Luke's pictures

We had some pictures taken up at my parents farm a few weeks ago. View www.aunypolephotography.blogspot.com to get a sneak peek!

Water Jug

Luke has figured out how dispense water from the water jug! I have to admit, it is kind of funny. He holds down the nozzle, all the while looking at Sean or I. When we don't do anything he stops, waits a few minutes and does it again, continuing to look at us for a response. We have set up chairs around the jug to keep Luke from playing with the water jug. Until recently it worked, now the little monkey has figured out how to slide the chairs away enough to squeeze through and get the the spout. Needless to say, we are returning the jugs and dispenser next week. One less thing to worry about. I am convinced our new home will have no coffee tables, lamps, or anything within reach for Luke. It is much easier that way.

Our little walker. Luke has now chosen walking over crawling...he gets around very well and is always right where the action is! Gunner's life has changed tremendously! And below you will see why we call him our Monkey! This is one example of Luke climbing, other things Luke likes to climb on or up...the fire place, his gate, and he has found a way to climb up the stove by stepping on the drawer handle while holding onto the oven handle!

What Gate?

So the story goes, we are going about our every weekday morning as usual. Luke just finished his breakfast with mom and he was playing in the living room with dad. Mom went upstairs to brush her teeth, while dad left the room quick to refill his coffee. Luke loves to climb on his gate, yes he climbs up his gate. Sean was standing in the kitchen (most likely checking his email on his phone:) and when he walked around the corner this is what he found...

Gate on the floor

....and Luke 1/2 up the stairs

House update

The house is coming a long very nicely. As you can see from the pictures below they made quite a bit of progress in the last week. We are hoping to have the roof completely shortly. Sean is meeting with our builder out at the site tomorrow morning to go over a few things. We are getting so excited and now that we can envision each room we are very anxious to be in our home!

The top two pictures were a week ago (July 14th) and the bottom three are from tonight. (July 22nd)

Wordless Wednesday

"Love this little boy to pieces"

Luke is walking

Luke started taking a few steps here and there a couple of weeks ago right before his turned 10 months old. Lately he has been walking more and more, only when he feels like it. Well, tonight he was feeling it!!!!
(don't mind the messy kitchen or the chairs guarding the water jug...this is what our tiny townhome looks like "Luke proofed"

video updates

Luke loves to push around his little car. He crashes into the walls all the time! Good thing we aren't in our new house yet!

This is one of my favorite videos of ALL time! Sean making Luke laugh, and Luke giving his daddy kisses!
