Watching Puppies at the Mall

They were quite fiesty - and Luke was half excited/half scared! :)

Walking at the Playground

Happy as can be just wandering around on the bark chips!

Sliding!

Short and sweet! Happy boy!

Felicity at the Playground

I thought it was cool how Felicity figured out these handle bars (she's 3-1/2 now). Good job!

Somersault

Luke has been enjoying doing "somersaults" lately! He needs assistance still, but it was cute this particular evening how he would bend over and stick his head on the ground in anticipation of us rolling him over! :P The funny thing about this video is that he seems shy of the camera! He runs out of the frame and starts to do his somersault where he thinks he's hidden from the camera - too funny!

Puddle Splashing!

Luke was in water-heaven when it rained this week! Thanks to Aunt Heidi for this great coat that has a hood and fits him perfectly!

Saying "Tickle"

Luke likes to actually say "tickle tickle" when he's tickling my toes! Very cute!

Walking on the Sidewalk Again

Look at him go! Such confidence. :)

Throwing Rocks

More rock throwing - this time back in our usual outside play area. :)

Playing on the Porch

Where we normally have been playing outside was wet and muddy from the sprinklers, so when Luke seemed to want to play on the porch when we got back to the house, I happily agreed. I set up a patio chair in front of the stairs to prevent any accidents, and let him play with the rocks, pumpkins and such. He had a very fun time for quite a while! We've played on the porch another time or two since then, also. :)

Climbing the Stairs

This is how Luke likes to climb the stairs. We don't have access to any indoor stairs, so he hasn't been let loose on them independently yet. Pretty cute, yes?

Playing with the Mouse Again

This video shows his continued fascination with this mouse, as well as highlighting his new skill of walking backwards. :) I'm kind of at a bad angle in the beginning because I didn't want him to see me and stop playing.

Walking on the Grass

Luke is finally gaining confidence walking on the grass. It's more tricky since it's uneven, he's so light and his feet are so small to properly pack it down with each step. But, there were some neighbor dogs being walked along the sidewalk - gave him lots of motivation to just go for it! :)

Playing with Dirt

Good little boy fun! Until he tries to eat it. :(

Throwing the Ball

He does a good job throwing and kicking the ball here - including giving them both a running start. :) There's also some footage of us looking for his ball that was too cute to cut out. Enjoy!

Walking in Pajamas

Such a little cutie!

Waking Up Cinnamon

Pretty cute. :)

Talking on the Phone

You only really get to hear him for a brief second "talking" into his toy phone, but it's so cute! Imagine this over and over, wandering around the house. :)
