Our little fish Nemo.....

Luke learned this new swimming trick today! He is jumping into the pool off the diving board and absolutely LOVES it! He truly is a little fish these days and would stay in the pool ALL day if I let him!



Meet our little fish Nemo..... Why call him Nemo you ask? You know in the movie Finding Nemo, how little Nemo is attacked when he is just a little egg and subsequently grows up with one normal fin and a tiny little fin....well Luke has come up with a swim technique where he reaches with his left arm and "paddles" behind his body with his right arm resulting in what I have now named his Nemo Swim. Check it out and see for yourself. He does it almost every time and it cracks me up!

Birthday/Father's Day weekend!

FRIDAY:
Jeremy and I had a much needed date night and since we were also celebrating Jeremy's birthday, it was his choice and since it's been months since we've been to a movie, that's what we did. We went to the A team and I have to say that I was actually pleasantly surprised at how much I enjoyed the movie, too. I looked over at him at least 3 times and commented how awesome the movie was.


Busy SATURDAY:
We had a play date with Lucy and her parents planned for Sat. and decided to take the kids to both of their first movie's: Toy Story 3! They were both SUPER good it being their first movie and all!


The pop corn was bigger than Luke! Haha!


The thing that they were most excited about was the free puzzle they got!


After the movie, it was time for some relaxing in the pool! Ahhh!


Mae Mae came over to stay with Luke while the rest of us went out to dinner. Luke is always so happy for his Mae Mae to visit!


It was birthday boy's choice and so Ruth's Chris it was! Dinner was great! Happy Early birthday, Paynie!


SUNDAY: Father's Day!

Luke made the cutest "tie" Father's Day card at school and he was so excited to give it to Jeremy on Sunday morning.


We ended the day with a dinner at Steele wood! What a good looking group of guys!

Look Mom, No cavities!

Today was Luke's first visit to the dentist (I learned today that this may have been a year or two late, but hey, better late than never)! Luke was most impressed by the little door that was JUST his size.


Since this was his first time, he got to go in and meet Dr. Wells, who happened to be an old high school/ church friend of mine growing up. I was totally nervous about the cleaning part, but thankfully, Luke did great. He sat in the chair in my lap and let Dr. Wells brush his teeth. He even got his teeth cleaned with the electric brush which I didn't think would go over at all.


Look at my new clean teeth!

Happy Father's Day 2010

Happy Father's Day to the most wonderful father and husband any family could ask for. Thank you for being such a blessing to our family! We love you! Love, Jessica and Luke

Swim Video

This is Luke after two weeks of swimming lessons at the Club. If we let him, he would swim from me to the steps and then back again, literally ALL day long. On Friday, we were in the pool for over 3 hours that morning and an hour in the afternoon. I can't believe how far he's come!

Silly Dance!

Luke has rediscovered his Mickey Mouse piano that he got at Christmas time. It plays a series of songs, but his favorite (and by favorite, I mean that we get the pleasure of hearing it over and over and over again) is the 10 little indians song. At least we get the see his new silly dance that goes with it!

"I'm so proud of you!"

Luke was coloring in the kitchen when I overheard the following conversation between him and his Bear Bear:

"Hey Bear Bear, you wanna color?"
Oh, you want the blue one.
OK!
Aw Bear bear, you colorin'!
I'm so proud of you!"

I thought I would die from his cuteness. It made me smile and reminded me once again how much he mirrors what we do and say to him! In case it isn't obvious, I love this kid!
