Sorry....

Sorry about the upside down photo of Luke and Lily on the previous post!

I absolutly CANNOT figure it out, and I've done everything I know to do.

I'm waving my little white flag on this one.

Enjoy, regardless!

Some Random Pics from a Couple of Weeks Ago....

Two weeks ago, Marc spent a week in Chihuahua, Mexico, for his job at Cessna.

Marc also took this same trip back in November.

While Marc was gone, I was going to take a bunch of photos of Luke to put on this blog for Marc to see.

I didn't get that done, and I don't really have a good reason.

But, I did take a few pics, and by a few, I mean 6.

So, here they are....Ultimately, these photos are for Marc, but in case the rest of you are interested -- here they are.

Luke does like to sleep in his "car jammies" right now. Most mornings, he likes to leave them on for quite awhile -- assuming we don't have to be anywhere.





One evening while Marc was gone, Luke and I went to my parents' for supper.

My mom has an old-fashioned gumball machine in their "grandchild play area." But, she doesn't have gum in it. She has M & M's.

Needless to say, the gumball machine is a HIT with the grandkids -- Luke included.

Luke sat for awhile and ate M & M's at their house. Yep, we had to limit him on the candy :)

Luke likes to sit at their little table and have his "snack."



Luke wanted Grandma to sit with him. Of course, she obliged!



Luke's little friend, Lily, came over one morning that week. It was nice enough to put both kids in the wagon and spend some time at a local church playground.

Though it was nice, Luke insisted on wearing a stocking hat -- funny little guy!



And, remember how Luke likes glasses AND hats?

Here's a new favorite pic of mine.

The Lawnmower Fascination Continues....And I Hope It Stays....

If you read this blog last summer or if you know Luke in person, you might remember that Luke has a SERIOUS fascination with lawnmowers: push lawnmowers, riding lawnmowers, big lawnmowers, small lawnmowers.

I LOVE IT! It's very cute....

Since the weather's been a bit nicer lately (don't include the last 4-5 days in that statement), Luke has been BEGGING Marc each and every day (when he gets home from work) to go outside and "see Daddy's lawnmower."

Marc has indulged Luke's request.

So, they head outside....with Luke's little lawnmower in tow.



Then, Marc opens up the shed and together, he and Luke get out the lawn equipment.







Sometimes, though, a 2-minute break is taken for the sandbox.



And then, it all continues for a bit longer....until there are tears when Marc says it's time to go inside for supper.



Marc and I both have an interest in business (we both have business degrees). Perhaps this mowing fascination will continue AND Luke will inherit our interest in business, and then, Luke can have one hoppin' mowing business someday :)

Until then, I'm going to simply enjoy our little guy's fascination because BOY -- it is C.U.T.E.

I'm Ba-ack....

Nope. I didn't go anywhere.

I just got out of the "blogging mood." Fortunately, that mood was temporary.

And, I'm very happy to report that nothing is really wrong. But, I truly do thank those of you who have questioned why I haven't blogged. First, I'm happy to hear that some people do really read this blog. And two, it touches me that you care.

Soooooo, how about I start up with a "typical" Monday thing -- at least on this blog?

I'll list out our meal plan for the week. And, of course, I'll put on a few photos of Luke :)

Some of you who know Luke in person know that he REALLY likes to wear his sunglasses around. For Christmas, some very good friends of our's gave Luke a Mr. Potato Head.

Luke has recently taken to wearing the Mr. Potato Head glasses on his face with his actual sunglasses on his head.

This is documented with this photo....It's a little blurry. I took it with my phone.



Also, if you know Luke well, Luke likes to wear hats -- mainly his Daddy's hats, but he'll wear other hats as well.

Recently, Luke has taken to wearing two hats (sometimes even three) at a time.

I don't stop him from it, generally speaking.

Several weeks ago, Luke and I went to Subway for lunch. He insisted on wearing two hats, and I let him do just that. Yep, he did quite a few "cute" comments.
