THREE!

Minutes old

My sweet little baby is three!!  I can't believe it's been three years since Luke was born.  I can remember his birth day like it was yesterday.  I hate how fast time flies and how quickly kids grow up...but we're having the best time.  

First Birthday party

Luke is such a blessing.  He's grown into a talkative, sword-fighting, super-hero-loving, running, jumping, wrestling, 'nack eating, little-brother-loving, movie-watching, competitive, funny, sweet little boy. It's impossible to put into words how much we love this little boy.  We would do anything for him.

Second Birthday party

Luke chose to have a Batman themed party....the "scary" Batman - meaning the one w/ the black suit, not the blue suit. :)  Our parents and most of Luke's aunts and uncles made the party (we missed you Nate & Jen, as you were laying on a beach in Hawaii!).  

Third Birthday party (if anyone got a better picture, send it to me!)

Before everyone arrived, Luke had to sample the frosting on the cake...I think he had to try each color before he approved. :)

After everyone arrived, the first thing Luke wanted to do was open presents!!  He'd been waiting patiently all day.  His favorite present was the Batman cave...once he opened that he wasn't very interested in opening the other presents.  But he did and he LOVES all his gifts.  

After playing with his new toys it was time for pizza and then Batman cake.  Mmmm!  Luke lost his shirt somewhere in there... :)

On Luke's real birthday, we put up our Christmas tree and had a lazy day...

and more cake!

We love you Lukey!!
