Stink-ay

Just a few pictures of Luke post bath when he got on a kick about everything, including himself just bathed, me (likely true by 9pm), our house, etc...was being declared STINK-AY. His pronunciation. I just laughed and went with it.

March 17th

Great day. We wore some green. Thanks, Uncle Glenn. Sun was shining. Wind was warm. We went on a few adventures. We took some trains with us. And photographed them. We visited a golf course. We played at the park. I tried to get a self shot photo of me and my son. I love what I actually caught. We saw our families. We went to my office. It will never be the same. Luke was aiming to break at least one thing on my desk and it was still fairly amusing. The office survived the visit. I caught Luke and Steve in a lovely moment. We ate some treats. We said "I love you" a lot. Great day.

Picnic

These photos are of Luke and I having an indoor picnic where he is stealing the blue cheese off of my salad with a smirk. Today we went on a real picnic on a lovely spring day, fed some geese and ducks,went down some slides, hugged Gma Susan when she popped by for a minute and then actually ate our lunch at her house after some great outdoor fun.

This morning Luke came to the side of the bed and said -
1. "I love you, mommy"
2. in a whisper "Mommy, I need to go to Target. There is a brown and blue train there that I have never seen before and I need to get it"

He had a day with Gma Susan yesterday and enjoyed a trip to the mall :) We did go to Target but he selected a small toy and we hightailed it out of there before he could change his mind!

He is getting books read to him for an early night since he had no nap and Steve and I have plans for a lovely dinner of salad, broccoli, ribeyes and gnocchi with gorgonzola sauce. YUM! we may not eat until 9, but it will be a wonderful in house date.

Before his stories he was outside with me admiring the nearly full moon and taking turns with me talking about how much we love each other. To the moon and back for sure, Luke! I love telling him that I am proud to be his mommy and then he will hug me and say "I am proud to be your mommy"

All by myself

Luke put this track together all by himself, which is one of his favorite things to do these days - anything ALL BY HIMSELF!

Sometimes I wonder what it would be like to have even one normal dog...

But then I look out the window and see one of Luke's golf clubs being put to good use. Dogs make life better, even when they are all kinds of crazy!

Love

Five years ago, I got to marry the man of my dreams.

He is still the man of my dreams, and now we have this nearly 3 year old love bug keeping us on our toes. (Unless he is napping!)

Happy Anniversary, Steve! I love you more each day...
