Three

 Luke turned 3 April 13! He got to enjoy a fun morning with Mommy and Daddy because Daddy went in late to work to spend some special time with Luke.  The day started with a special breakfast...

 Playing with a few new toys...


 Going to the park to feed ducks and play (and we got to see a Mama and her babies)...



 and cupcakes!!!
A few things about Luke.
**He's really funny.  I don't exactly know how to explain this, but I think he purposely tries to get laughs from others and it works!
**He's really affectionate.  He's quick to give hugs and it's common for him to say "I love you" without any prompting.  He'll also rub my legs or back to show affection
**He's complementary.  He has told me "I like your shirt" or "Those are pretty flip flops."  (We're thinking words of affirmation just might be at the top of his love languages)
**He likes to smell things, especially his Mommy or his pjs.
**He's been sleeping in his "tent," and is very particular about it.  This means there are two blankets tucked into the top bunk, covering his bed so it's like it's his own tent
**He's been #1 potty trained since December, but refuses to poop in the potty.  It's maddening, but we're doing our best.
**He's a good helper.  He seems to like to help in the kitchen and doing other things around the house.
**He seems very social and loves to have "friends" over to the house.
**I honestly can't imagine our lives without him and am so thankful God gave us to him as such a special gift.  Seeing Luke and Jake playing and laughing together is the best, and I'm truly thankful.
