Fall Fun

Pumpkin Patch

We didn't end up getting pumpkins...but had lots of other fun things to do...like chasing the turkey!!

Fun fall weather

These are the pictures inspired by the requests for a blog update. It was such a beautiful October weekend last weekend!! We spent the whole time outside. I told Luke to go stand by the pretty flowers so I could take his picture, and he wandered and played in the bushes for probably 15 minutes! I thought some of these turned out really cute. This is what he looks like right now!! Sweet as ever!


Really seemed like he was posing!! This is all him though, I was just snapping!!



All tuckered out. The early darkness makes it much easier to put Luke to sleep. Sunday night, he sacked out before 8, watching football...with frog on his head.
This morning he woke up soaked. As I was taking off his wet pj's he said, so clear, "mommy its cold!" A sentence!! He's getting so big its crazy, but always lots of fun!!

getting ready for school

Luke has developed quite an obsession with shoes. His own or anyone else's. He also loves to imitate!!
keeping daddy on his toes with the laundry (ha!)
More shoes. If he finds them laying around (imagine that at our house!) he puts them on!!

late summer

We've had some requests to update our blog...so here goes! Sorry for the long summer break for anyone who was checking (??) but we had lots of fun enjoying our time with Luke!

Outside Kid

Luke loves to play outside. Swings, sand, slides... He stands at the sliding door pointing outside and grunting, wanting to go play. He also seems to enjoy track meets, go figure, as long as they are warm and mom is there!!

Also into phones, not that daddy is ever on the phone....
