MY GUYS!!

Sorry I haven't added pics recently. It's been a crazy 2 weeks. I'll try to add a video of Luke tomorrow. Gotta go to bed now. Enjoy the pictures!

Some pictures from yesterday

It's hitting me...

Luke, Mommy, and Daddy came up with this one. :0)

I was sitting eating my dinner, my son in his high chair right in front of me, and it hit me. I only have a week left of summer vacation to spend with my little guy. I teared up a little and had to remind myself that he'll love going to "school" and learning all sorts of new and exciting things with his friends. I guess it's a little harder this year because he's talking to us now. We even joke around about stuff and he's funny. He's a little boy... ..not a baby anymore.

I love my job, don't get me wrong. Being a teacher is a "calling" for me, not just a job. It's just... ..well, time is passing extremely fast. I'm taking pictures and treasuring the memories as much as possible. Does anyone else feel my pain?

Tadoodles!

Luke enjoys coloring almost as much as he enjoys his baths!

Sticky Hair, Lily, and the new sandbox

Luke twirls his hair; even when he's eating. This leads to some funny Alfalfa-type hair styles.

My precious Lily

David found 50 pound bags of play sand at Home Depot. He filled the sandbox with 2 bags of sand.

Luke enjoying his sandbox

This picture was taken right before Luke dumped a shovel full of sand in his face. I have a picture of that, put it was just too pitiful to post. Even after eating the sand, Luke cried as I carried him off to his bath. I love my little toddler!
