Lukey's Little Print

Every year to their fifth birthday's I make prints of my children's hands. My sister started me on it when Nikolas was born and she gave me this cool tower with five tins starting from one year to five year. Lukas just did his fourth handprint. I love being able to see how tiny their hands were when they were just one year old and then watch the progression every year. I'm totally sentimental like that and can never get enough of making hand and foot prints. I figure; I can never make too many, but I can definitely make too few and never be able to go back.

Just to show how much Lukey is growing up; here are some conversations we've had with him lately:

Luke was roaring, (a common occurrence) so Tone' asked him if he was a lion. Lukas said, "I'm not a lion, I'm a Lukas....and I'm a MAN!" He said it with such conviction, Tone' could only agree.

Then, we were all sitting at the dinner table when Lukas started telling us what he would do if a bad guy came in our house:
Lukas: "If a bad guy came in, I would poke his eyeball out, and then.... I would kick him in the MAILBOX!"
Oh my, I nearly spit my mouthful of food everywhere. I couldn't stop laughing for quite some time, hoo, makes me laugh now. Where do they come up with this stuff?!?!!

and if all this isn't enough cuteness, just check out this video of Lukas reciting the Pledge of Allegiance.

That Pledge of Allegiance was the cutest thing. Worth the wait. Those bad guys better watch out around your house. There could be some mailbox kicking going on. Bwahahaha

Oh, that voice! That voice! More Lukey videos, please. Kids are the funniest little creatures. I am sure Ed and I laugh way more on a daily basis since having kids.

Haha! I know, I need to record his voice more before it changes. It will change, won't it?
