Blowing Bubbles

Mom's version of the Sears baby portrait...

Playtime continues...

Luke may despise tummy time (which is not totally apparent in this picture), but he LOVES looking at images. Ironically, his absolute favorite image is of a cat...Matt hates cats. Like, really, really hates cats. Even the one we live with...poor Mazzy.

Daddy Made It!

Let the playtime begin...

Sittin' on Mommy's Lap...

...eagerly awaiting Daddy's arrival from work...

Baby Pirate

Right before he beat up that innocent little elephant...what a bruiser...

He sleeps...again

We work so hard to get him to take naps, but once he's down it is virtually impossible to keep our kisses off his little angel face...

Lil' Monkey

He Found His Hand!

Sittin' Pretty

Grins, grins, and more grins

Airplane!

Sleepy Head

The Land of Nod

Just in the past few days, Luke has begun to fall asleep on his own without being held...hurrah! However, it is quite an elaborate process with the little guy getting stuck in a far off gaze, then slowly closing his eyes only to suddenly throw open one eye to confirm our presence nearby. Open, close, open close...until FINALLY he goes down hard and takes on the face of an angel. For thirty minutes. So much for these 2 hour naps I've heard about...

Daddy's Arms

Oh, so comfy...

Big 'ol Baby

Believe it or not, after 9 weeks of life our little guy has sprouted up to 24.25 inches and 14.9 pounds! Stop growing Luke...momma wants to be able to carry you a little bit longer!
