Luke at 10 months (and Twilight:: Eclipse)

This week the next installment of the Twilight movies comes out: Eclipse. So I am excited and made these iron ons for myself and Luke.


I heart Twilight

Caution: baby vampire might bite when hungry

Luke is now 10 months old. He's still a little guy but we think he's the cat's pajamas.

Lord of the Rings vs Star Wars : The Quilt

My brother Canute is on a mission. This year for Christmas I will give him this gift.He designed it himself before he left, so it's not a surprise.

Memorial Day

Luke is now 9 months old. We celebrated Memorial Day with neighbors and friends.

Memorial Day

A sailing we will go

The other day while feeding Luke, I made up this nursery rhyme. I also included the notes so you can hear the tune.

All aboard the ship my crew,
all aboard mateys.
Ahoy, Luke! Ahoy, Luke!
A sailing we will go.
A sailing we will go.

Stash the cargo in the hold,
stow your trunk below.
Ahoy, Luke! Ahoy, Luke!
A sailing we will go.
A sailing we will go.

A compass and a treasure map,
a parrot and a patch.
Ahoy, Luke! Ahoy, Luke!
A sailing we will go.
A sailing we will go.

Around and round the sea we sail,
around the world we go.
Ahoy, Luke! Ahoy, Luke!
A sailing we will go.
A sailing we will go.

The notes piano style
f f f g a c c
f f f g a
c c a c c a
bflat a a g g f
bflat a a g g f


You could also put your own child's name in

the third line would be (c c a f c c a f) for a 2 syllable name,
(ccaaf) for a 3 syllable name, or (ccaaaf) for a four syllable name.

8 Months!

Luke is now 15 lbs 13 oz.


These are Luke's 8 month pictures. He's wearing an outfit sent by Greg's mom.





It's funny to me how different Luke looks in the three pictures.


Luke is now doing the army crawl. Don't take that to mean that he's slow. Because he can get to all the cords very quickly.

In other news, Bonnie ran over my foot at Best Buy. She was starting my car (to turn on the air) and it rolled a little bit (Stick shift). I was buckling Luke in his car seat. The car stopped on my toes. Bonnie and I were both freaking out and she couldn't restart the car. I finally wrenched my foot from under the tire because it wasn't that far under. She then was able to calm down and start the car and drive us home. It was brief but traumatic. I just got bruises. The end.

Happy Easter

Luke is now army crawling around the house. On this day, he was forced to wear a bunny hat while doing that.

He like to chase the eggs.




We decorated eggs, transformer style. We hope that everyone had a great Easter.
