Luke

I love this little guy so much! I also love how blond his hair is!! I hope it stays.
He is so sweet, and he loves his daddy so much. He is definitely a "daddy's" boy.

Luke is beginning to talk more and more. Most recently he has begun to pray. When we say, "it's time to pray," he bows his head and says, "Dear Jesus...." He loves to say all the animal noises when asked. He loves clapping and waving at people. He LOVES to eat. I don't think there's a food that he doesn't like:-) He also loves music and dancing. It is so much fun watching him get excited when I put on a cd.

He is so precious to me and Jordan. We love our Lukedee, as Jack calls him!

Zoo & Anne of Green Gables

This morning I took the boys and Diana to the Zoo. We had a nice time looking at all the different animals, but to Jack & Diana's sadness the elephants were not out today.
Luke was pretty sleepy from the get go so our stay was not very long. We whizzed through all the exhibits, and rushed home to put Luke down for a nap.
After putting Luke to bed, I made lunch for Jack and Diana (every time I write our their names I think of that John Mellencamp song:0))and then went upstairs to watch Anne of Green Gables. Jack even went into his room to get blankets, pillows, and animals. It was so cute!
We are having a great time with Diana!

Summer Pictures

We just returned home from South Carolina. We went for Aunt GraceAnna's bridal shower, and then to spend some time on Fripp Island.
Jack and Luke had so much funplaying in the sand, eating sand (Luke), and taking golf cart rides to feed the deer. It was a fun getaway!

June 12, 2009

Today was a great day. Jordan took the day off from work to celebrate our anniversary, and we had my twenty week ultra-sound appointment that he didn't want to miss. Our appointment was early so we had to wake the boys and feed them breakfast in the car, which Jack always thinks in fun.

We arrived at 7:15am to my appointment. We were quickly taken back to the ultra-sound tech. Jack kept asking the lady, "Why are the lights off?" Then the lady pulled up the baby and Jack asked, "Is our baby black?" We all laughed, and then he went on to say that we should name our black baby Bellious:-) It was so fun for Jack to see and hear the baby's heartbeat. He was very concerned that the baby was going to come out, and we told him not for twenty more weeks.

We did not find out the sex of the baby, but we had the nurse write down the sex and seal it in an envelope. I think I am starting to cave on waiting. I actually felt sad when we left the doctor and did not know what we are having. Needless to say, I don't think I will be able to wait:-) Whether we look or not, we are not going to share the sex with anyone, so you will all have to wait until he/she arrives.

After our appointment we took the boys to story/music hour at Gap Kids, it was so fun. We went home for lunch and hung out with the boys that afternoon. It's always so much fun having Jordan home for three day weekends.

Our babysitter came over around six o'clock that evening. Jordan had made dinner reservations for us before we would head to see The Fray in concert at Chastain Park, an outdoor amphitheatre.

We arrived to the concert around 8:30, and the weather was looking great. After getting something to drink, we started walking towards our seat and it starts to rain! Thankfully we were under a breezeway near the line for buying rain ponchos. We stood in line for about twenty minutes, purchased our ponchos and headed to our seats. By this time the rain had blown over.

The Fray was onstage at nine o'clock. We listened to about four or five songs, I feel a few raindrops, and then five minutes later the skies open up with torrential downpour:-) We were soaked! Our ponchos kept our shirts dry:-) We took cover and watched the remainder of the concert.

It was a great time. The music was awesome, and getting wet just made it a memory. We will never forget our fifth wedding anniversary.
