LUKE MARCHES TO THE BEAT OF HIS OWN DRUM

THIS IS TYPICAL LUKIE. HE IS HIS OWN LITTLE MAN. SO DIFFERENT FROM MILES. HE LOVES PRETEND PLAY AND HAS A MILLION DIFFERENT FACES. THIS IS HIS "NINJA" FACE. HE THINKS WHEN HE PUTS STICKERS ON HIS BODY AND FACE THAT HE INSTANTLY TRANSFORMS INTO A NINJA. HE IS SHY BUT BOLD, HAS MANY MANY THINGS TO SAY, AND LOVES HIS BROTHER. HE IS A TOUGH GUY...BUT LOOK OUT...HIS WEAKNESS IS A BOO BOO WHICH HE GETS QUITE OFTEN. I LOVE HIM SO. HE IS QUITE THE CHARACTER.

HOUSTON'S SWIM PARTY

MILES AND DADDY WENT TO HOUSTON'S BIRTHDAY PARTY AT THE CIVIC CENTER WHILE LUKE AND I WERE AT ANOTHER PARTY. MILES HAD SO MUCH FUN SWIMMING. HE COULD ALMOST STAND UP IN THE 4 FT. WATER. THE SWIMMING WAS FOLLOWED BY CAKE AND PIZZA. THE BOYS HAD SUCH A NICE TIME. CANT WAIT FOR SWIMMING LESSONS AGAIN THIS SUMMER.

TUCKER'S BIRTHDAY PARTY AT THE METHODIST CHURCH

LUKE WENT TO TUCKER ANN'S BIRTHDAY PARTY AT THE METHODIST CHURCH. SHE HAD A BOUNCY PARTY. THERE WERE LOTS OF KIDS THERE BUT LUKE PREFERRED TO HANG WITH ME...AS USUAL. HE WOULDNT SOCIALIZE MUCH....ESPECIALLY SINCE HIS BROTHER WASNT THERE. HE DID PLAY WITH MADDIE BRIEFLY. WE HAD A NICE TIME AND HOPEFULLY LUKE WILL CONTINUE TO COME OUT OF HIS SHELL.

LUKE AND I REVISIT THE NICU AT BAPTIST HOSPITAL

LUKE AND I RECENTLY VISITED THE NEW EXPANSION OF THE NICU AT BAPTIST. HE WAS THERE FOR THE FIRST 7 WEEKS OF HIS LIFE. I EXPLAINED IT TO HIM THE BEST I COULD AND WE EVEN SAW SOME NURSES THAT WE HAD WHEN LUKE WAS THERE. THIS IS A PICTURE OF HIM STANDING IN FRONT OF THE NEW SIGN. THIS SIGN IS ACTUALLY WHERE THE WINDOW WAS WHERE LUKE'S BED WAS. IT BROUGHT BACK SOOOO MANY MEMORIES AND I AM SO THANKFUL TO HAVE SUCH A HEALTHY LITTLE BOY.

TBALL BACK IN FULL FORCE

COACH DADDY AND MILES ARE BACK ON THE FIELD. THIS SEASON WE ARE THE BLUE SHARKS. IT IS A FULL LOAD FOR KYLE TO HANDLE WITH 14 KIDS THIS YEAR. OPENING CEREMONIES WERE GREAT. THERE WAS A PRESENTATION ON THE FIELD OF ALL TEAMS IN THE LEAGUE ALONG WITH GIFT BAGS FOR THE KIDS. KYLE HAS LOTS OF HELP THIS YEAR WITH AN ASSISTANT COACH AND 2 HELPERS. WE ARE SO EXCITED TO SEE MILES PROGRESS IN HIS LAST TBALL YEAR. NEXT YEAR, TO THE BIG BOYS.....COACH PITCH.
