Luke is eating on his own quite a bit now. He's chomping away on crackers and bread with his gummy mouth. This morning he had sucked a cracker down to a slimey stump before losing the cracker between his legs (lovely messy pants!). He left the goo all over his face, his seat, his shirt, and I even found some in his hair. I thought it was funny that the dimples on his knuckles are deep enough that there was room for slimey cracker to fill even them!
Luke's friend Mara came over on Saturday evening, and they took turns getting baths in the sink before going to sleep. Yesterday we visited with Luke's cousins Roehn and Cameryn, but I didn't get any new pictures.
Luke has had this funny little cough for the past few days and I've been thinking it was his new sound, but yesterday his nose was really congested too and it looks like he's got a full-blown cold this morning. Poor kid. Thankfully it hasn't seemed to dampen his cheer, and his naps today have been nice and long.
This morning Luke got up on his hands and knees and rocked back and forth for about twenty seconds before falling on his face. The face-plant didn't seem to phase him and he tried it one more time before crying, rolling over and doing this adorable new trick he's picked up: holding his arms out to be picked up.
Wow. He's going to be crawling when I come, eh? :)
