Random Happenings....

The other morning I heard Luke playing before I got him out of bed and when I went into his room he said "LOOK! We are having circle time just like at school!!!" He had arranged all of his sleeping buddies into a circle and was singing songs to them just like his teacher does. It was pretty darn cute!


I am SO EXCITED that Luke is now old enough to be in 3 year old choir! We had the kick off for Music and Missions this past Wednesday and it was wear your silliest shoes night. Check out who got to lead the parade down through the dining hall!....He was so proud!


Luke got to pick out his very first lego set at Target a few weeks ago for going to the potty like a big boy two days in a row. Jeremy is super excited that they can "play" with legos now! I love Luke's concentration face!


I love how Luke is looking up a Jeremy! I think Luke could tell that Daddy likes legos A LOT! Haha!


By George, I think we Got it!!! Luke's new teacher, Miss Christie, has a treasure chest that you get to pick a toy out of if you go number two at school and guess what?.....Luke got a toy last Friday! More about the potty training in another post, but all I can say is WHEW! I am glad he finally GOT it!

Beach weekend!

The whole Murphy clan spent a long weekend at the Turquoise resort in Orange Beach. When we were driving down, Luke kept saying "I wanna go to the yellow beach!, where is the yellow beach?" and I kept telling him I didn't know anything about a yellow beach and then it dawned on my that he was meaning to say "orange beach." It was TOO funny! One of the many things Luke loved was the zero entry pool! He swam to his little hearts content.


We all enjoyed the Lazy River or as Luke called it the noisy river.


Some of us enjoyed some pool volley ball while others of us enjoyed watching! (I'll let you guess who was in which camp!)


I was amazed at how beautiful the sand and water were! The sand was a white as ever and the water was a clear as I have ever seen it! We could see sting rays, schools of fish, and sharks from our balcony.


We only ate out one night over the weekend and the rest of the time we took it easy and cooked dinners and lunches @ the condo! It made life with a 3 year old much easier!


Everyone enjoyed our private jacuzzi on our balcony, but no one more than Luke.


This was the view from our room! I wish we were still there!!!

I wuv dis!

Luke had such a great time at the beach this past weekend! He especially loved the in door water slide. You can hear him say the second time down the slide "I wuv dis! So much fun!" Check out his crazy swimming skills, too!

Break from blogging...

SO much is going on around here that I have been a bad bad blogger. And with Luke fighting a mystery stomach bug since last Saturday, the blog has been all but abandoned. Hoping a long weekend at the beach will cure us all and that I will back to blogging as normal next week!
