Big Boy Now!
Well, I think now that Luke is one, it's time to quit calling him "my baby". He's turning into a toddler right before our eyes. I took a day to just follow him around the house. I let him basically go where ever he wanted. I followed him with my camera and it was pure entertainment. The dogs have become quite fond of Luke. They chase his toes when he crawls fast, they bring him their toys, he throws them or plays tug-of-war. He's also learned that the pug's basket is fun to climb in and out of. He's talking quite a bit now. Not that we understand what he's saying, but he sure does think it's important. He's finally calling me "Mama" again, instead of "Dad". He will bark like the dogs and points at everything and says "dat" (that). Luke finally got a hair cut the day after Christmas, but it still seems to be out of control. At least it’s a bit shorter. =)

Christmas Day
We had our typical marathon Christmas… morning at our house for our gifts to each other, then off to the Pierce’s for breakfast, then to Grandma Cintron’s for lunch, we had just enough time to take Luke home for a quick afternoon nap before heading back out to the Kaczka’s for the gift exchange there. We were so exhausted after we left the Kaczka’s that we had no energy to come up with something to eat for dinner, we found one fast food restaurant open on our way back home… Burger King. I can honestly say… it was fabulous! Overall, Christmas was fun. Technically it wasn’t Luke’s first Christmas but it felt like it. He was more interested in the paper, and then once the gift was opened he didn’t understand why we took him away from that toy and tried to get him interested in the next. =) My favorite gift for him was a pair of WeeSqueak shoes from his Auntie Kat… they squeak with every step so I always know where he is!
Christmas Eve
We had Christmas Eve back at our house this year. Luke dressed up as Santa Clause. (The silly things we parents do.) We had both sides of the family there, lots of food, wine, and snow! It was a beautiful night. Brad and I made our first prime rib, Luke tasted his first prime rib, and Elisa made out with the fabulous Starbucks gift card during the gift exchange! It was a good night!

How old are you?...1!
We had Luke’s first birthday party on Saturday, the 15th. Wow! That was crazy. I have never seen kids so crazy. Most of the kids there were older then Luke, but they were attacking his gifts… that’s for sure. It was crazy but fun. Luke’s cake was his first taste of cake. He was a bit unsure of it. Tasted it very carefully, and then really didn’t care to eat much of it. We will be celebrating his birthday again on his actual birthday on Tuesday with just our little family. He’ll probably be more comfortable that way. Here are a few pictures of his party, more will follow after Tuesday.
M-I-C-K-E-Y-M-O-U-S-E!
We took Luke to Disneyland for a week. We had a so much fun. Luke threw up all over the Finding Nemo line when we were almost to the front (after a 45 minute wait). But other than that… he was a trooper. He liked Dumbo and Mr. Toad’s Wild Ride, and didn’t do too shabby on the flights. Slept both ways! Anyway, we had a really great time, here are a few pictures.
