Little Man

My handsome boy

Big boy bath

I am once again, getting behind in keeping everyone updated. (Sorry Scott at Neiman Marcus who should be working right now) The days go by so fast, and Luke is changing everyday. This week Luke got his first tooth, the day after I took him to the doctor to find out why he wouldn't sleep!! Then he started to say "da da da da", not exactly his first word, but it's still pretty cool and he says it a lot more when Ford is around. When my mom and Casey were here, we gave him his first bath in the big bath tub. He loved getting to sit there and play with toys and didn't even mind when I accidentally poured water on his face.

Everyday I thank God for giving me this little guy. I am so blessed!!

Grandma George and Luke

We were so sad to find out that my dad, who lives in Australia won't be coming to see us next week after all, so I decided to post some videos and pictures for him. This video is from a month ago when we visited Bartlesville and Luke spent some time with my Grandma. I will do more videos tomorrow that are more recent.

Family Time

We took a great weekend trip with the Duncan/Ryan side of the family. We went to a cabin in the Arbuckle mountains and it was so much fun. The place was beautiful and very relaxing!!




There was even a hot tub, which you know Ford loved!!

The week before, Luke's Nana came to visit. They got to spend a lot of time together!!

Halloween

My adorable lion...




The two Tony Romos...

The naked monkey... (he hated his monkey costume) hehe!

Luke and his friends trick or treating...

The whole gang!!

The Pumpkin Patch

We went to the pumkin patch in Flower Mound. It was so fun. The place is great, They have hay rides, train rides, hay mazes, kettle corn, tons of pumpkins, face painting, and of course food and they don't charge for anything except pumpkins and food! Luke had a blast and we took tons of pictures. What is it about babies and pumpkins that is so darn cute?!

I love fall!! I love the cool weather, pumpkin carving, leaves changing, and everything about it...except my allergies always go crazy!

I have been told that all I talk about on here is Luke...well that is true. But does that surprise anyone? :)

Noah and Megan

I am currently watching two kids who live next door and down the street. Noah, who I have watched his whole live, and Megan who is in 3rd grade. We have so much fun, and it doesn't even feel like I should be paid to watch them.
I got Noah a pumpkin at the farmer's market and he carried it around all day.

Megan is a cheerleader and wore her homecoming ribbon to school today. She is so sweet.

OU/ Texas!!

We had so much fun going to the OU/Texas football game. First of all, our tickets were completely free!! The best way to go to any sporting event if you ask me! Then, the people who gave us the tickets, also hooked us up with a limo to take us and pick us up. It was so awesome to not have to deal with parking or traffic!! The game was sooo crowded and pretty hot when the sun was shining on us, but very exciting. The outcome was not what we were hoping for, but it was still great to get away.

Luke stayed with his aunt Casey and Uncle Dustin, which made the whole thing possible because I wouldn't have trusted anyone else with him!! They are awesome! He didn't even cry once the whole day with them. Although I was sad when I left him, it was great to have a day away and not worry about him being taken care of! Thanks guys!!

Trip to Oklahoma

We took a trip to see our family again. We had a brief but fun stop for Luke to see his Grandmommy and Grandaddy. He also got to see his Aunt Allison and cousins. He and Brooks are going to have so much fun when they are old enough to play together. And of course Ruthie will be in charge of both of them!


We went from there to Bartlesville. There is a slideshow of pictures from that trip to the side. The drive wasn't too bad since it was broken up with stops in OKC, but by the end Luke wanted out of his car seat and was not afraid to tell us how mad he was! It was well worth it though! Luke's Nana had his picture taken at Sears. You can see the pictures at https://www.searsphotos.com/?shareid=S206479588l5VF7C2CZW5. Notice his totally awesome OU jersey!!
We love seeing family, and after having him have realized how much we miss all of them and wish that we lived closer to all of them! Especially so they could babysit :)

I don't think the slideshow will work, so here are some pictures:

It's been way too long!

I know I know!! It has been sooo long. We have been super busy lately and I just haven't been able to sit down and work on this or anything else it feels like!

Luke has obviously been exhausted by all of this as well...









I have a lot to catch up on. We have had sooo much fun this last month. Luke is growing so much and is so much fun right now. He is so happy and plays and laughs all of the time.

My only complaint...no sleep! He doesn't seem to need to take naps or sleep more than 5-6 hours at a time at night! There are days where he only sleeps 30 minutes all day long. Another reason why I haven't been able to update lately. I hope it is just his teeth, and he will begin sleeping better soon.



He is still adorable and doesn't seem phased by the little sleep. Here he is in his rocker jacket from grandma george.
