Flashback Friday - Luke

All the focus is on Luke right now since it was his birthday and first day of school so I thought I'd do a flashback on him just to round out the week.

Luke was a very big baby 9 lbs 3 oz and I was HUGE when I was prego with him. Luckily I don't think I have any pictures during the end. Right from the moment he was born he was a sweet baby. After having such a hard baby with Tayson we couldn't get over how easy Luke was. For a long time I thought he was just like most babies but because of Tayson we thought he was the best. But now that I've had 2 more kids and they have been normal kids I realize just how easy Luke was. He was honestly the easiest, happiest, sweetest baby. He ate like a champ, slept even better and smiled all the time. He LOVED his binky (it was quite a challenge getting rid of it when he was 3).

He would always just hang out in his car seat as happy as could be. He and Tayson are only 2 years apart so most of my energy went to keeping my high energy 2 year old happy and since Luke was content to sit in his car seat smiling that's where he could always be found.

Like I said he was pretty easy to take care of. This is how Todd and Luke could be found most mornings while I was either at the gym or getting ready for work. For some reason the nickname Bubba stuck with Luke. We still call him Bubba most of the time. Maybe it's because he was such a big fat happy baby.

Tayson loved taking care of Luke. The day I brought Luke home from the hospital Tayson wanted to play with him and ended up scratching the side of his nose and Luke still has a scar from it. Also, the jammies Tayson is wearing in this picture were still worn by Luke until 2 weeks ago when I finally took them away :)

Luke loves the computer and always has. Right now he is trying to decide if he should be a doctor or work on the computer like his daddy does. He's pretty good with the computer so I don't think it would be a bad career move for him.

Luke is such a lovable kid. He loves to cuddle and is very sweet and sensitive. He is a total perfectionist and loves to make people happy. One of my favorite things is that Luke and Tayson are pretty much polar opposites which makes them perfect brothers.

I love you Lukey!
