3 inches

Started like this on 1/29... Daddy took Luke out for a quick view before bed.

This is what it looked like the next day. (Notice the footprints above were covered with fresh snow!)

This was the fourth time it snowed since Luke was born.

Our neighbors across the street built the largest snowman I've ever seen!

I can remember wearing layers, layers, and more layers when I was little. Well, that's definitely what Luke got to experience.

Notice how happy he is when they finally all get peeled off :0)

Day 2- Getting ready to go out.

Luke's 1st sled :0)

I don't think he liked the ride with daddy any better, but everything was fine once he got out.

Jasie didn't want to have anything to do with it. It was sad that we weren't able to build a snowman or even make a snowball since ice fell overnight and made it too crunchy, but we could still make a snow angel!

We were so glad that daddy didn't have to go teach his weekend class and got to play with us in the biggest snow I can remember in a long time!

Later that night we were able to make it out to our pre-scheduled 5th Sunday bowling outing. Luke just happened to have the perfect shirt!

Happy 11 Month Birthday

Luke turned 11 month's old on Jan. 27th. Here's some things that happened during his 11th month of life that you haven't seen yet:

• Started cruising around his crawl & cruise toy, Grampa & Grammie's ottoman, etc.
• Bit us several times (we never saw or were told of this happening to any other children)
• Went to his first wedding~ congratulations Uncle Billy & Aunt Barbara
• Started repeatedly saying what sounded like dada
• Reduced his rice to 2 tsps. per ounce & started using a level 3 nipple, instead of the Y-cut
• Started waving at us
• Started moving around the bathtub to get his toys
• Everything that made noise had to be removed from his crib (Frosty, Rainforest, & Seahorse). It was sad, but he was taking an hour or longer to go to sleep.

and....

Stopped wearing size 3 diapers.
The closet HAD to be purged of 9 month clothes!

He was a little drummer boy.
Surprised daddy at work on pajama day during basketball homecoming week.
We started working with him to hold his bottle.
Was SO cute!
