Green beans

Does Luke green beans?

Not so much.

Biker chicks

We decided to pull the bikes out of the garage and ride around our cul-de-sac. Izzy rarely rides her tricycle so I was impressed at how coordinated she's become with regards to pedaling. I tried riding Sean's bike which is WAY too tall for me. I haven't been on a bike in MANY years and was a little afraid to get on it. Thankfully the old saying about never forgetting how to ride a bike is true. I know Sean was secretly hoping for me to wipeout since I passed the camera on to him for fear I would do such that and break the camera along with my bones. He was really hoping for evidence of my clumsiness.

Here we are making our tough biker girl faces. We're thinking of starting our own gang with jackets and everything. Let that be a warning to all of you litter bugs who toss your candy wrappers near our yard...you know who you are!

Of course she's wearing a dress...such a slave to fashion.

Puppy PJs

The joys of having a big sister.

We were all playing in Izzy's room yesterday and thought it would be fun to dress Luke up. Although I'd like to place all the blame for this on Izzy, I must assume some of the responsibility as I instigated the whole scenario. Sorry, Luke. I must say, though, he looks quite adorable. Just the first of many future blackmail pictures I'm sure. He's just lucky I don't let her play with make-up yet...YET!

Izzy wanted to cover his head in pretty bows but he still barely has and hair aside from new peach fuzz growth she had to settle for one. We agreed that the bow really brings out the blue in his eyes. Ha!

Fun with Luke

Izzy takes such good care of her little brother. She's so good about trying to calm him when he cries or entertain him when he's bored. We were both admiring his smile yesterday and smothering him in kisses together. It never ceases to amaze me how great she is with him. And I remain amazed at how big he looks next to his petite sister.

While cooking yesterday, Sean put a bowl on Luke's head for a few giggles. Luke seemed to find it almost as hilarious as we did.

Luke is 4 months old

At four months old, Luke weighs in at 16.6 lbs. (80th percentile) and measures in at 26.5 inches (95th percentile). His head circumference is 16.5 (40th percentile). Growing so fast! Last month he started rolling over--a lot. He's already trying to crawl and chatters constantly. He continues to eat like a champ and will soon be introduced to some veggies...mmmmm. Better get the parka ready. We'll be covered in peas soon.
