Hello Again!


So, hello everyone! I'm so sorry I haven't written in so long, but life has been pretty crazy!


We've been so busy! In July we took a spur of the moment vacation to Indiana to see my Grandpa. That was great....12 hour drive with Luke wasn't so bad surprisingly. Then Jesse had to go to Texas for 3 weeks..it was awful! He came home on the weekends but I was still lonely. I stayed with my parents for 2 of the weeks and in the apartment by myself (well, with Luke) for the last week. After that, I had summer school and was still working part time at Baptist in LR. And I guess that brings us up to speed.


Cool Luke Facts:




  • Started crawling at the end of June


  • Was pulling up by July


  • Started using a push walker in August


  • No new teeth, but he's drooling and chewing on everything


  • Tried eggs...big NO-NO! Allergic reactions are kinda scary


  • Eats yogurt now everyday! and loves it!


  • Had ice cream for the first time last weekend at the Crackle barrel with Grandma and Grandpa McClendon


  • Cries now when Jesse and I leave


  • Moving to the sippy cup (a big boy now)


  • Still doesn't like real solids...spits them out


  • Eats puree meals, but still not sure about the level 3 jars


  • Wakes up every morning and stands in the crib, shaking the crib..haha


  • Is going for his first bike ride this weekend!! We got a bike seat for him! I'm so excited!

Sorry, I stole this format from you Amanda, but it just seemed easier so I could catch up. Hope you don't mind =) Thanks!



Eating at Chili's with my best friend, Susan! Luke loves the coasters!

Yep, he loves to eat them! He gave us a scare...when he pulled this out of his mouth, part of it was missing. Mommy had to fish cardboard out of his mouth. Yikes!

Well, guys, I hope to write more often. Sorry it's been so long!
