February Part 1

February 1st-15th

I love his eyelashes.  They are long and gorgeous!

More bath time fun.  We moved Luke to laying down in the tub on a towel and he just loves it.  

Here's a video of how much fun he has!

Silly Faces

LOVE!

Here's me attacking Luke with kisses.  Please excuse my silliness.  I'm a little embarrased.  :)

Now Luke is attacking me.  Silly kiddo!

We went out and bought Luke a jumperoo.  Here he is the first time in it.  I think he likes it.  :)

 

Dad found us reading.  

Donald Duck and his nephews are very interesting!

He's seriously so sweet and makes me so happy!

Hanging out with dad!

Valentine's outfit from my mom

February 7th

Luke turned 4 months old!  We went to the doctor for a well check and more shots :(  I was without Brian this time, so I had to hold my poor baby down, but got to snuggle him quickly afterwards.  He's a trooper.  Here are his 4 month stats.

Weight- 14lbs 7oz (39%)

Length- 25 inches (51%)

He's doing well.  Doctor was pleased.  He did develop a fever for the next 24 hours and was definitely more needy.  Poor kiddo!

Look who discovered his legs and feet!

Brian got to give Luke a bottle for the first time.  Luke quickly drank it, but we've pretty much been unsuccessful since.  He prefers being breastfed.  Good thing I don't mind.  :)

More fun in the jumperoo!  We sure do love the faces he makes.

Brian bought a lotto ticket and he was crossing his fingers that we won...

Turns out we didn't, so Luke volunteered to eat the ticket.

Wearing and eating his hoodie!  :)

 

Valentine's Day!

Here's my little man all dressed up for Valentine's day!  He sure is cute!

His jammies say "Mommy's Heart Breaker"

Luke fell asleep in his swing one afternoon, as he often does and I found his thumb in his mouth!  He's adorable!

So sweet!

And to end this post, here's a funny video of Luke giggling!  We love his laugh!

January Part 2

January 16th-31st

Lots of cute videos!  We finally figured out that if we take shorter videos then we can actually share them.  We had several from the other months, but they too long and they wouldn't ever upload.  So glad we can share them now!

These are just of Luke "talking" and smiling.  So great!

Luke accompanied me to a Relief Society activity.  Everyone loved him!

He's starting to enjoy the carrier more.  He loves to see himself in the mirror.

Chatting with me while on our walk.  Love how serious his face is.

Hanging out with dad!

Time for dad to go to bed, but Luke is on dad's side.  he he :)

Giggling when I attack him with kisses!

Hanging out in the stroller while I blog.

More cute bath time pictures.

We bought Luke some Gdiapers, which are a type of cloth diapers.  We wanted to see how they work and if it's something we want to really get into.  We were getting discouraged with the price of disposalable diapers as well as the environmental impact.  Here he is modeling the green. 

Tummy time!  He's getting so good at holding his head up!

Playing with mom!  Oh how I love him!

Dancing with mom!  Please excuse my frumpy mom clothes.  One day I will wear cute clothes again.

Check out Luke's new shades from his grandparents in San Diego.  He's lookin' cool!

 

Brian singing "The Office" theme song to Luke.  Luke loves that song!

Happy Birthday to Brian!  Brian turned 35 on January 28th.  He requested pull-apart cake (or monkey bread) for breakfast.  Yummy!

Luke enjoys craning his head back...strange. 

Opening gifts!

Luke got Brian this awesome Star Wars shirt!  Get it???  Funny!

We went out for pizza at a local place as we had a gift certificate.  It was alright.  We're trying to find a good "go-to" pizza place, so we've been trying them all out.  Later that night we had cake.  Brian went through some recipes that we had pulled from different magazines and settled on a pecan spice cake with a maple frosting.  I made it.  Here's how it looked. 

It tasted good too!  Happy Birthday to my Brian!  Luke enjoyed celebrating too!

Luke playing with his arch nemisis "Octopus".  They are constantly wrestling.  So cute!

Then there are times that Luke just gives up the fight. ha ha

So, the next day Brian wanted another slice of his birthday cake, so I went to get him one and when I lifted the top off my cake stand, I noticed that the frosting had slide off the cake and part of the cake fell off and landed on the floor!  What?

Here's a picture!  Can you see the cake on the ground next to the fridge?  So strange.

I guess the cake was warm with the cover on and it caused the frosting to slide off.  Brian thankfully said it still tasted great!

Luke and "his Father"

Luke loves smiling in the mirror.  He sure does think he's cute!

Sleeping on mom!

I put him in his pack and play to finish off his nap and Brian went to take pictures of our little relxed sleeper.

Is that an eyeball I see?

Oh hello!  He's awake!  Love the face!

I love my baby!

Strolling with the shades on!

I picked up Luke after drying him off and the towel stayed on his head.  He looks so cute!

Giggling with dad!
