29 Months Old

Bubba-Lu is 29 months old today!  He's growing like a weed both physically and personality wise.  He is so much fun to be around, even when he throws his mega fits.  

Luke loves his big brother and they get along so great for the most part.  Sometimes there are tears shed and it's usually Tyke.  Luke can hold his own and puts up a good fight for his age and size.  It's kind of funny but really not.  He's a bit of a bully and likes to sit on Tyke and make him squirm and cry for help.

Luke loves riding his bikes and is getting so good at it!  He does best on his big-wheel bikes.  He scoots along Fred Flinstone style and refuses to try the pedals out.  He loves going fast and taking sharp corners.  He wrecks frequently but is tough and it doesn't phase him.  It does however make his mamma's heart skip a beat to watch.  Luke uses his little feet to stop himself and wears the soles of his boots thin in doing so.  It's pretty entertaining to watch.

Louie loves to help out wherever he can.  His favorite is when Mommy is folding clothes.  He runs in exclaiming, "I hep ewe!" (I help you) and grabs the towels and tries to fold them.  He wads them up into a ball and hands them back to me thinking he's done.  It's pretty cute, until he grabs already folded laundry to help, then we have a problem.

Luke has a biting problem and poor cousin Jaxston is the recipient of almost all of Luke's bites.  We have tried everything to get him to quit but nothing seems to help just yet.  Poor Jaxston can be minding his own business and Luke will walk right up to him and start biting.  It's a problem and we're working to cure it.

We have been showering the boys at night lately instead of giving them baths and Luke is NOT a fan!  He hates it and cries almost the entire time he's in.  Showers are just more convenient for us right now because we're so exhausted by the end of the day.  Luke loves bubble baths but doesn't get to take many lately which makes him a bit grumpy.

Luke is starting to talk more and more and we are loving it!  It's so cute and fun to hear the new words he tries to say.  Currently he ends everything with an "ee"  For example: Mommy, Daddy, Tykee.  We used to be just mom, dad, and Tyke.  It's fun listening to his speech evolve.  His most used phrase right now is "doe home!"  He always wants to just go home no matter where we are or what we're doing.

Lu is still wearing size 3t clothing.  I'm not sure on shoe size because the boots he wears are definitely too big.  He refuses to wear anything but his boots!  Luke is still in a size 6 diaper with no sign of potty training yet.

We love our Bubba so much!  Happy 29 months kiddo!
