Luke's Third Week

Gram and Great-Gram in Town

Thanks mom and gram for coming over and helping us out for a few days! Here's Luke gazing into his grandmother's eyes...

Lynn stopped by to hold Luke and drop off some yummy food (Thanks!).


We were also glad to be able to see Emily before she heads off to Nairobi.

Emily was even able to convince me to play soccer with her tonight. It was great to put the cleats on again after a long hiatus -- and we won the game! I'll be sore for the next few days.

First Day at Church

Luke enjoyed his first church experience today. Justin was preaching on contentment from Phillipians 4:8-13 and I think Luke really took it to heart. He looked very content as he slept through the entire service. He also enjoyed his first long ride in a car seat, he didn't complain at all and slept most the time.
Dad and son...

All Systems Go

Had our first doctor visit today after the hospital and got the a-ok; all his bits are in working order. It turns out that our doctor's office is so close to us that it takes longer to put Luke in the car seat than to just walk the 1 block to the office.

Our awesome chiropractor also stopped by the house to see the baby and relieve all of Natalie's sore back muscles.
Another picture of Luke for the family.
(By the way, this is the point where this blog changes focus from Natalie and Dave to Luke, Luke, and Luke with many postings, pictures, and videos of Luke doing mundane things that are exciting to us. Just a warning.)
