And, hopefully, all of my other faithful readers haven't given up on me yet!. My goodness, where on earth does the time go. Somewhere in the midst of an ear infection, work, a visit with Grandma and Paw Paw, work, a visit with Grandma Bucciero, work, a bathroom remodel..(and did I mention work?), time has just slipped away again! Luke has been doing just awesome these days. Somehow, he's managed to turn 20-months....it's going so fast! The words are coming more readily these days and he's less frustrated when we don't understand what he wants, so that's a good thing. He loves his new therapist, getting all excited when he sees her standing at the front door and then rushing to sit on the family room floor to see what toys she's brought with her. He's an eager learner with her, and in 4 sessions, we've already seen a great deal of progress. He's still doing really well in day care, and the weather has cooperated for some great outdoor play.
So yes, with all we have going on, why not add DIY home improvement? Well, our powder room was in major need of a facelift, so we've taken everything out except the floor. The demo and painting have gone very well thus far (except for the thick layer of dust on everything in my house from the drywall sanding), and then next weekend, we hope to have enough time during naps and after bedtime to install the new toilet and sink. We'll see how that goes! Here's Luke getting in on the action:
Some other cute pictures of the Lukeman...he's in a phase of trying to put his own socks and pants on. Today, since neither was available for play, I guess his foam letters were the next best thing. And yes, he walked around like this for a while.
One of my recent favorites. Mike's already training the sous chef. Luke won't stay still for much, but give him a box to stand on cooking with Daddy, and he's happy for an hour.

Hooray!!!! A new post. We check multiple times a day - each time the anticipation of finding something to catch us up with your family - dashed to smithereens - THEN on 9-20-09 - a post, an actual post. Thanks. We enjoyed getting caught up. We'll keep checking. You post when time allows :)
Yay!! I've been checking often too for any new posts! So good to read your update. The girls will love seeing Pinochle again. :) LOVE the foam letter fashion!!
Hope you got my phone message on Friday. I'll try you again soon, if you don't catch me first.
Love to you all!!!

Thanks for Pinochle's picture. You are so sweet! Pino looks so cozy in that box. I can't wait to show Millan the new entries when he wakes up in the morning! It is going to be a one happy morning!
