Luke's First Christmas

















































We had a great Christmas with our family and Luke, who is now 6 weeks old. We spent Christmas Eve out with my parents and my sister Joy and her family and then Christmas day with the Michaelsons, both of which we really enjoyed. Luke continues to do well and is growing so quickly. He seems to have moved so quickly through the process from premie to newborn and now finally 0-3month sizes. The weeks have conintued to fly by as I have taken awhile to update this again. We are looking forward to spending more time with family and friends over the next week. As I write this it has begun to snow again. I went shopping yesterday and Coe watched Luke and it was great to get out for a bit with Coe's mom and sister.

3 Weeks Old






Well the time has flown by so far. Luke is getting on a good schedule and things continue to go smoothly. He had his first bath on Thanksgiving and did pretty well until I pored water over his head, then he belted a cry. I loved his hair after his bath as I put a hat on him and forgot to comb it. The picture is the end result. I am enjoying being home with him as we both continue to get adjusted. Ruby and I have been taking walks almost daily as the weather permits. She continues to do well with Luke. My sister Joy was here over Thanksgiving and we got some pictures of the new cousins together as Brock is just 11 days older then Luke. It will be fun seeing them grow over the years. Today Luke has a check up and it will be interesting to see how much he weighs. He has finally grown out of his preemie clothes and into the new born ones.
