Easter and 18 months!

Easter Sunday our little man turned 18 months old. So I decided to combine Easter and his 18 month bday in one post. :) We went to the doctor today for his 18 month well check up and he weighed in at 22lbs 9 oz and was 31.5 inches tall. I can't believe how much he has grown in 1.5 years!
Birth-5lbs 14oz 19.25 inches
6 months- 15lbs 1oz 25.25 inches
12months 19lbs 10oz 29.75 inches
18months- 22lbs 9oz 31.5 inches

at 18 months Luke...
*RUNS everywhere! He is always so busy and never wants to take a break to rest. He would rather just go, go, go!
*Says a few words, including, mama, mom, dada, yeah, um, hello, hi, here, ga ga, awww, aahh!, and numnum (candy) (he mostly just jibber jabbers all day and we can't understand him most of the time) but he can really influctuate his voice!
*loves to look at books. His favorite's right now are "First Words", "8 Silly Monkey's", and pop-up books.
*is starting to get more and more into puzzles and actually getting the pieces where they go.
*has figured out how to sit in his little fold up chairs all by himself.
*likes to color and attempt to write his name "sometimes he will even say "L" as he is writing like he is spelling it out for us)
*LOVES to DANCE DANCE DANCE! This kid has always loved dancing, but he is learning and making up some more new moves almost every week. (There will be a separate post soon on all his sweet dance skills)
*is really getting into balls and is pretty good at kicking around the soccer ball with dad. He loves to play catch...but with him, it's more of "throw and chase" :)
*still really loves to talk on the phone. which this consists of him holding his hand up to his head back behind his ear and "talking" really really loud! sometimes he laughs really hard (like someone on the other line said something really funny) and he says "oh yeah" really serious. It is absolutely the funniest thing we have seen him do yet!

nicknames we call him these days are, mister, bub, bubba, little man, Lukie, Lukie D, sweet boy

now...on to the pictures!!!
Here he is on Easter morning on the prowl for his basket, apparently the Easter Bunny left a trail of eggs to it. He loved it.

Can I just say what a STUD!
checking out his loot from the Easter egg hunt

Luke and Brea playing with some eggs. Brea is my cousin's youngest who is only 9 days older than Luke. We were trying to get them to pose like they did last year, but of course 2 18 month olds are definetly different than 2 7 month olds! Click HERE to see last year's pictures. WOW! they have changed so much...that was about the time Luke was going through his "chubby" phase awwwww!!


On an Easter Egg hung at Grandma and Grandpa's house. He LOVED hunting eggs.
um...can we just say WAY to much sugar at this point?? he was being so silly.

We hope you all had a wonderful Easter weekend celebrating the fact that our Savior LIVES!

Also I MUST add that the Brownsburg Bulldogs WON!!! on Saturday night against Marion. It was a packed house and probably one of the most exciting games we have EVER seen. The Dogs won by ONE point. My cousin Austin Fish made the pass with 2.1 seconds in the game to Gordon Hayward who shot..and scored! It was so awesome. I'm sure you may have seen them play it on the news a few times this weekend. CONGRATS TO AUSTIN AND THE REST OF THE BULLDOGS! Thanks for an exciting game!
