Dancing Queen... I mean King

So we have a dancer on our hands. And he is not a one trick pony, oh no he loves it all! Considering Josh likes Hip Hop and R&B, And I tend to listen to Classic Rock and whatever 93.3 is playing, God knows what his G-Pa has him listening too over in that garage, and of course G-ma’s favorite Kid Rock. Needles to say Luke has been exposed to a lot of different types of music and now has different dances for each. He has a hip hop dance which involves a lot of hand swaying back and forth, he likes to what we call “stomp the yard” to any type of music where he will stomp just one foot on the ground as he dances. And then he has the swaying hippie dance we call it, who he had to have pick up from his Uncle Luke. Now like I have said in previous posts Luke is really aware of when he is being videoed so I was able to capture this video while at my friend Katie’s house in the dark while he wasn’t paying attention so I apologize for the grainy footage.

I’m in trouble!

So for Luke’s 1st birthday I thought it would be a great idea to buy him a lil skate board so him and his dad could “ride” together. And by “ride” I mean josh hold him while he scooted him around on it. Well Luke had other ideas. This kid already stands on it all by him self and does this jumping motion while on it. Now I thought it was the cutest thing at first while we watched him figure it out downstairs on the carpet a month ago. I remember thinking to myself he’s just so smart and picks up on the most random things. Like I’ve said I ask him where his damn nose is everyday and he still will not cooperate but watches Josh play Skate on the X-Box once and is all of a sudden a skate pro. So while we sit downstairs just watching him Josh says to me “watch this” he proceeds to pick Luke up on his skateboard and take him to our bottom stair. He puts Luke on the board and acts like Luke does some crazy jump off the stairs as he holds the board to Luke’s feet. Now we all laugh and clap but after Luke is done clapping he picks up his board and goes right for the stairs. Yep, puts his board up on the stair and stars climbing up the stairs and gets on the board, of course Josh thinks this is Hilarious and that he is the next Rob Dyrdek I on the other hand start having flashes from the future involving hospitals and neon casts. Now we have created a monster! I don’t mind him playing on it downstairs on the nice fluffy carpet but he will pick it right up and maneuver his way up the stairs with board in hand to the wood floor where he knows the board actually rolls! I’ve been trying to get video of this phenomenon but Luke has a sense of when the camera is on and stops whatever he is doing and wants to watch what you’re watching on the screen which obviously doesn’t work for me trying to capture these moments so it’s a work in progress
