Somebody has been a good boy!

 
And that somebody definitely is on Santa's nice list!  Except according to every guy who sees the picture, his outfit made the naughty list.  Oh, well. I think he is adorable!! And so did Santa, all the elves and everyone waiting in line at Castleton Square line. I mean, he's a baby.  With baby leg warmers (aka baby legs). What a good boy!
 
He is doing great- still only 2 bottom teeth but this past week he has been a little cranky.  I'm thinking his top teeth are trying to poke through.  Still BF but eating lots of food - pancakes, beans, baby foods, spaghetti, veggie puffs. Hasn't taken that first step yet, but he's super fast crawling and cruising.  And give him pots & pans in the kitchen- ah, the banging is music to my ears.   Hard to believe next week he will be 11 months next week. 
 
Luke truly is a happy, bouncy baby.  We have had recent fun with all our cousins, with little friend Jesse, went to Camille's 1st birthday party and had another play date with Reid & Camille.  Ahhhh. Such joy.
 
Thinking back to last Christmas when Matt & I were not being able to spend the day with my parents, Grandma, aunts, uncles, sisters, nieces, and cousins. As we stayed home and awaited a baby, we had no idea what the year ahead had in store for us.  It makes me extra happy how special this Christmas will be spending time with both Matt's and I's families and Luke being there to celebrate the miracle of Christmas.  What a joy he is!
