!

Just chillin' in the grass with Dad

Thanks Gramma and Grampa for the Toy Story tattoos. They are a big hit.
