Cheers to being a mom for 2 years!

Luke is 2!
I can't believe it.

We gave him 3 different birthday parties. We love birthday cake and will make any excuse to have some.


One with the Shumway cousins, one with just Dave and I and one with the Hales cousins.
He has been obsessed with basketball lately (probably because his dad plays so much of it!). So I tried to make him a basketball cake. I looked on the internet and I don't have a prayer of making a fancy cake. But orange icing and chocolate topping works for me.

I could write a huge post about all the things that he is doing but I will put the top 5 that come to my mind:

1. He repeats everything you say. My mom says he is like a little parrot because you can always count on him to say what you just did. As we left the house the other day I said "dang it" because I forgot something and sure enough a second later I hear Luke say "dag it".

2. He LOVES his daddy. As soon as I mention anything like "daddy's coming home soon!" he will wait by the door until he comes home.

3. Whenever we leave or anybody leaves the house, or just the room for that matter, he always says "back!" He wants to make sure that we are coming back.

4. If I ever leave and come home from something he runs through the house with his arms open wide and a huge smile on his face until he finds me. That sweet sound of "mommy!" is so precious to me. He does it for his daddy too. Precious boy.

5. Whenever we talk about his upcoming baby brother he will kiss my belly. He is going to be such a sweet big brother.

6. He loves Buzz and Biddy (Woody).

Okay so I added one more.

The pregnancy is going well. I have an ultrasound coming up to check on my placenta. I will let you know what happens.

And here are some pictures of what we have been doing lately.








I love this boy.
