Things our son LUKE likes to do these days....





Luke is 3 and is quite the little man. He keeps us laughing despite all the mischief he gets into. Here are some of the tings he enjoys these days...
1) wearing little to no clothing, I have to beg for him to at least wear underwear around the house
2) when he does need to put on clothes, he enjoys choosing his outfit (always a lovely match :) and he can take a good 30 minutes to get dressed
3) he likes to do everything "by myself"
4) he is newly potty trained and he often enjoys going pee in random places, these are some of the places we have caught him...standing with the backdoor open peeing outside, Allie's pack & play, standing in Allie's crib peeing over the side onto the carpet (he missed her bedding, which was the only positive), in the middle of the street on his Diego motorcycle, and right in the middle of the park multiple times (I let the boys go outside, but I always tell them to find a secret bush, Luke has no intention to go and hide, he just pulls his pants down for all to see)...we are working on this problem!!!
5) Makes mommy get many looks and comments from other parents because....he wears a wife beater to Andrew's pre-school when it is 30 degrees outside, forgets his shoes at home and has to pick Andrew up at school with no shoes on, throws his shoe in the car and it landed in one of my student's boxes of books which was delivered to the student so he had to wear one shoe into our school office and to McDonalds for lunch in the rain, insists on wearing flip flops to the grocery store and Nordstrom which began hurting his feet so he was walking around Nordstrom with no shoes on and on top of it he kept calling it Wallmart not Nordstrom (the Nordy's ladies gave quite the looks at my homeless looking boy).....I was trying the whole natural consequences with him, but these things really don't bother him, so I have to come up with a new approach
6) Luke enjoys to squeeze any type of tube onto random furniture or the wall, for example....desitin, neosporin, lotion, more lotion (how high do I have to keep my darn lotion), ear drops
7) See pictures above...he sleeps so randomly, I found him the other day in Allie's crib with only underwear on, his clothes on the floor, the diaper bag emptied, and blankets all over...this is a common scene during naptime
8) He is a very pokey boy when it comes to getting in and out of the car, as if he doesn't take long enough he now likes to seat belt in his 2 CareBears everytime we go somewhere...add 10 more minutes onto getting into the car!
9) he likes to help himself to the pantry and snacks, filling up bowls, leaving messes, filling up cups from the water spout on the fridge, leaving more messes
10) He loves to play "I Spy my little eye" but he always chooses the color dark green, but then changes it to dark blue and gets mad because no one can guess what he is talking about..he wants to play at least a couple times a day!!
We are in a PHASE......hopefully
we love our little guy and thankfully he is so darn cute...we're currently deciding what thing to tackle first, hopefuly he'll outgrown a couple things very soon!!
