Luke turns T-H-R-E-E!!!!!

Sigh, I don't like birthday posts because it means my babies are growing up too fast!!!!  This sweet boy makes us all laugh on a daily basis and is wild yet as snuggly and as kissy as can be!  He is the biggest Mamas boy you'll ever meet and I love it! :)  His athleticism still amazes us and we always joke that he's gonna make us rich!  He still naps about 2 hours a day although we've tried several times to wean him because he's up pretty late at night.  Maybe I'll have some luck this summer when we aren't so busy in the afternoons.  He will often surprise us in the morning by getting himself dressed before he even comes out of his room and he's as tidy as can be and does not like to go to bed with a messy room, seriously! Ha, I wish a certain middle sister would have inherited that trait! :)  His world revolves around Hailey and we have to remind him often that he loves Kailee too (a typical conversation would be, "it's time to get the girls from the bus." "Hailey's all done with school?" "yes, and Kailee too" or "Hailey has soccer tonight?" "yes, and Kailee too")...it's as strange as it is cute and our only theory is that Kai is so rough with him.  It doesn't seem to bother Kailee, so I guess they are each comfortable with their relationship, ha!  They all play so well together and the girls are very patient with him and include him when they are trying to play something.  And finally, our favorite thing from this jokester is everything is a hotdog!  I have no idea how it started, but he calls Daddy a hotdog, he'll answer a question with "hotdog", he'll end songs with "hotdog"...it's pretty silly, but sums up our crazy boy!

Leevi waited to go in to work and we celebrated Luke at the start of the day since the afternoon was filled with TWO soccer games!  
We let him open most of his 'toy' presents so he'd have time to play with them during the day!  He's been begging for this Batman Lego Duplo set ever since he saw the commercial on TV and after playing with a similar one at the Ducotes!  He was so happy that he was kissing the present!!! :)

I love the way he makes a 3!
He waited so patiently all day and we finally had cake at 9pm, sigh!!!!
Sweet boy!
 
This picture makes me laugh because he was fussing at the girls for helping him! He's a big boy now!

Happy birthday, Luke!!!  We all love you so much!!!!!
