Luke is 9 months old!









I am out of here, Mom.  You better be done!

The original "Dr. Teeth"

The resemblance in uncanny!

The head tilt

Um, can you say "charming"?

Kate gets in on the head tilt action
Three quarters of a year already under my belt!  That's right everyone - I am 9 months old.  And I am living it up!  I have mastered the official crawl and I am like lightning!  I chase after Kate all day long.  I have tooth number 3 coming in - top front left.  And it is a honker!  I come from the family of big teeth, so it should come as no surprise that I am growing a super tooth, but Mom has still taken to calling me "Dr. Tooth." Apparently there was some muppet by the same name who had disproportionately GIANT teeth.  All of this tooth-growing has really been putting me in quite the mood lately.  But I will tell you what makes me happy - food.  I love everything!  Grilled chicken, meatballs,  ravioli, peas, carrots, corn, beans, rice, scrambled eggs and blueberry muffins.  And I have found the way to charm everyone when I am in my high chair.  I tilt my head completely to the side and smile.  I can always get Dad, Mom, and Kate to play along.  In other news, I am quite the adventurous little man.  I am into EVERYTHING.  I like to dig in Mom's plants and get all dirty, I love crawling up stairs, although I have not quite figured out how to get back down which presents a problem.  I love to "pet" my dogs, especially Lucy.  Bath time is still my favorite part of the day.  It is so relaxing.  Frankly, it is the only time (aside from sleeping) that I am even remotely still.  Kate and I continue to have wrestlemania each and every day.  I adore her.  My face lights up when she walks in the room.  She has so many cute names for me.  She calls me "Buddy Man, Buddy Boy, Lukie Boy", but rarely ever just Luke.  Hopefully these names don't stick until she is a cool senior in high school and I am just a freshman.....
