Month 21

Dear Luke,

I am late with this update. That of course means that all further updates will probably be late. Once I've been late, I usually make a habit of it.

You went from one word utterances to four word utterances this month. You are a TALKER! It is so crazy how just one day it all clicked. Now you say things like, "Daddy go get cars". You are ordering us around and we are following directives because we are so thrilled to hear your sentences!

You love to look at the Christmas lights. At night when we get home you tell me to "go drive". You sit in my lap while we go around the block about 3 MPH and you say, "see 'em, SEEEEE 'EM!" You honk the horn repeatedly/lengthy and loudly while shouting, "HONKIE, HONKIE, HONKIE".

I knew the day would come where you would become a Daddy's boy. I think that time has come. You love playing cars with Dad. He is usually the first thing you ask for and talk about when you wake up in the morning. When you get something new you say, "show Daddy". You can't wait to share your favorite treasures with Dad. You two spend most of your time together in the floor playing cars. You guys have named all of your favorite cars. You two also play quite a bit of football in the living room. Tackling is on your top five list of things to do, for sure!

You are saying a million things and blowing our minds in a million different ways. Christmas is almost here and we are going to have an absolute ball. We can't wait!

Love,
Daddy and Mama
