My grandmas bday!

My grandma turned 80 on the 30th of Nov. My mom had a birthday party for her yesterday. We are so glad that we have our grandma around. She is such a great grandma. I hope that we have many more birthdays to celebrate with her!

I put a little bit of root beer in this glass for Lukas. He was getting a little fussy and I was trying to keep him happy. He loved it and thought he was so big for being able to drink out of a big kid glass.

Lukas spilled root beer all down his back. We ended up bathing him and luckily Jourdan had some six to twelve month jammies. We borrowed them so he could be all ready for bed.

Lukas loved Grandpas train. Amazingly though he didn't touch it. He didn't even touch their Christmas tree!

Sick Days

Our family seemed to have gotten the change of weather cold. We are on the up and up but it has been a sad week. Lukas and I haven't left the house once since Monday. On Monday we only went to have his ears checked. Ear infection free so hopefully it stays that way. Since we haven't gone anywhere we have watched a lot of Sesamee street. We have played with toys and gotten a lot done around the house. Lukas also now can roll a ball back and forth between us.

Lukas loves to play in his exersaucer and spin around in circles over and over again. He just lays back and rests his head on the back of it and goes around and around.

There has been a lot of temper tantrums this week. This one was because I told Lukas he couldn't have anymore smores bars! He wasn't very happy. I gave him a cracker instead.

Lukas blowing kisses! He is getting very good at these!

There has been lots of playing with my toys. Also lots of getting into things I am not supposed too.

We are most thankful for?!

In honor of Thanksgiving yesterday I thought we would do a post on the number 1 thing we are most grateful for LUKAS!!!! We are so grateful that he is in our lives. It was such a struggle to get him here. For the little moment of heartache we went through we got a thousand times more joy with his arrival. Lukas we are so grateful to have you in our family. We love you!

Lukas when he does silly things!

Lukas when he is smiling so big!

Lukas even when he is crying!

Lukas when he is sleeping. We are also very grateful for NO more bottles! So in honor of Lukas and his bottle I had to post a picture of him drinking from one. He has been bottle free for 1 week.

Christmas Cards

Today I got out Lukas's Christmas outfit. I wanted to take some pictures of him in it for our Christmas cards. I put the pants on him and they were huge! They just kept falling down on his hips and covering his feet. Once I put shoes on him it wasn't so bad if I rolled the bottoms. I just hope that he will grow a little bit so he can wear his 12-18 month clothes that I bought him this winter. We went over to my friend Madlyn's to take some pictures for our Christmas card. They turned out super cute and I was happy with them. Lukas wasn't having a very good day today so he wasn't that cooperative, however we still got some cute ones. I didn't include the picture that I am putting on our card because it is on my friend Madlyn's camera. Her camera was a little faster then mine so we got a really cute one of him smiling. Also it helped if I tried to entertain him while she took pictures. Thanks Madlyn for your great idea and letting us use your house!


Look how big my Christmas outfit is! Especially the pants!

Bed Head

Lukas woke up from his nap yesterday with some serious bed head. We just sort of laughed. Then we sat on the couch and Lukas climbed straight out of my lap so he could sit in Dans lap. Then he just kept giving Dan hugs. It was so cute. He must have missed his daddy while he was at school. We decided to go for a walk. So we put a hat on Lukas. He kept taking it off while we were in the house. He finally left it on as long as it wasn't covering his ears. We went outside and I recovered his ears because it was a little cold. I guess since we were outside he didn't care anymore and he left his ears covered.

This is how Lukas's hair looked after his nap.

Lukas wanted some loving from Daddy after his nap.

Just leaving on our walk. We put the hat on to cover up Lukas's bed head. He isn't sure if he wants to keep it on though.
