12 Months Old Luke!





How did this happen? One year gone by so quickly! A year of so many firsts for our baby boy, trying to keep up with all of them is hard! Walking, running, kicking, tumbling keep our physical little one keeps busy all day along with constant babbling (mama, mas (for more), ah-mah (Hannah), bawl (ball), bye, and simply "bah" for many many things are the most popular words right now...waving bye-bye, high fives, "kisses" (slobbery open mouth smooch on your cheek)and snuggles are also some of Luke's favorite things to do. Since he started walking, he has trimmed down and his sizes are catching up a little, mostly wearing 12-18 mth and some 18 mth clothes - tall and lean like his sister he is in the 75% for height , 25-50% for weight (22 lbs) and 90% for head! Lukey often "sings" or babbles himself to sleep for naps and bedtime, loves playing/being outside, always crosses his little feet (stroller, high chair etc.), follows his sister everywhere & wants to play and do everything she is doing!




Luke is a VERY good eater and will try anything and everything we offer - loves bananas, pears, apples, avocado, green beans, peas, carrots, yogurt, all bread types, still not crazy about milk but we are working on it! He will eat any combo of fruit/veggie squeeze pouches, likes goldfish/crackers, LOVES watermelon, LOVES beans, drinks well from any sippy cup, straw, or regular cup with help and has started to self feed with a spoon simple things like mashed potatoes or risotto or mac'n'cheese. Always a bruise, or a scrape, or some sort of battle scar is visible at all times and I have lost count of the many times he has a busted lip - his six teeth (4 upper, 2 lower) have survived his spills so far - hallelujah! Luke still naps twice a day and goes to bed around 8pm waking up anytime from 6:30am to 7:30/8am. He is very loud...in his play and in his voice! Toys are constantly falling, and being tossed or thrown followed by squeals and whines/cries when things go awry all day long, every day...Luke plays so hard! Exhausting & oh so loveable, our Lukey keeps us on our toes, such a sweet sweet baby boy!
