Happy Born Day #3


Today you are 4! Can you believe it? It seems like many moons ago that you came into this world. So many things have happened since you arrived. You had to grow up very fast in such a short period of time. I think you did a great job!



I do have to say, for sure you were being difficult before you even got here.




After 16 hours of labor and 5 doses of pitocin, with no drugs, mind you, you finally decided to come out...sunny side up...OUCH!



You've been causing me problems ever since....and I wouldn't have it any other way!


Sometimes when you are really naughty and you drive me crazy and I call grandma Valerie for advice, she tells me that you are just like me when I was little. I kinda like that!

Grandma Valerie and Aunt Nee Nee like to call you a little stinker! It's especially funny when you rile them up. I kinda like that too.


Daddy doesn't like to admit it but he named you after one of his favorite movie characters...Luke Skywalker...



...and what's really cool about that is that you LOVE Star Wars so I think that's pretty neat.


We also love your name because you were named after my grandpa Lowell and daddy's grandpa Lowell. We like to call you L.L. Cool H.







Before you were even a twinkle in our eye, we thought our family was complete...that was until you decided to show up!



And how cool was that, that we were wrong...because now that you're here, life is "exciting"!



There are so many things about you that I love so much. It's hard to even pick out my favorite thing. Besides your laughter and your humor and your excitment, and your utter cuteness, one of my favorite things for sure is...YOUR EYES!



You're the only one that has Mommy and Daddy's green eyes and they're beautiful!







I also love how you get excited over the smallest things and you love your brothers and sisters so unconditionally. You are such a sweet little guy and sometimes misunderstood, but just know this...





We love you #3 and life would not be as humorous or exciting without you here. We might call you little pet names like "The Destroyer" or "Lukie Pukie" or even "Devil Spawn"...but know that you make us laugh, you make us cry, but most of all you complete us!

Happy Born Day...

4 years old...WOW!
