big helper...


Luke is such a big helper--he loves to throw clothes in the washing machine and the dryer, as well as putting them in the laundry basket for us! He also hands me all the dishes out of the dishwasher, clean or not--I suppose that is the next step to teach him. Luke will get the broom and mop, pull out the vacuum and the duster, and helps put a new trash bag in the trash can as well: I hope all that is not a commentaty on my housekeeping skills....hmmm...

walking a mile in....

This is a short video of Luke in Sam's shoes--it is very cute!! I hope everyone can view it without too much trouble. He is such a big boy now--sigh.

traveling

We all traveled up to Nashville to visit Sam's family, some of whom had not seen Luke in several months. He was his usual angel self, smiling and getting along in new places. And as usual, once he warmed up to new places and people, he was the star of the show! Saturday, we watched football with Granddad, Grammy and Auntie Leigh (but Vanderbilt still lost :( Oh well.) Afterword we went over and had dinner with Mur and King Saturday night. Then we went out to brunch with Auntie Leigh and Grammy on Sunday morning before coming home. Still no sleeping in the car, but Luke is pretty good natured about it--better than I would be without sleep!! Check the website for tons of pictures!

halloween tears...

Usually a joyous time for children, Halloween was not so fun at our house this year. Apparently dressing up like a dinosaur (from his favorite book, "How Do Dinosaurs Say Good Night?", was not part of Luke's plan this year. He freaked out just trying on the costume. I got a few funny, "embarass you in front of your girlfriend" pictures, but that is all. He loved giving out candy to other people dressed up and other people's costumes did not scare him at all. Oh well. Maybe next year.
