First Trip to the Zoo

Riding a turtle statue.

Trying to ride a goat statue.

We did see some real animals. Luke kept telling these turtles to wake up.


I just think duck bottoms are funny.

End of the day.

Hoppy Easter!

Dallas Blooms

We visited the Dallas Arboretum for opening weekend of Dallas Blooms. Luke was into the model cars more than the flowers. At least there were a few pretty flowers in this shot.

Our little boy is two!

We went for our two year old check up today and confirmed what my arm has been feeling all along - we have a big boy. He weighed in at 32 lbs (90%) and 37.5 inches (>97%, so off the chart). If you follow the rule of estimating his adult height by doubling his height at 2 then he would be 6'3". Scott is 6'6" so I would imagine that might even be on the short side. Luke is holding the two things he sleeps with every night. DD the blanket (I don't know why he calls it DD but that's what he started calling it) and Gu Gu the dog (short for Gus which is the name of our Aussie).

First Date?

Halloween - the real costume

Michael "Luke" Phelps

Luke wouldn't keep his horse costume on so I took our friend Jon's idea and he went as Michael Phelps to his first Halloween party of the season. I wore a shirt that said Phelps Phan on the front. He's going to hate me for this when he's grown but only those legs could pull this off!

It's October!

18 Months!!!!!!!

Luke is now one and a half years old! He's finally starting to slim down and hadn't gained any weight since his last checkup but grew 1.5 inches to 34 1/2 inches. Still 95% in height but only 80% in weight at 28.2lbs.

First Kiss

Our friends Wes, Jamey and little Aubrey came down from Tulsa to visit. Luke thought Aubrey was pretty cute!

Our Big Boy

Pool Time!

If you can't tell by his smile, Luke really enjoyed his first dip in the pool this spring. He also had his 15 month check up today and now weighs 28.2 lbs (90%) and is 33 inches (95%).

Who weighs more - Luke or Rocky?

Rocky had his annual check up and he now weighs 26.2lbs. Pretty sure that put him in the >97% category for cats. My niece Karlee and Rocky.

I'm Walking!

Yes, that's a mohawk courtesy of the new nanny. Her boyfriend is in a "metal" band.

Bath Time

Bath fun followed by a warm towel and a good thumb!

Luke weighed 25 1/2 lbs at his one year check up (85%) and was 32 1/4 inches long (>97%).

BIRTHDAY CAKE!!!!
