Milestones

Well, unfortunately, it has been about a month since our last update. I guess I haven’t really followed through with my plan of updating more frequently. Luke is keeping us very busy. He is crawling all over the house! He doesn’t do the traditional crawl yet, but he does an “army crawl” scooting on his belly. It gets him where he wants to go, which is usually to the plants we keep in the house, floor fans and any cords he can get his hands on. We seriously need to baby-proof the house, but I’m not sure we can get rid of all the potential hazards. Luke also got his first tooth! He is so cute with his one little tooth.

We have gone to several playgroups. Now that most of the babies are mobile, they interact more and it is so much fun to watch them play together. We have been to the pool a few times. Luke seems to like the water, unless it is too cold. Luke will be nine months old on June 16. He is trying to pull up on things. He hasn’t quite gotten it down yet, but I know he will soon. Luke’s little personality is really developing. He is really social and he is very animated. He makes all kinds of faces. Here is a picture of Luke when he crawled into the bottom part of his exersaucer:

June is such a busy m

onth for us. On Saturday, my beautiful Mom turns 50 years old! I hope I look as good as she does when I am 50, that’s for sure. Mark and David also celebrate a birthday this month, on the 11th. Sadly, Mark will be out of town for his birthday. He has a work conference in Colorado that week. When he gets back, we get to leave for Luke’s first ever Woodson family reunion. We are so excited to introduce him to a lot of my family that hasn’t seen him yet. Then the weekend after that, I am going to Birmingham for my good friend Tara’s wedding. I am really excited to go and see my best friends from high school. It will be the first time I am away from Luke for more than a few hours. I know I’ll make it through, but I sure will miss him.

Shauna and Jeff are all moved in to their new house in Kingsland. It is really cute. The nursery for Lily is adorable. I hope Shauna will post some pictures soon. I cannot believe my baby sister will be a mom in just a few weeks. I can’t wait to see precious little Lily. Shauna and I figured out that Luke and Lily will be in the same grade at school. That’s pretty neat.

I’ll close with a picture of Luke wearing the little British soccer uniform David brought back from England last July. We’ve been waiting for the day he could finally wear it.
