We are in big trouble!

Luke is on the move! This morning I placed him on his gym mat and when I looked over at him a few minutes later he was making his way toward Liam's toys. I asked Liam if he saw how his brother had gotten there but didn't get much of response. Anyway, Luke had gotten ahold of Liam's toy cellphone and was pushing the buttons. He kept making it say "Hi there! Want to go out and play?" He seemed to like that. I got some video of how he actually got from point A to point B. He kind of drags himself rather that getting up on all fours but it seems to be working for him at the moment. Except when he gets into trouble. He seem to like Liam's toys rather that his own so several times he got himself to Liam's backet of toys. The problem is he seems to clunk his head on the basket every time. I guess he'll figure it out eventually.



Luke's other new trick is eating real food. We had bacon and eggs this past Sunday and Luke wanted some. I think he would have really liked some bacon but had to make do with toast.



Liam has been busy too, especially when it comes to water. A few weekends ago, we went to visit family at their lake house. Liam has always been hesitant around water and has never really been able to relax and have fun. This time I held him with me in a big inflatable tube while Daddy did silly things like swim under us and pop out the other side. In no time at all, he was laughing and splashing. He even let his cousin Katie take over and had lots of fun with her too! The highlight of his whole day came later though when he got to help Uncle Frank drive the boat.
