Happy 10 months Luke

 Luke turned 10 months old on March 6th. He is a very laid back child. He is not crawling or pulling up yet but he sure is working on it. He has tried spaghetti, teriyaki chicken, eggs, and biscuits. He loved them. He is beginning to feed himself with his hands. He has 4 teeth, 2 on the top and 2 on the bottom. He is completely off his bottles and on sippy cups but is still on formula until he is 1. He absolutely loves his brother, Will, and they have begun taking baths together. Luke cries when Will gets in the bath tub without him. Luke is also the one to splash all the water out of the tub. Life is fun with these boys!

Yep, decided it was time for an upgrade. Doug calls it my new school bus

Luke's first time riding in the Kroger shopping cart

Luke moved up to the creeper room at daycare! He's growing up too fast! 

Luke's 9 month check-up

Luke had his 9 month check up. He weighs 20 lbs and is 28 inches long. He's in the 50th percentile for weight and the 60th percentile for height. He's doing well and right on track. 

He is not crawling or pulling up so he is a little behind. He just hasn't had a lot of tummy time but we will be doing more of that! He loves sitting up and playing with his toys. He rarely naps because he is so busy playing. He is down to 3 bottles a day and 8 ounces in each bottle. He's tried juice in a sippy cup but is not crazy about it! He's also eating gerber puffs, yogurt melts, and level 3 chunky foods and thick level 2 foods. He has 2 teeth on the bottom but has 2 more fixing to break through on the top. He loves his brother, Will, and they even take baths together and it is so sweet. He's also started saying "dadda" and it drives me crazy! 

Love all those rolls on this sweet baby! 

Will's TOTs performance in Oxford

Will participates in a program at his school called TOTs. It stands for Teams of Tomorrow. It is a program that meets once a week and teaches the kids to dribble, shoot the basketball, roll the basketball, and several other concepts. It also incorporates colors, shapes, and numbers. It's a cute program and Will absolutely loves it! 

He had a performance in Oxford at the Ole Miss women's basketball game in the new Pavilion at Ole Miss. It was the first time we got to see the Pavilion and it is nice! We were both off on Monday due to President's day so we loaded up and got the boys early from school and headed to Oxford. We dropped some things off at the condo and then we went to the South Depot Taco Shop to eat dinner and then went to the game. 

Will's TOT group performed at halftime of the game and he got a little stage fright. Will stood on his dot the whole time. He was either scared Rebel Bear was going to get him, nervous, or couldn't find us. We were trying to get his attention and do his performance, but nope he wasn't having it! Oh well, it was cute anyways!

Happy Valentine's Day

Valentine's Day was last Sunday. We had a great day! We went to church and then Doug's parents came over and kept the boys while we went to Olive Garden and had a nice quiet lunch. After lunch we went to the grocery store and then came home and both boys were asleep. After they woke up we had gave the boys their Valentine presents. Will got 2 new trains, gum, and smarties. Luke got a new outfit and a new toy. I also got a new Yeti cooler cup and a handle. It is nice! 

Happy Valentine's from my sweet family

Happy 9 months

Luke turned 9 months old on February 6th. He is hilarious! He has his own little language going and tries so hard to communicate with you.

He finally has 2 teeth!! He cut them right around mid January. One tooth cut through and then a week later I felt another one coming through. His 2 teeth are so precious. 

He's not crawling yet but swimming as we say. He's getting more and more tummy time to make that happen. He's tried juice, eats Gerber puffs, tried mashed potatoes, eats oatmeal, and loves baby food. We are trying a new routine with him on food. We are increasing his bottles to 3 - 8oz bottles with snack and food in between. Let's hope it works. We tried a sippy cup with juice today and he did great! 

Luke loves to watch his brother play and laughs at him a lot. I can begin to see what these two will be like in the future! Luke can sit up really well by himself and play with his toys. He loves to bang things together and make noise. 

He wears a 9-12 months clothes and still a size 2.5-3 infant shoe. He's in size 3 diapers too.

He goes to sleep around 7:30-8 at night and sleeps till 7:15-7:30 when we are walking out of the house to daycare. He rarely takes a nap at home or at daycare. He maybe sleeps 30-45 minutes in the morning and maybe 30-45 minutes in the afternoons. He's not much of a nap taker. I'm hoping that will change soon. One day at daycare he slept all of 10 minutes but literally crashed when we got home and it was an early bed time too.

Luke is so much fun and he brings so much joy and laughter to our lives!
