I mentioned in the last post that Luke had his first doctor's appointment... he's a healthy little one. Already growing and doing so well. Like a crazy first-time mom I was taking pictures in the doctor's office. (the nurse assured me that I'm not the only one.) :)
Luke's umbilical cord stump fell off earlier so we were able to give him his first bath. He HATED it! Poor little thing screamed the entire time! He has the funniest little cry - almost sounding like a little bleating sheep. We were quick with the bath and soon he was his happy little self, snug in his towel.
First bath = a most unpleasant experience for Luke
This picture doesn't quite capture it, but Luke was quite content to be bundled up and held by Daddy after being tortured in the tub.
Today was Matt's first day back at school. Since Mom Thomson is still in town we thought it would be a good day to bring Luke to school to introduce him to all Matt's students. Luke was the most popular guy on campus! As soon as we strolled into the hallway he was swarmed by students. He did so good and tolerated all the curious, adoring faces pouring over him- not to mention the 90 degree heat!
(we are pretty sure Luke is just a California boy- he can take the heat no problem but HATES being cold.) :)
Matt's basketball team had a game at home today so Luke was able to take in his first basketball game too! (we only made it for the second half but that's good enough for now) Matt's team won so that was a lot of fun. Luke, again, was so good and slept through all the whistles and buzzers. One of the player's moms joked that Luke was probably used to those sounds already thanks to all the basketball games I sat through while I was pregnant with him.
First Basketball game.
And a few more pics... just for fun.
such as sweetie- I could sit like this all day.

WOW you are good. I did not leave the house with either child for at least 3 weeks. Yikes. So glad he is a good baby and you are both doing well. Keep sending the pictures love to see him grow.
Good for you guys getting out so much :) That's great that he is a good baby. Enjoy the time where he just sleeps everywhere you go and you don't have to entertain him :)
Such a cutie. I can't wait to meet him on Thursday! Keep the pictures coming...love it!
Good for you getting out with Luke! besides the dr, we didn't get too far in the first few weeks, but it was Feb in Boston. I guess the CA weather can be more encouraging to get out and about. Sophia didn't like baths at first either- we ended up keeping a warm wet washcloth and a rubber duck on her tummy and that seemed to calm her down a bit. He's adorable and you look amazing!
what a busy little guy. And I'm glad you remembered your camera to document all those events. I would've forgotten...
and as has been said already, Luke is such an adorable little boy. Enjoy!
(sorry, for some reason it posted that I commented 3 times... so I deleted the last two)
Those two pictures of Matt with Luke in his classroom and outside with more students brought tears to my eyes! Matt looks SOOO much like his Dad! Randy would be SOOOOO proud of you as parents and especially of his little grandson =) Blessings on all of you...Jan Kok (Mom of Sara and Lisa, and friend of Grandma Jan)
