Sitting and Reading

It is rare these days to find my child sitting still. This afternoon, he sat for atleast 20 minutes just looking at books! I couldn't believe it!

We had an unexpected trip to see Santa this weekend! We went to the mall to do some Christmas shopping. While standing outside Belk, Santa walked by. (coming back from break) Luke was star struck! Since he was just returning from break, there was a short line...so we took advantage of it! Of course the shirt he was wearing was smeared with his snack so I ran into Belk to get a new shirt while Thomas stood in line with Luke. When it was our turn Luke did not want to sit with Santa. He cried and cried, which was expected. So Santa suggested we sit with him too. If Thomas and I would have known we were going to be taking family pictures today, we would have dressed a little better! Good memories!

Airplanes

We went to one of the smaller airports this past weekend to checkout the airplanes landing. Unfortunatley we went too early and didn't see any in the sky. But we did walk to see one and he was so excited to be so close to a real airplane! We will try again another weekend.

Big Green Tractor

A trip to Lowes means we have to take a turn sitting on the big green tractor...Luke and Daddy!

Its beginning to look a lot like Christmas...

I love Christmas, especially all the decor that comes with it! I can't wait until the day after Thanksgiving when we can get our tree and begin decorating! We started early this year with something for Luke...he loves it!! Thanks Anny!

Happy Halloween!

Luke was a skeleton for Halloween this year. We only visited a close friend and his Greenville grands but had a fun night!

I don't know how he learned this but he sure is smart!
