Pink in the house!

Two weeks ago I had my cousins baby shower.  She is having a little girl in early August.

So much fun having little girl things in the house.  The funny thing is she and I were very close growing up even though she was always a Tom Boy and I was always into the dolls and purses.  So now look at us....I have the boys and she is having a girl!  I told her we can trade off from time to time.  She can take my boys camping and I will take her girl shopping:)

I never posted Luke's 5 or 6 month photos.  Life is busy!

He has his 6 month Doctor appointment this Monday so we will see how big our chunky monkey is!

He currently is wearing a size 3 diaper.  I have moved into the "cruisers" because the "swaddlers" don't seem to fit around his waist as well.

He wears size 9 and 12 month clothing.

Many things have been going on with Luke over the past two months.

He started to eat solids.  At first we tried rice cereal.  He did not seem too impressed, so it was a while before I tried something else.  So far he has had sweet potatoes and green beans and likes to eat now!

He also got in the swimming pool for the first time and this past weekend had his toes in the ocean!

He started saying Dada this month loves to shout and scream.  He is a louder baby than Hank was.  He still loves to jump up and down in his jumperoo, and play with a few toys.  He got a Sofie the Giraffe teething toy this month and he loves it. He also likes to use our chins as teething rings!  He has not been sleeping as well as he once did.  Not sure if that is related to teething, but he is becoming spoiled, just like Hank.  He wants to be in our bed and has been waking up in the middle of the night.

No Bow Ties!

Life has been busy busy busy!  It is hard to find time to post, but I wanted to post about Luke's baptism.  It was the last Sunday in April and turned out very nicely.  Hank went up to the front of the church with us and things were kind of dicey, because he was not listening to us very well!  Thankfully Pastor Carletta included him in the service and that helped a lot!

At some point the day before the baptism Hank told me he did not want Luke to wear a bow tie.  I had no idea what he was talking about.  He said:  "You said Luke Thomas was going to to wear a bow tie and go to church!"  I finally figured out he meant go to church and get baptised!  So funny!!
