Family photo day!!

So I wasn't in the mood to blog today but decided to bite the bullet and get'er done. I should blog about the girls day of beauty at Sarah's house last week but I will leave that for another day.

On Saturday Sarah and I went to her best friends little ones first birthday party. We had a really nice time and it was so fun to see Renee's sweet ones. I would share pictures but.....brace yourself.....I didn't bring my camera!!!! I KNOW!!! I will have to borrow Sarah's disc so I can post a couple of pictures.

Yesterday we were planning on a family get together and to take some family photos. The weather did not co-operate. We had a nice day anyways and of course I had MY camera!! Lukas is really doing well with sitting all by himself. Here he was reaching for some of his toys.

Then he decided why bother with all the stuff on the floor when he had his own built in toys....his toes. And, yes he can reach them and loves chewing on them!! OK, so all of you that are reading this, try and remember back when you were limber enough to even TOUCH your toes let alone put them in your mouth!!!!!

Since it was supposed to be picture day Lukas decided to follow in his daddy's footsteps. Every time school pictures came around Jesse would wake up with a scratch or a bump or a bite on his face. Well, Lukas had another scratch by his eye and about 4 bug bite on his head on picture day.......but how cute is he!!!

Lukas having a conversation with great grandpa. They were discussing college choices. Shall we say a certain Michigan University was mentioned!!!

And another one with great grandma.

At dinner time Lukas needed a highchair and grandma obliged. Not to worry after this I went out today and now we have a real one. Anyways, Lukas was going to get his first taste of peas. It started out just fine......

............and things went downhill from there. Now that wouldn't have been so bad but after one bite he would make this face and then gag......we laughed and tried again....NOPE not happening...back to the cereal and we will have to try peas again later!!

After dinner the rest of the family participated in intense Wii session. Many, many, many games were played!!

Like I said the weather did not co-operate with us, it rained, but we shall try again. In the meantime Jesse and Sarah practiced there brotherly- sisterly love pose!!

Yup!!! That lasted a long time.......

Now you can all see why I miss having the kids at home!!! Those were the days!!! I am really glad that even though they are adults and leading their own lives they still love one another and get along SO WELL!!!!

Once again, I will close with Lukas. He so loves his fingers these days....one or the other is almost always in his mouth. And how cute are those legs!!

Trust me from the angle of the picture it looks like I let him sit too close to the table...I did not!!
