Mom of the Year!


Today started off like any other day. We had a bottle, ate, took a nap and you know locked you in the car! My heart has never dropped to my toes before like it did today. We were getting ready to leave Old Navy and you DID NOT want to be in your car seat. So I let you kinda climb around and collect your toys until you were ready. In the mean time you were playing near the other door so I locked the doors so you wouldn't go falling out and knock your head! Well I forgot this when I finally was ready and closing the door. My little baby boy was locked in! The car wasn't running and my phone was locked in with you. Good thing a nice mother and daughter were walking by and let me borrow their cell phone to call Daddy. Daddy didn't answer because he saw the odd name on the caller ID. Well Mommy yelled for him to pick up! Within ten minutes Daddy came to our rescue! He said he got in his car Dukes of Hazard style and flew down the freeway thinking his car may explode! He didn't even have socks on! But he made it and we were quickly rescued. You were a little red in the cheeks and had a sweaty head but other than that you were just fine. You had a few Cheerios and some water and we were on our way home.

Hello and Good Bye!

We haven't quite caught your new trick on camera just yet so this cute picture will have to do!
Today was such a fun day! Nana Eschinger came over and we played and went swimming for over two hours. You jumped off the wall, kicked your legs so fast and even learned how to wave good bye! Your wave is too cute. Your hand opens and closes facing you and you do it over and over. Everyday is seems you do something new!

Swimming

You are a waterbaby! Luke you LOVE to go in the pool. I can't wait to see you swim as you get older. I have great memories of swimming all summer long and I hope you will too! You are starting to get quite adventurous by dipping your face in the water. In the bath you used to hate having water poured over your head but now you are dunking your face in all by your self! You kick your feet so fast it feels like you may swim out of my arms. You love to play with your rings and cups on the steps and even said "it's hot" when you touched the pavement!

Finger foods take two!

You are really enjoying being able to feed yourself. I just wonder how much actually makes it in your mouth! We frequently find things in your hair and stuck to your legs as well as having fistfuls clenched in your little hands! You are really putting all those teeth to work.

Finger Foods

Besides eating cars you've become quite fond of eating with your fingers! Some of your favorites include puffs, cheerios, goldfish, ritz crackers, nutra grain bars, freeze dried apples, pears and peaches, and yogurt drops! I'm sure we will be adding more and more each day with all of those teeth coming in! You have three teeth in so far and three more white enough to see but not yet through!

Obsessed with tampons!

Suddenly you are obsessed with tampons! You crawl all over the house with them. You take them all out of the box and put most of them back in. Some day you will be so embarrassed when I send you to the store to buy tampons...so I'm blogging this now to show you later that you used to think they were great toys! :)
