"Her" name is Luke

After almost 6 months of no blog posts, we are finally back!

Sometime during the Christmas holidays Luke "slimed" our digital camera making it virtually impossible to take or retrieve any pictures.
Brent and I ordered a new camera and got it just in time to take pictures of Luke's 1st haircut.

Brent was so frustrated with Luke being mistaken for a girl, that he had had enough and insisted we take him to get his haircut asap.
I thought Luke looked really cute with his long hair, but it WAS getting a little ridiculous having to tell people "her" name is Luke when they would say "Oh, she's beautiful, what's her name?"

Luke didn't do so well when we first put him in the chair, but once Brent sat with him and held him, he was fine.

Updated Pics from Thanksgiving and Christmas

I was able to salvage all of my pictures from our other camera that Luke slobbered all over right after Christmas!
Here are some pictures from the Holidays...better late than never, right?

Christmas is so much fun with a little one...I'm not sure who enjoyed it more though, Luke or his grandparents.

Pumpkin Patch

I was able to pull Brent away from football for a few hours this weekend to take Luke to the pumpkin patch. I found a really fun one out in Medina, about 45 minutes Northwest of San Antonio. They had farm animals, face painting, pumpkin painting, and lots of other things that Luke is too young for.
We walked around for a while and took TONS of pictures of Luke in the pumpkins.
I bought Luke a little pumpkin costume for Halloween so I thought it would be fun to dress him in it...he was definitely the cutest pumpkin in the patch!

Some silly pictures of Luke...

His shirt got stuck on his head while we were undressing him for his bath...he looked so funny!






His first day of daycare...

Things I Already Miss

Even though Luke is only 6 months, there are certain things I already miss about him being a newborn.

Like how tiny he was and his teenie little outfits
(he only weighed 5lbs. 9 oz.).















and how he used to suck on my nose while waiting for his bottle



and how he would get cross-eyed when he was trying really hard to focus



and how he would smile really big at the lights above his changing pad (still not quite sure what that was about)




and how he slept in the bed with me because he hated sleeping on his back and I didn't know what else to do to get him to sleep! (don't have any pics of him sleeping on me.)
The thing I miss the most though is being off of work and spending every second with him!
