No more open mouth kisses????

So yesterday after picking lil man up from daycare I was asking him for some smooches and instead of coming at me with his mouth wide open he puckered up his perfect lil lips for me! Now don’t get me wrong I’m going to miss his frenching but I will not miss having to wipe away the after math of such kisses haha. But I may be getting a little ahead of myself because this morning when I asked for smooches before I left for work he planted a nice wet open mouth kiss on me and Josh was like “see he didn’t pucker up for you” Now I was expecting this type of comment from my wonderful loving boyfriend but lil did he know I got proof of this exchange Luke and I had the day before, sucka hahaha

Mini Chatty Cathy

So Luke is growing up so fast I can’t even stand it. He is starting to say a lot more things besides his favorite Ball. I think me saying “everything can’t be ball Luke” after he would point at everything and say “ball” is starting to work! His new favorite word is Dudie yah that’s right dudie. But he doest say it in regards to potty training, our dog’s name is The Dude but over the years it has turned into Dudie and now that’s what Luke calls him. He will follow him around the house just saying it over and over. Bless Dude’s lil pug soul because he takes a beating from him. Luke thinks they are Wrestle Mania partners or something, maybe because he’s the only thing smaller then him that moves haha. He has also learned how to say “more” of course anything food related he’s going to catch on really quick. So whenever he wants more he can communicate it now instead of just whinnying which is kind of nice except I hear “more” 60 times a day. He knows the difference between his bot ball (football) and his other ones and notices “bot ball” when it is on t.v now too. He has also been known to say bye bye on occasion along with “tequila” haha ok the last one is a joke but he does have one of those singing and dancing stuff animals you get at Walgreens and places like that, that dances to that song Tequila by The Ventures or made famous by Pee Wee Herman when he danced to it at the infamous biker bar hahaha. Anyways Luke loves to dance with this silly stuffed dog and one night my mom and I started it for him and at the end he tried to say tequila, it was Hilarious and would have won us 10,000 bucks on Americas funniest home videos but of course he wouldn’t do it again when I pulled out the video camera, oh well can't quit my day job quite yet! Incase you forgot Pee Wee’s dance here it is… Enjoy, imagine Mini Luke dancing around to this haha

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

The Boy Genius is at it again!

My boy is Brilliant! Well when it comes to food anyways

So I thought I would share with you guys a lil ditty that happened yesterday while I was at work. I get a phone call about 9:00am from Josh hootin and hollerin in my ear. When I finally get him to stop laughing in the phone he told me that our son is a genius. Yep that’s right you heard me a GENIUS hahaha. Now don’t get too excited it’s only in the “feed me” department. So here it goes, Josh and Luke are downstairs watching some good old fashion Sesame Street when Josh turns to Luke and asks “are you hungry”. Now this type of question is usually answered by him yelling something that you don’t understand and him “running” or walking fast upstairs to the kitchen where he knows the goods are. Well that day he didn’t say or should I say yell gibberish. He simply kept watching the Street. So Josh walks up stairs and starts to cut a banana up and put it in a bowl for him. As he is on his way down he sees Luke ready to eat. Which means he grabbed his chair from his toy corner lifted it up on to the couch, then shimmied his way up onto the couch and then sat down in his chair and waited patiently with his tray in hand for Josh to come down with his breakfast all by himself. I tell ya the kid can’t tell you where his freaking nose is but when it comes to eating he’ll figure it out :) Till we meet again friends, Peace and Love

I'm on a Boat!

We took Luke to Cherry Creek Reservoir last weekend so he could take his first ride on my parent’s boat! He was of course in what we like to call "baby ahh" where he’s not quite sure how to act and he just stares at things hahaha. But I think he had a good time, although if it was up to him he would have just played on the shore the whole day. His girlfriend Presleigh came to hang out also and we got some really cute pics of them!

Going back back to blogging blogging

Holy Hell its been awhile since I have wrote! Unfortunately I have been crazy busy at work, and just haven’t had the time to blog. But hopefully now that it’s a new quarter at work I will have a lil more free time to post about my BFF. SO a lot of shenanigans have gone down during my hiatus. Luke turned 1! He’s freaking walking! We moved into a way bigger house that happens to be across the street from my parents, just to name a few.

So First. Luke’s 1st steps!

So our lil man took his firsts steps 3 days before his 1st birthday! Josh and I were both there which totally rocks and we both cried hahahaha. We were in the living room just hanging out on Josh’s day off and he took 3 whole steps from me to Josh it was one of the most amazing things I had ever witnessed besides the Broncos winning their 1st Super Bowl in ’98 and Luke’s lil face the day he was born :) Any ways, he’s been on the move ever sense. It’s 2 months later and its weird to see him crawl now. Crazy how fast things happen!

Next Luke turns 1!

Can you believe it! Fastest year of my life and I have a feeling they are just going to get faster! I can’t believe it has been a year since our lil man came a month early. I can’t even put into words how much I love him and what a true blessing he has been to not just me but my family also. (yep crying a lil at work while writing hahaha) He is the greatest thing I have done with my life and I thank god everyday that he is mine! Alright enough of that lovie dovie crap. So on his actual birthday I took the day off and we took him to the Zoo for the first time. He loved it and I was surprised how alert he was and interested in all the crazy animals. We also we had a party at our house that weekend and of course the weather is sketchy in May so it was cloudy which sucks but we got everything in before it got too cold. He had a few “friends” come but mostly adults hahaha. I made him his own monkey cake to get at which he had no problem with. Josh and I opened presents since he wasn’t really into it and was overdue for a nap! He was completely spoiled by our friends and family, which we are lucky to have! Here are some pics of his days..

Moving Day!

So after finally convincing Josh (I always get my way haha) we have moved in across the street from my parents on good old Cathay St! I know this may sound crazy to 90% of you reading this but everyone knows Luke and I have a special and different bond with our parents that not a lot of people have. I am very thankful for this and am so excited and happy to be just a short walk away! Especially for Mini Luke’s sake, well and for my peace of mind when he’s acting like his alter ego Hell boy! The house is the exact layout as my parents with just a few differences. Usually it takes me awhile to feel at home after moving but I feel like I have lived here my whole life, weird maybe because I have, just across the street haha. I haven’t decided on how to paint still so its definitely a work in progress but I want to make sure its exactly what I want since we will be here for a long time! We have our very own neighbor hood watch which includes Bill Bo and Wendo and they are always on high alert, which comes in handy when you fall asleep before turning your water off in the front yard :) Its nice to have soooo much space now, the house doesn’t get as cluttered so fast which rocks because that is less cleaning for me!

Family Pics 2010

So my long time friend Jessica Chavez is quite the photographer (no we are not related, weird I know), so I had asked her to come over and take some pics of us considering I'm never in them because I’m always the one taking them! Therefore a couple Saturdays ago she came over in the morning before Josh had to go to work. Now taking into account that I am a first time mom, I didn’t even think about scheduling around Luke’s much needed nap time. So the whole time he was just salty, he was just having none of it! As a result there are maybe 3 pics out of a crap ton that he cracked a smile for us haha what can you do. So don’t mind Luke’s permanent wrinkle brow…
