Luke's first haircut

So Josh and I have been noticing for awhile that our sweet boy needed a haircut but this was definitely new territory for us with him being so young. Emmy didn't even have hair until she was almost 2 and we didn't have it cut until she was 2 1/2! But Luke on the other hand, his hair was almost halfway over his ears, haha! So, we took him last night and he did great, and so did the stylist! He sat "still" until the very end but she was able to finish it without giving him an accidental buzz cut :) Here are some cute pics of the big event!

 

Check out my new do'! 

Doesn't he just look like such a little man?!

*Before pic

(The little car was definitely a much needed distraction!)

  

How priceless is this face???

All done! 

9 months!!

Today we had Luke's 9 month check up with the Dr and the whole time driving there I kept thinking....how can our boy be 9 months old already??!! :) Sigh...it truly is crazy how fast the time goes. Here are his numbers from today and a few fun things he's been doing this month!!
 

Weight: 22.8 lbs. 90%

Height: 30 in. 95%
 

-Crawling everywhere!!! (And getting into trouble of course!)

-Saying da-da and ma-ma (and yes, Josh like to rub it in that he said da-da first! ;)

-Eating table food, so far there isn't anything this boy won't eat!

-Wearing 12-18 m clothes

-5 teeth!!

-Belly laughs (one of the best sounds in the whole world)
 

Our silly boy :)

Enjoying his 1st pancake

You can't see this in the picture but he's just about to grab one of his sister's toys, hence the sneaky look, haha!

Luke loves feeding himself...and also doing his hair afterwards!

Mommy's Little Helpers

Doing laundry is much more fun when I have these two cuties helping me!!! ;)

February Fun :)

Here are a few pictures we've taken so far this month, enjoy the cuteness!

 

These two just love each other, it's so sweet!! 

Luke is doing so great drinking from a sippy cup! 

Emmy & Josh doing her Passport Project that she gets

every month in the mail, thank you Papa & Grandma! 

8 months old today!! 

As you can see, Luke is now mobile!! He can crawl/scoot backwards

but is still working on going forwards. That's how he ended

up underneath the couch, haha! 

Luke loves to wave!! 

Here's a picture of Emmy on stage getting ready to sing with the other kids at church :) 

 

Luke enjoying the swing at Miss Carol's...can you see his 2 front teeth now too?? 

Pajama time!!

I couldn't resist sharing this....Emmy and Luke sitting in Josh's chair together before bed. Luke absolutely adores his big sis, you can already tell. And she has loved him since the moment she heard he was coming. She still whispers a special goodnight wish to him, just as she did before he was born. Instead of kissing my tummy and saying, "Goodnight precious baby, I love you" she now kisses his forehead and whispers "Goodnight brother, I love you" (except it comes out "brudder") and it is the sweetest thing ever...Thank you Father for these two precious children you have given us, we are so truly thankful for them!

Mamma Mia!

Last night, Emmy and I made homemade pizza together! Since she loves to cook/bake so much, Grammy & Gramps got her her very own cooking utensils and supplies for Christmas! She was so excited to make her pizza all by herself and boy was it good!! Way to go Pizza Chef Emmy!! :)

6 months!!

Our "little" boy sure is growing! :) At his 6 month check up last month he was 21 lbs and 29 inches long!! Above the 98% in every way, haha! He is in 9 month clothes and some 12 month clothes already. He is also eating lots of new food now, has 2 teeth and is laughing, smiling and "talking" all the time! He is such a sweet boy, we love you Lucas Ray!!!
