Luke made it into the University of Texas alumni magazine (The Alcalde) sporting one of his UT outfits. In true Texas form the baby section is called Bevo’s “Calf Corral” (Bevo being the name of the Longhorn mascot). One of the most amazing things about the picture is seeing how much Luke has changed over the past few months.
Last weekend we packed up the car and headed down to St. Louis to see our friends Kristal, Mike, and their daughter Abby. We were introduced to St. Louis style pizza (which we loved), had “gooey butter cake” (another St. Louis tradition), visited Grant’s Farm and The Arch, and even took in a local micro-brewery for lunch. All-in-all a great weekend!!

Luke quickly turned Abby's sunglasses into his newest teething ring.

Today was the first day Luke crawled!! He’s been rolling sideways for the past week or so, but this afternoon he finally put all the pieces together and found a forward gear. Turns out all he needed was a little motivation, or as Dan called it “bait.”
Go figure. Hundreds of age appropriate, brightly colored toys for Luke to play with and he chooses a $150 textbook instead.
