The 12 Months of Luc

Totally predictable and not too creative but "they grow up so fast." I can't believe he's already 1. So here are the 12 months of Luc.


February:
We were totally convinced that he would be a thumb sucker... Of course we were wrong.
March:
He was such a good sleeper. If only he could sleep half as well now as he did then. Did I not appreciate it enough? I promise I'd appreciate it now.
April:
Remember when he would just sit there. I don't think he sits still for longer than 30 seconds unless he's strapped in.
May:
I don't remember him being chunky, but he looks really fat in this picture. You can call babies fat and nobody cares. You can also call people fat in Spanish and it's not supposed to be offensive. Although on my mission when the members told me I had gotten "gordita" I didn't take it as lovingly as they tried to make it sound. Oh I forgot, we're talking about Luc.
June:
Baby #1 falls down and we take her to the doctor, baby #2 falls down and we cuddle her and love her and tell her she'll be ok, baby #3 falls down we laugh and take pictures.
July: The binky didn't last very long either. He gave it up at about 9 months and now he just finds joy in taking other babies' binkies.
August:
These jammies were Seth's when he was a baby, isn't he cute, Luc not Seth. But I'm sure Seth was cute in them too.
August:
Nothing better than a baby eating Spaghetti. So cute. We let our kids eat table food really early. Another thing I should probably feel bad about but don't.
October: 7 months and he has already figured how annoying sisters can be.
November:
Climbing. He hasn't stopped since.
December: This should be a picture of him being cute on Christmas morning but instead it's an adorable little wife-beater shot.

January:
Look at that innocent face. I'm sure he didn't just make a huge mess all over my kitchen floor. Good thing he's cute or I'd ship him off to live with his evil aunt.


Happy Birthday my sweet little angel boy.

I love seeing kids progress through time w/ pics like that - but my favorite was your captions, which had me laughing out loud!!

Denise,

What a delicious boy. I'm holding you to offer to see us when you're up to visit, or else I'll hunt you down and make you drink Diet Pepsi while I play with the kids you moved far away from here so I would't be a bad influence. But who's voice was your No.1 angel exposed to almost every day of her gestation? huh? huh? think about it, maybe not such a bad influence? Heathens have a purpose too. Let me know if you need a place to crash, we're not centrally located, but my house is your house if you need it and the mountains of Barbies are just a little perk for the girls.

Did we have the same child? I mean I know we both named them Luc/Luke but... Loved the picture montage! Even more loved the journaling or whatever (I tried to sound all proper there). Anyway, we are going to have a serious explosion of personality this summer, are you prepared?
