Getting big!

How cute is this boy in his Sunday best?!
We took a picture of him in his car seat the other day to show how big his cheeks are getting- they hang over the straps! Then we were looking back on his first pics in his car seat and couldn't believe how much bigger he his!
What a difference 8 weeks makes!

Update

Well, Luke is now almost 7 weeks old! We really can't believe how fast these weeks have flown by. As of a week ago he weighs 8 lbs 11 oz. He sure is keeping us busy and tired but he's a keeper! Here are way more pictures than the majority of you would ever care to see but SOME people have been requesting a lot so here you go!

These first pics are ones that my sister, Tiffani, took while she was here with her nice camera. Luke was exactly one week old.

We were able to go to Beaver for Christmas since he was 3 weeks early. It took forever to get there with horrible weather and stops to feed him, but it was well worth it. As expected, Luke was a big hit and got spoiled rotten by being held ALL the time.

This was Luke Christmas Eve...

And Christmas morning... maybe next year he'll be ready to take in all the excitement.




On our way back from Utah my car's transmission basically stopped working and we got stuck in Grand Junction, CO. Luckily we were very blessed to find some distant cousins to stay with who were the kindest people we have ever met. They ended up driving us all the way back to Denver, while my car stayed there for the rest of the week to get fixed. Then Ashlee and Jeff picked it up for us on their way back to Kansas (we can't thank you guys enough!). Needless to say it was a VERY price trip back home but we are very grateful for those who helped us out.

We spent New Years Eve with some of our great friends we have made here in Denver.

THE END!
