28 Months Old

Sometimes I feel like time is going so fast that I can't keep up with this blog.  My Lu is another month older, already!  Time seriously needs to slow down!  Luke is 28 months old now, almost a year an a half, and is growing and changing so much.  He is getting to be so much fun with his wild, sassy, comical little personality.  I just love this stage he's in and the teasing that he does.  He really is a funny kid and we are convinced that he will some day be nominated the class clown.

Terrible two's for Luke have been hard for all of us.  We're still rolling with the punches but man can this kid throw a fit if he doesn't get his own way.  Luke is very stubborn and very opinionated and what he wants he wants now.  If that doesn't happen for him then he kicks his boots off at us, drops to the floor and screams a mighty fit.  Most of the time we try to just laugh it off and deal because it seems to happen so much but sometimes it really irritates us and Luke gets in trouble, which does no good for anyone because it makes the fit intensify.  Pretty much Luke wins, always.  He's way more stubborn than the adults raising him ha ha.

Louie is Daddy and Bampa Terry's biggest fan.  He follows them around like their own shadows do.  He thinks they're the greatest and doesn't like to share, at all.  Poor Tyke is always getting shoved out so Luke can snuggle Daddy or sit on Bampa's lap.  He's a character!

Luke LOVES bath time, especially with bubbles.  The problem with bubble baths though is Luke likes to eat them and drink the water, both gross.  He thinks it's great, Mommy doesn't.  Luke likes bathing and showering with big brother and they have a grand time making water messes for us to clean up.  

Luke shows zero interest in potty training.  We talk to him about it daily but he doesn't want to go.  He will pee in the toilet before bath time almost every night but that's it.  I fear he might be harder than Tyke was but we're just going with the flow for now.  We'll talk it up and hopefully someday he'll care to listen.

Luke is a fan of cereal, with milk, now!  It has been so nice to be able to pour him a bowl of cereal for breakfasts.  He loves it!  It's only slightly messy for him but does pretty good.  Luke loves food and tries everything at least twice.  He is starting to like "dipper" for his chicken nuggets and meats.  Luke is a HUGE meat eater!  It is by far his favorite food.  It doesn't matter what kind of meat it is, he can never get enough.  I think maybe his favorite meal is bratwurst, corn on the cob and cottage cheese.  He devours it, sometimes even eating two brats!  It's amazing to see a two year old eat such a manly meal like that.  Way to go Bubba!!

Luke is completely out of size 2T clothes which is no surprise with the way he is eating and growing.  Some 3T clothing is even starting to fit a little snug.  Lu is still in a size 6 diaper and will be until the day he decides to be a big boy.  We bought him pull ups but they were only cool for like a day and even then he still peed in them and not the toilet.  Some day....  I'm not sure what size of shoe Luke is.  Is that bad?  He wear hand me down cowboy boots that are a size 10 1/2 which I know are way too big but he loves them and refuses to wear gym shoes and I'm not too keen on the idea of buying new boots, they're expensive!!

And that concludes Luke's monthly update.  We love our big brown eyed boy so much, temper tantrums, teasing and all.  He is honestly a little sweetheart, and a monster, and a jokester, and just plain fun.  Happy 28 months Bubba!
