Luke is Growing!

Luke is growing so fast. He learned how to walk on his own in October, and by December he was running full speed and saying some words. Now he can understand pretty much everything we say and has about a 30 word vocabulary in English. He's exposed to a lot of Portuguese, so by the time he turns three his Portuguese will be better than mine ever will.

Justin now owns two surf boards and a paddle for the paddle board. I have a new hobby of listening to music while running on the beach. Luke's favorite thing to do is to 'be in the sand'. I think if he had it his way we would swim in the sand instead of the water. He's grown in all of his teeth (yes, even the molars) and his beautiful blond hair sits just below his shoulders. He is such a little joy, and Justin and I are so blessed to have him in our family.
