Toddlers don't like blogs

Unroll your eyes - it's true! In Luke's eyes, computers are made for watching clips of monster trucks, not updating our friends and family with pictures of his magical face.

But, we won't give up! It's been four months and Luke has grown into "The Duke"... such a gorgeous little boy, and brilliant! I can't wait to catch you all up and keep this blog updated like the good ol' days.

To start, I'll say that Luke's life is quite enviable...

He's obsessed with planes, trains, and automobiles:














Prefers his dairy in its most delicious form:














Operates at two speeds - not running and running:


















Now knows the joy of Eggo waffles:














And doesn't have to do much to melt mama and dada's heart:













More to come...

Not sure how we got here...

Luke and Bear

This weekend, Luke invited "bear" into his world.  It started when bear needed a diaper and has now evolved to a party of three with "monkey".  These pics and video (linked to the post title) witness Luke's attempt to feed a picky bear.  I love how in the video, we see Luke talk through other food options bear might like (bar? no.  want goldfish? no.)...eerily similar to every mealtime with Luke.  The experience must have been so exhausting because it ended with a long nap curled up with bear.  I love this age...

Blast off!

Baby steps

Do not be fooled by these photos - this child does not eat bananas.  In fact, he has shunned them since I first introduced them at 6 months.  I must say, though, the fact that he took the banana out of my hand, touched it to his lips (ever so briefly), and held it while he finished the rest of his snack was a step in the right direction.
