I realize it's been a while since I posted. We've just been so busy lately. (Of course, it never really does slow down - but 4th quarter is extra-special busy for both my full-time job and Avon, not to mention all the holiday stuff going on). So please forgive the tardy posts. I will update you with some stories now and then some pictures later....
I have a few funny stories to share with you... he keeps us laughing constantly. I don't know if he intends to be funny or if he just is. Here are a few examples of his antics lately:
1) The other day I was kinda muttering to myself, saying "Where's my purse?" And he repeated me, "where's my purse." Then I said "huh?" So he repeats me, "huh." Then I asked him, "are you a parrot?" He said, "No, I'm Luke." So later I'm telling Greg this story because I thought it was so cute and Luke overheard me. Before I got to the punchline, he says "I'm a parrot."
2) That little booger is so smart. He knows exactly where the VCR tapes go and where the DVDs go. He gets them out and puts them in all by himself! The only problem is that he doesn't hold the DVDs just right and he's mucked a couple of them up so badly that now they won't play. The other day he tried to stick a VCR tape in but it wouldn't go in. I pushed and then pushed a little harder but it still wouldn't go in. So I opened the little door with my finger and looked in -- there inside the VCR was a DVD! Without thinking, I exclaim "Oh crap!" And then he repeats me "Oh crap!" Anyway, he's addicted to TV. Even if he's not really watching, he still pitches a fit if you change the channel! Greg and I can't watch anything we want to watch til after he's gone to bed!
3) Luke and I were up in the bonus room. I was letting him watch tv while I was straightening up. I kept walking in and out of the room doing various thing. He would say "Sit Mommy, Stay In." And I would tell him, "Hold on, I need to swap out the laundry." Then when I came back in, I'd hear "Stay In" again. Then, he walked over to me and very seriously said "I've told you three times, now stay in!" I lost it - busted out laughing right in front of him. I couldn't help it!
4) Another thing that absolutely cracks me up is when he sings the Wiggles! He knows all the words and can sing all the songs either with or without the music - it doesn't matter. "Fruit salad. Yummy. Yummy." Now, I never said he's in tune with the music, but he still sings it! I keep trying to catch this on video but he stops anytime the video camera comes out. One day I'm going to have to be sneaky and hide it from him. It's so cute! He is going to be SO excited... I got us tickets to see
The Wiggles in Knoxville on November 10th! And they are great seats! Front-row balcony!! Luke is going to be SO excited!! I can't wait.
Luke's favortie favorite song is "Toot Toot Chuga Chuga Big Red Car".
(mine too, actually)!!
