I got to go out to eat and hang out with a friend and Luke got to go with his MiMi and Pa to a car show to see his favorite celebrity..... Mater. Luke watches Cars A LOT and obsesses over Lightnin' McQueen and Mater. I let him wear his Cars shirt to the show- he was the ultimate fan. And when he got to see him in person my mom said he flipped. He couldn't believe it. They said it was hard to get a picture of Luke with Mater because Luke was so excited he couldn't sit still. Love it. <br />

Last week it seemed like we did all things western. Early in the week Luke and I got up and headed to the stock show to look at the animals. It was great because no one was there and we could just walk around with out the crowds. We even came upon a showing of some cows and watched that for a while. Luke was loving seeing the animals, but he really loved watching them go potty. Boys...</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
By the way Luke is 2 and he already knows how to win me over. He wore tennis shoes to the fair because his feet are too big for his boots from last year. And everyone that he saw with boot on he would say 'he's a cowboy' and then say "I'm not a cowboy I don't have boots" it made me so sad so we had to go the the exhibits and buy him a pair of boot so that he could be a cowboy. When he put the boots on he kept saying over and over with so much excitement "Mom, I'm a cowboy!" So cute, but he sure knows how to get what he wants. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Anyways we walked around 'rode' the tractors, ate a corn dog, pet a bunch of animals. It was a wonderful and a fun morning, and we even made it home in time for a nap!</div>

Later on in the week he had western day at school, and of course he needed a Texas sandwich for lunch that day. They had animals and pony rides- Luke was in heaven. We took pictures of him before we left for school and we let him put on his toy water guns but we replaced them with a toy dinosaur and deer to go into school. Such a stud cowboy. <br />

Andrew and Luke finished off the week going to the rodeo with some family.Anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07939897541372475059noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-410449402034879348.post-38034363176032549532013-01-17T11:23:00.001-06:002013-01-17T11:24:08.071-06:00New Routines & Life with LukeWe are getting into a little routine around here. We're working out, riding our new bikes, and getting a little healthier. For Christmas I bought a juicer. I have been reading a lot lately about all the health benefits associated with juicing, so we took the plunge and started to juice. We decided that if we want Luke to grow up learning to love healthy food and have a healthy lifestyle, then we should set the example. So this is one of our new years resolutions. I know we aren't going to be perfect, and I don't expect us to. I know we will sit down with a box of girl scout cookies and eat them, or we will go pig out on chips and queso, but we just want, as a whole make healthier choices and to stress the importance of exercise and eating right. I heard something the other day that 'if you don't spend time and effort on being healthy, then you will later end up spending time and effort on being sick and injured', and that is so true. So being proactive is our goal. <br />
<br />
Anyways, there are all different levels of juicing. You can drink the juice randomly, you can do it in place of meals, or you can do an all out juice fast. Right now I am just juicing to replace breakfast and then sometimes as an afternoon snack to help ease any desire to want to afternoon snack. I have been pleasantly surprised with how full I feel and then energy it gives me. I guess my body WAS deprived of nutrients.<br />

When you juice, you can pretty much throw anything that can be juiced into the juicer and the juicer does all the work. I have been doing spinach, carrot, apple, or kale, carrot, apple. They both have been very tasty. Andrew likes to add tomato and not add a green leaf.<br />

Also with getting organized, I ordered some Maybooks. They have the cutest designs. One is my planner, and one is a food journal. I love that they aren't very big, so they fit into a bag easily. <br />

Last week Luke started swimming lessons. We are hoping he will be ready by the summer. He is very brave with the water (will jump in with out you seeing) and he thinks he can swim. So actually getting him to learn to swim is very important (for his safety, and my sanity). <br />

He loves swimming so much that he insists on wearing his goggles, even when we are out of the pool. He especially wants to wear them in the car. The other day we drove through the car wash and he started freaking out because he didn't have his goggles on to protect him from the 'car shower'. Oh man love his little spirit. So cute.<br />

I'll leave you with one more funny thing. Luke is starting to use things we say, in his regular conversation. Andrew and I say 'babe' to each other so Luke now uses the word 'babe' in his regular language. 'Babe I need some milk', 'Can I go ride my bike babe?'. 'Read the dinosaur book please babe'. Please someone invent a way to keep him this cute forever.

I wanted to flash back to December and show you what we have been up to lately.<br />
<br />
December was crazy. We were out of town almost every weekend having so much fun, but we are glad to be home for a while and into our routine.<br />
<br />
For Christmas this year, Santa came to our house a few days early because we were going to be out in Aledo with Andrew's family for Christmas day. This actually the first year that being Santa has been fun, because Luke finally was understanding the concept. We decorated cookies for Santa, put reindeer food out, read books, etc. Luke kept looking out the window watching and waiting for Santa. It was so cute. After Luke went to sleep, Santa and Mrs. Claus spent a few hours assembling toys, but it was so fun- I live for these sweet moments. When he woke up he was so excited. We got him a tricycle and Andrew's parents sent him a train table that we set up here. He kept running back and forth between the tricycle and train table and was so excited he couldn't decide what to play with. Seeeing his joy and excitement just made my day! Santa also brought the family bikes to ride, so after we opened our gifts- we wanted to take a ride, and where else does one go for breakfast with a 2 year old? McDonalds. We rode our bikes to McDonalds and Luke loved it. Now almost everyday he asks if we can ride our bikes to McDonalds. So cute. I love to try and guess what gifts are so in a gift from Andrew to me he put popcorn so that it would throw me off. Now I know how sneaky he is, so guessing gifts is going to be a lot harder. :)<br />

<br />
That night we then went and rode the Polar Express, and had Christmas with Andrew's cousins. After that we headed out to Aledo for a few days. The kids made pancakes with Bobba and played and played. Andrew's brother David Todd came up with an idea to make a cardboard town for the kids for Christmas. So for a few nights after the kids went to bed all the adults work on a cardboard city in the garage. On Christmas morning it was set up in the living room for the kids to play in. It was so fun, and the kids had a blast playing in it. The kids (and adults) were spoiled and fun toys. <br />

On Christmas day it actually snowed, and we had a white Christmas!!! Some of the guys braved it outside in the hot tub while it was snowing! I stayed inside and napped with my precious newborn neice Cora. After the kids went to sleep, us grownups finished the holiday off with karaoke. So funny. We loved our time with family! <br />

We headed home the day after Christmas and met my family at my house. My sister had surgery over here, so we had our Christmas at my house, and we hung out and relaxed for a few days. Luke was spoiled again with toys galore. He has the best 2 sets of grandparents ever! <br />

Luke was a dragon this year, and you can see in one of the pictures of him 'roaring', according to him he was a 'dinosaur dragon'. He loved his costume! This year for Halloween we had planned on letting Luke trick or treat to the few houses on our cul-de-sac, take some pictures and then be done. We thought that with him being 2 he wouldn't get the concept of knocking on doors and all that stuff, so 3 houses would be enough. When we got started and he got the concept, he was a trick or treating pro. He would walk up, knock, say 'trick or treat', get his candy, say thank you, and then he was on to the next house. We then knew 3 houses wouldn't be enough for this pro so we headed over to Andrew's brother's house to trick or treat at their house, and we ended up walking their street too. Luke had a blast, and now every time we walk outside he asks to go trick or treat. </div>

I feel like it was just yesterday that I was bringing home a precious little baby home from the hospital, and here we are 2 years later with a toddler who is so loving, active, indpendent, and fun. He adds so much joy to my day and I am so thankful for him each and every day.<br />

<br />Right now Luke is very into being independent. He wants to do everything himself or to 'help mommy'. He has to put the soap in the washer, he has to bring in the trash can, he has to buckle his own car seat, etc, etc, etc. It is a battle, but a good battle each day. He loves any type of transportation, animals, Diego and Nemo. We are working on counting, one to one correspondence, letter recognition (mostly the letters in his first name), and his colors. Right now he counts like this '1,2,3,4,5,6,7, 14' and his favorite colors are blue and orange. He is a little sponge absorbing everything and learning new skills and words each day. <br />
<br />
Anyways, we celebrated Luke's 2nd birthday this year with a construction theme. I tried to keep everything pretty small and simple. We had planned to have the party outside in our backyard and Andrew and my dad built Luke a sandbox, and we were just going to let the kids jump and play. But on the weekend of his party it was very cold so at the last minute we had to move the party inside. We pushed back the furniture in the office and playroom and popped up a mini bounce house that Andrew's parents had and we just let the kids jump and play with the toys. They had a blast and it was very enjoyable morning.<br />
<br />
Here are a few pictures of the party!<br />

He is doing so much better than I every thought (lesson I learned is never underestimate your child!).<br />
<br />
Luke started school Tuesday, and he goes Tuesday and Thursday, I work at his school, but I'm down the hall so he doesn't see me. It is so comforting to me to be right there in case he needs me, but as I learned this week he is a 'bee boy' (big boy) and doesn't care if I am there or not. Let me just say that this is an answer to prayer that he loves it. I thought he would be crying or super attached but so far so good, I know its only the first week, and when reality kicks in that he has to keep going he might get upset. So far the only time he has gotten upset is when he has to leave. He throws himself to the floor and cries (that's another issue we are trying to break), because he doesn't was to leave his friends. He has the sweetest teachers and friends and I am so glad he is loving it! Yay Luke!<br />

The other day Luke came up to me randomly and said in the sweetest voice "I love you, mama". My heart just melted. He is turning into the sweetest little boy, and I am so proud of him. <br />

The Olympics are on! We watched every second of the Opening ceremonies, and have been watching lots of different events. My favorite is the swimming. We will be glued to the TV for the next few weeks if you are looking for us.<br />
<br />
<br />In Olympic spirit I have seen several cute and fun Olympic things to try. Here is what I might try and attempt over the next few weeks. <br />
<br />
Luke and I are going to try this: Looks fun (and messy)!<br />

My parents are driving and visiting all over the western half of the US so we brought my brother and decided to meet up with them in Deer Valley for a few days. It is in Utah and is absolute beautiful. I have never been up there in the summer before, and I can't wait to go back! We enjoyed our vacation so much and it was a great break from this crazy Texas heat. The highs were in the 70s, so wonderful! Get ready for a photo dump... lots of pictures coming your way. <br />

Luke loved riding in the backpack. We also saw some horses and Luke wanted to chase the horses so bad! </div>

One evening we went to a resort down the road that was having a family friendly concert. There was a playground and sandbox in the concert area, so Luke was loving playing and dancing. He even found some friends to hula hoop with! </div>

The last day my parents had to leave early, so the rest of us went to a fun pond and fished and played. No fish were caught, but we had fun trying! Luke wanted to hit the water constantly with the pole, so I am pretty sure he scared off the fish. </div>

With 4 cousins under the age of 4 it limits where we can go, so staying here was simply the best option. We had a blast! Luckily the weather was great and it didn't get up into the 100s until the last day. I don't have many pictures, so you will have to trust me that it was wonderful.<br />

Luke has been going to swimming lessons the past 2 weeks. He was not loving it the first two days, but now that I hide from him (behind a trashcan) and he can't see me he loves it! He runs to his teacher with so much excitement and is getting very comfortable with the water. He was even jumping off our diving board at home all by his self. I love seeing the improvement he is making! </div>

I love to craft, but it is just hard to get started because I never know what to do. Anyways I saw <a href="http://homemadebyjill.blogspot.com/2009/12/cozy-car-caddy-tutorial.html">this</a> on pintrest and decided that this would be a good place to start.<br />
<br />
Andrew is out of town for the weekend and I am home watching Luke, so since I am here alone with no adult contact I decided to get busy with something to make the time go by faster. (Don't get me wrong, I love to watch Luke and wouldn't have it any other way, but it can just drive you a little crazy only having an 19 month old to talk to, so having something to do helps) So I went to Hobby Lobby and got supplies and then spent today working on it. <br />
<br />
This is one of my first sewing projects, so it is still a little ghetto....but it is finished and better than I thought it would turn out. Luke is going to put it to the test tomorrow morning at church. I am always looking for neat (quiet) things for Luke to do at church. He isn't too into sitting still and listening, so a quiet activity is a must.<br />

This was a fun little adventure, hopefully Luke will love and it spend time playing with it. It isn't perfect, and sorta looks like a 1st grader made it, but it's made with love. That's what counts, right?!?<br />

<div style="text-align: center;">
It's that time. I have been dreading it, but at Luke's well check on Monday our pediatrician told us it was time to start weaning Luke off the paci. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Today was our first day, we are starting with just limiting it to the crib, which means he only gets it when he sleeps (not the car, not when we are out and he is fussing,- just when he sleeps). He did really well, no melt downs and when he asked for it, I just told him that he was a big boy now and didn't need it. He seemed to understand it because he would just look at me and walk off and go find a toy. We even went and ate dinner at a restaurant tonight and he didn't need it at all.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I think it is harder for me than for Luke. It has been with us since the beginning- we got one at the hospital and ever since we were addicted. So for now we are on the path to no paci and being a big boy. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I am planning on letting him have it when he sleeps for a while- bc eliminating it while he is awake is a HUGE deal. Maybe in a month or so we will eliminate it at night, but I think that is going to be even a bigger battle because he uses it to put himself to sleep. </div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
Goodbye Paci It has been fun (and you were a huge help)!</div>

On Monday Andrew came home early (5:00- which never happens unless he has something he has to be home for) and was itching to do something fun. So around 5:30 we decided it would be fun to go to the Ranger game that night (which starts at 7) so Andrew quickly looked around Craigslist and called a guy and since the game was in an hour and a half he made a bargain deal on some GREAT seats. We rushed around the house and got out the door and headed to the Stadium. We stopped off at a shady Valero and Andrew went in and got our tickets and parking pass from a random guy. I am so thankful that he wasn't robbed or shot, you never know what your going to get with a Craigslist deal. We headed into to the stadium and enjoyed the game. Our seats were a few rows up behind the visitors dugout. So anytime a right handed batter was batting you could see us on T.V. We didn't know this when we bought our tickets- but when we were at the game people were texting/tweeting us that they could see us! How funny! Luke did really well for about 4 innings and then he was restless so we went over to the kid area for a few innings and then return for the last 2 innings in our seats. It was Luke's first game and I would say he did really well. He usually goes to bed at 8, but he stayed up till 10:30 that night and was very happy! It was a great family night and Luke can wait to go back and watch 'beeball' and 'wangers'! </div>

Even though I stay at home with Luke, I still don't find the time to do cute things like this quiet book. Somehow whenever Luke goes down for a nap I am either cleaning, sitting down for a minute or occasionally napping. I never have the energy to jump up and start a project- but I am making a promise to myself to do more fun things like this so we'll see what happens. I saw this quote an laughed because that is my exact thought. Maybe someday I'll be super mom. </div>

How cool is this splash pad??!?! I want one in my yard...Luke (and I) would have so much fun! Surly it isn't to hard to build...Andrew?! I have been doing lots of 'research' (if you can call it that) into sensory tubs. I think Luke is at the perfect age to explore them and they look super easy to make- you just change them out with different items for different themes and then you let your little one go to town exploring. I love this beach theme! How fun!<br />

This summer we will be a the lake for Memorial Day and 4th of July! How cute are these? I am already thinking of cute ideas for snacks! I am not a strawberry person, but Andrew and Luke would devour these... </div>

In my imaginary dream home I thing these half doors instead of baby gates are so cute. If it was a pocket half door in front of the stairs it would be even better. Luke is getting into everything now, so gates are a must, but they aren't very cute. I love the doors!</div>

Luke has been working on getting comfortable with the water. We have
been getting in our pool (and trying to get in the lake) a lot. Luke for
some reason loves the pool but is terrified of the lake. Anyways, since
we are around so much water Andrew and I are adamant that Luke gets to
be comfortable floating and being in the water, so that if something
happened he wouldn't be freaking out. We put Luke in the pool when we
went to Corpus and he did extremely well, we then came home and have
been working on it ever since. Here is a little video of our fish
'swimming'. It is so fun watching him grow and change daily. <br />

Last weekend my cousin got married down in Corpus Christi, and so since it is such a long drive Andrew and I decided to make a long weekend of it and do some other fun things while we were down there. It was a great time to get away and just spend time together as our little family. </div>
<br />
One morning we spend time at a park and pier: <br />

That afternoon we went and visitied my memaw who is in a nursing home. My parents and sister met us there. My memaw was having a good day and was laughing and smiling. Her dementia is very bad so she doesn't talk but you can see her smiling so we know she understand and enjoys the company. Luke enjoyed playing with his Pa's cowboy hat.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
That evening we went out to the wedding which was at a really neat ranch. Luke was really good and loved quietly playing in the dirt and leaves during the wedding. (If only church was outdoors and had dirt, then maybe we would actually make it through a service sometime :) )</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
The ranch had lots of room to run around and had horses to pet. Luke was loving it! </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
Once the sun went down Luke spent his evening on the dance floor, and begging girls to dance with him. He is so funny..i don't know where he gets it. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
The next day we went to the Texas State Aquarium, and saw a dolphin show and all the fish. Luke wasn't as interested in the fish as he was with the bone dig and splash pad that was there. He wants things to be hands on. If he can't touch it, he doesn't want to have anything to do with it. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
They had the neatest splash pad with all different kinds of water features. Luke couldn't contain his excitement. He was running from water feature to water feature as fast as he could laughing and playing. I need to find something like this around us this summer. </div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
We finished the day looking at a few other animals and the ships coming in, and then we headed back to swim at our hotel pool. It was too cold for me to get in, but Andrew and Luke braved it and Luke actually 'swam' (floated and kicked) by his self for the first time! We were so excited. We actually came home the next day and put him in the pool at our house to make sure he still could do it. (more on that later) </div>

Anyways, we had a blast and it was great little get away. The wedding was fun and I wish all the happiness in the world to my cousin and her new husband.Anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07939897541372475059noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-410449402034879348.post-23513804449391844092012-04-23T15:50:00.000-05:002012-04-23T15:50:57.710-05:00All By Myself & A Dance PartyLast week Andrew had to travel for work. I have been very fortunate that he hasn't had to travel much except a few times a year and every time he has traveled I have just gone home to Abilene for the week. This week I already had commitments with Wee School and other things around here, so I decided to be a big girl and stay here. In fact, Andrew just accepted a new position within his company making it very likely/probable that he will start traveling M-Th very often. I already know he will be gone for 3 weeks in Sept. and Oct. So I decided I would try to brave it by myself since this could quickly become the norm and I can't run home every time Andrew leaves.<br />
<br />
Let me just say I have so much more respect for single parents after this past week. Having to do everything for Luke and around the house is a lot- and I just have one kid. Luckily Luke was so sweet, and would come and cuddle with me and give hugs and kisses (its like he knew I was a little nervous and sad). He really was the best and I couldn't ask for a better son. But taking care of anyone all by yourself is a lot. I also do not sleep well at all without Andrew. I get too scared and I slept with the TV on every night- leaving me exhausted by the end of the week. Not having any 'grown ups' to talk to can drive you a little crazy. Luke and I have never been so excited to go to Wee School and actually have some social interaction. Anyways, enough rambling- we survived and it wasn't that bad. This weekend we celebrated 'dada' being home by getting snow cones (we might come up with a reason to get a snow cone most days of the week). Here is a little peak into how big and crazy Luke is getting! He is a dancing fool!<br />
