Luke Turns 10 Months and A Tennis Play-Off

I forgot to post this amazing video from Kevin's baptism weekend.  Nana and Mimi decided to have a Wii tennis play-off and it was hilarious.  Notice Mimi in the foreground calmly playing not knowing what is going on behind her, watch out for the rath of Nana.

Watch out America's Funniest Home Videos, we have a winner.

This little monkey just turned 10 months, I can't believe it.  He weighed in at 23 lbs.  He is losing some of his chub because he's so active.  When we are at home he NEVER wants to be held.  He only fusses when he's hungry or tired.  When it's either one of those, he'll crawl over to me, climb up my legs, and raise his arms for me to pick him up.  Once he gets his bottle of milk and put to bed, he's a happy little man again.  He's really taken to muslin blankets, he likes to sleep with one cuddled up to him and lately he'll grab it before getting out of the crib and bring it with him, he'll suck and bite on it, but mostly just snuggles it up to his face.  When he has a blanket in his hand he likes to suck his thumb.  He is really so adorable, lovable, happy, and friendly.  Almost daily I find it hard not to squeeze him to death. 

On a side note:  When I dropped off Wyatt and Luke at the YMCA kids care, the sitters exclaimed, "We love Wyatt and Luke.  Wyatt is so kind and sweet and Luke is always just so happy."  If it's possible to love these kids anymore than I already do, comments like that from people make it happen. 

Snack time!

Last weekend we went to visit a local mission, about a 10 minute drive from home.  I love doing things like that, I forget how awesome this city is, how much there is to do, how much there is to learn, and how much history is here.

Wyatt really loved the bronze statues, he wanted to touch all the people, here he is rubbing Jesus's head helping him feel better.

Luke is such a little monkey, he loves the carrier.  I hope he walks soon and wants to do that, because he is getting heavy.  I tried him on my back and that was better for my back , but I missed his little cuddly, chubby arms wrapped around me.

The bell on the bottom left was cast in Spain and weighs over 700 lbs, the one on the bottom right was cast in the first California bell cast and weighs over 800 lbs.

It was a beautiful day.
