So, here is a quick update of our busy life!
Luke's update:
Luke got some toys! He loves them. He stares and stares at his panda thing and grabs it. Sometimes I think it scares him though. One time he fell asleep in his carseat and all of the sudden I hear this horrified cry out of no where! I think he opened his eyes all sweet and groggy and saw a giant panda head! I'm pretty sure it terrified him. haha
He loves to grab things. We often give him his socks to hold just so he can feel cool and hold something... He also wrote his name for the first time. He personally signed a few thank you cards. :) and sneakily got some pen on his boppy at the same time!
He is officially 3 months since yesterday. time flies.
He sleeps entirely through the night. Usually from about 12 to 8. I often wake up before he does. Now we have to work on getting him to bed EARLIER!
He's working on sitting up. He does well when he is propped, but will fall flat on his face on his own. :)
Francisco's update:
He is busy with school and work.
He is an amazing Papi. He loves to play with Luke. They have so much fun!
He is working on getting his dad to bring us down to Ecuador this summer! We are pretty sure its gonna happen! :) awesome!
He is already entirely too stressed about the DAT and dental school. and thats not until this summer! silly boy.
Em's update:
I go to school everyday. Not much of an update. We get to take Luke to our creativity class every Monday night. We call it FHE... hehe. I actually don't have any homework due for the rest of the week! That in itself is a miracle. but that also means that I need to do my big stuff that I've been putting off for awhile.
For instance, I need to do my cub scout training. It will probably be a good thing since I have NO idea what I am doing with this calling...
I need to do my big creativity project that is due at the end of the semester-- but that is just a few short weeks away! (YAY graduation!!) I am planning on making a bulletin type board for Luke's nursery and then taking creative pictures to put on it for Luke as a keepsake.
I need to find a BYU cap and gown to hopefully borrow since I missed the deadline to get a discount on it... I cannot believe I am graduating from college! COLLEGE! That's like a big deal.
I need to do the dishes. Francisco and I have a new rule that once there are at least 5 substantial sized dishes in the sink, you can wash them and pass on the duty to the other. (We switch on and off who does the dishes) Well, I currently have 8 dishes... and the pile just keeps growing! ugh.
I should probably do some big cleaning stuff like vacuum and sanitize the bathroom, but that probably won't happen...
and now I have to go play with Luke because he is crying. I guess those dishes will just have to wait. :)

Em, you can totally borrow my cap and gown! I know I'm shorter and all, but I think it MIGHT be close to or the same height range as your's would be (I think it's a 5'5"-5'8") Feel free to try it out! It's the navy kind they switched to. Personally, I think the black is nicer looking, but apparently they want everyone to don navy these days. So excited for you to graduate, and Luke is getting so big, he's a cutie =)
that would be awesome! Thank you so much! I am a little bit taller than 5'8" but I don't care if my legs hang out a couple extra inches...
Awesome! Plan on it then =) You'll just need a tassel =)
Glad things are going well for you guys! Congrats on your upcoming graduation. It's such a WONDERFUL feeling. And a trip to Ecuador, Amazing!! It's such a good time to travel with Luke! Thanks for the update. Love the pictures.
I'm so sorry Luke woke up to a giant panda head--how terrifying! (I woke up from one terrifying dream last night too--had to turn on the lights--so I probably looked like Luke!) And if Luke can sign his name now he needs to write to ME so I can put his 'artwork' on my bulletin board. :) You are very, very blessed that he is sleeping so long. Seriously. It looks like Francisco is a good Papi. All the pictures look as if he adores Luke and well, he should. Who couldn't possibly adore that little face!?! I really hope the Ecuador thing comes through for you. He will do fine with the DAT just like he does well with everything else--a smart boy! Man? Probably man--when you're fifty it feels good to be called 'boy' but at twenty-something it's probably better as 'man.' heh heh ... this is getting long! What are you planning for your bulletin board? I've always wanted a creative bulletin board. And finally, if you do the dishes right after you use them they won't build up! (had to add that) And yeah, play with Luke. The dishes don't go away (even though we wish they would...) I LOVE YOU!
Oh, since I've now officially commented (rather late) you can put up a new post with new pics. OK?
