Luke is 5 1/2


 On July 13th, Luke turned 5 1/2 years old.  Here are some things about Luke:

  • Luke is a very, very energetic little boy.  I swear he has the ability to suck my energy for himself.  He is all boy and loves running around, jumping on all the furniture (no matter how many times I tell him not to), and hitting and kicking things.
  •  
  • Luke loves animals.  His favorite tv show is Wild Kratts.  He knows lots of information about various animals.
  • Luke loves stuff.  He always wants new stuff.  He doesn't care if it's a piece of junk from a birthday goodie bag.  He will love that thing for a couple days before he will want something new.  Isaac and I don't really know what to do about him always wanting things.  We are trying to teach him not to be materialistic.  He is very grateful for everything people give him, and he really doesn't care if it's a little dumb piece of junk, he will love it.  So that aspect is good, but he seems to never be satisfied and always wants something new.
  •  
  • Luke loves playing with his friend Jett.  They are together all the time.
  • Luke will be starting kindergarten soon, and I couldn't be more excited (except for the drop off/pick up schedule).  He knows all his letter and sounds, and hopefully he will be reading soon.
  • Luke still picks on poor Hazel a lot.  He is always stealing her toys and making her cry.  I think he things he is "playing" with her, but we are still trying to figure out how to get him to be nice.
  • Luke is usually a really happy little man.  He is really quick to laugh and giggle.  And he still loves snuggling with me.
  •  
Luke is a tough little dude to hold his own when he is surrounded by sisters.  Sometimes I worry about him because he begs me to paint his nails and do girly things.  But I'm so glad there are a whole bunch of little boys on our street for him to play with.  He plays with his friend, Jett, almost every day and is lost without him.  Luke is a really good little boy.  He's my buddy and I can't imagine life without him.
