12 months (Luke)

• Luke is a year old! We can’t believe it!
• Stats:
• Length: 31 inches
• Weight: 24.3 lbs
• Head Circumference: 19 inches
• He is very good at making the touchdown sign…just in time for football!
• When we are seated on the floor, Luke will walk backwards a few steps to sit on our laps…it’s so sweet.
• He brings us things all the time.  His favorite thing to do is get into the pantry and bring us cans of soup, syrup, and other things he probably shouldn’t have access to.
• He also screams “ma!” when he wants more food.
• Speaking of food, he’s a big fan. I can’t think of anything off hand that he won’t eat. His favorites are fruit, green beans, pizza, cheerios, goldfish.
• His all time favorite thing to eat is a cookie from Publix. The second we start heading that way he’ll start bouncing up and down and panting really fast.  If they ever run out of cookies I don’t know what we’ll do.
• Luke’s favorite things to play with are balls…footballs, baseballs, soccer balls, doesn’t matter. He even says “ba” when he sees one!  He even calls grapes and tomatoes balls!
• He and his sissy usually play well together, but he’s starting to really get mad when she takes something away from him. He’ll slam his hands down and start screaming…she better watch out because one day he’ll retaliate and it won’t be pretty.
• Luke loves to play in water. When we go to the Y he loves running in the kiddie pool and would probably dive into the big pool if we’d let him.
• He puts our iPhones and other play phones up to his ear and occasionally will say something that sounds like “hi.” He also will do the same with other toys though (trains, balls, etc).
