One!

Baby Luke is ONE! How did the year go so fast, and where did my baby go? He is a blessing to our family and we can't imagine life without him. We can't wait to watch his little personality take off in this next year.

The official stats will come next week, but for now:
~26 pounds
3 teeth in, 4th is soon to appear
crawls up and down stairs no problem
walks behind push toys and cruises furniture
has stood for ~1 minute on own
dances, waves, claps and says "uh-oh" appropriately
still an inconsistent nighttime sleeper! (He's crying as I type this...11:30 pm)
will often sleep ~9:00 pm -7:00 am, but you just never know!
naps are usually predictable (9:30-11:00 and 2:00-3:30)
adjustment time at daycare seems to be over and he's doing great with drop-off & napping
moved out of high chair and sits in booster at the table
stopped pumping 2 weeks ago (the longest I'd gone with any of the boys)
LOVES his brothers and they adore him!
done with baby food
has really only been sick one time when he had a high fever for about a day


Leaving the hospital


Our baby is a big boy now!


Happy Birthday, Luke! We love you very, very much!


PS: he cried about 10 minutes and is quiet now. I couldn't let him cry too long as I'm typing his birthday post!

Happy Birthday Lukey Bear! We all love having a baby around again and we couldn't have asked for a sweeter boy! You are soooo easy going with all the commotion that surrounds you with brothers, cousins, and friends. We're excited to watch you grow up and blend right into this craziness even more!
