Close Up of Lukey

I'm pretty sure he was again trying to take the camera out of my hands while I was trying to take a picture. Crazy kid.

Gotta love him!

Our Backyard

So this is a shot of our neighbor's RV.... er, a shot of our backyard. We have a very small yard, but Luke was enjoying it while Daddy grilled! Uncle Jonny, you'll notice that he's properly dressed. :)



He was pretty happy to be on grass for pretty much the first time in his life. He found a leaf that was pretty wonderful, and tried to eat some grass. Good times, good times. :)

Luke's First Walk in F-ville

A few weeks ago Andrew and I took Lukey for a walk around our neighborhood for the first time. It's lovely to live in an area where it's easy to go for walks! Of course, there were a lot of hills and I don't think my knee has recovered yet, but it was lovely all the same. Luke had a good time until a dog came and barked at us. That wasn't so much fun. It was also one of the few times the kid has been in a stroller. He's usually in the sling, but it was nice to have a break and just take turns pushing him along.











Once he saw the house he was ready to get out!

Luke and mKhulu

Kisses. 'Nuf said.

Dessert, Anyone?

Luke took it upon himself to unpack yet another box. This time it was kitchen items. This is how Daddy found him...


Looks like a sweet treat! He looks so proud of himself.

Phone Times

Luke and I found a box of his toys and he joyfully unpacked them all. He was particularly happy to see this phone, borrowed from Uncle Sam and Aunt Gina and cousins A and J. I think he likes the fact that it's loud and obnoxious (unlike the one Gramma and Grandpa got him for Christmas which is blessedly quiet... almost too quiet if that is possible).








He was too impressed with his find. I love this little boy!

Faces of Lukey

Luke and I were waiting for Andrew to finish talking after our church meeting one day. So we were playing with the camera...


What's over there?



"We represent the lollipop guild..."



Mommy is SO funny.



"Can I see the picture, Mom?"



Here's a great smile.



Mommy and Lukey together.



Ah, the picture we were waiting for.
