So as I'm sure I've shared with most of you...Luke enjoys spending a lot of his day aligning his toys, shoes, pantry items...just about anything he can get his hands on...with his cars or figurines, they must all be facing the same way and if one is messed up, he'll stop what he is doing to correct it. I wonder who he gets that from?? Here is some proof on what he does:

Hands On Museum
Luke and I took a day trip to a Hands On Museum in Ann Arbor. There was a preschool room that Luke loved...especially the water table. He would have stayed there all day if I would have let him. The smock did not help much...he was soaked....especially his shoes.
He's becoming such a big boy!
What a surprise...Luke lining up something!!
Luke and I went through the rest of the museum...but mostly it was stuff to advanced for him. He enjoyed looking around though.

Jeremy's Birthday
For Jeremy's birthday, I surprised him with flying lessons! He was able to take off, fly a plane and land (of course with an instrutor). Luke and I watched Jeremy take off and land which was fun. Luke loved watching the planes! ("panes"...as Luke says!). Jeremy loved it EXCEPT...he became pretty air sick which caused two things: 1.a very long car ride home and 2. this is the last time Jeremy will be piloting a plane!
Jeremy about to take off.
Getting his ear phones on...
Coming in from landing...
Our one time pilot!Luke's Birthday Part II
Off to Indy for more celebration. This party was so special because we had so many family members able to attend including Luke's great grandma and grandpa. Luke loved his party!
Here is Luke's cake. Jeremy and I did our best on it! Luke had a race car them party...Jeremy asked me why a taxi was on the cake then?? I had no answer!
Luke was a little overwhelmed with everyone singing to him. This was his only smiling picture with the cake. He LOVED eating cake!
More cars...Luke received so many nice gifts!
I'm free!!! I'm free!! Luke loves his freedom!
Grandpa Albert pulling Luke in his wagon with his balloons. One of many, many rides...Luke loves his wagon!Summer Recap Part II
Luke turned 2 on May 24th. We had two celebrations. One his birthday morning and one with extended family in Indianapolis. He loved the entire celebration and completely understood the day was all about him! He loved it!
Sorry this is sideways. Anyways, we had Luke get up before Jeremy went to work so we could all celebrate together...we started the morning with yummy cinnamon rolls. Luke thought, "what is going on??".
He loved the presents!! He uses this mower the most at Grandma and Grandpa's!
Probably Luke's favorite toy right now...anything with cars and the slide that makes the cars for "fasss", according to Luke!Summer Recap Part I
Totally have been slacking with updating our blog this summer!! I'll give some highlights! We have been having a blast enjoying the parks in the area, the pool, splash park, Luke pushing his mower around and taking very many jogs (and walks) in the jogger and the wagon. Luke loves the outside and cannot get enough of it! Here are some highlights...
For my birthday in May (my last year in my 20s!), my mom treated me to a trip to Dresden, OH to see the Longaberger basket company HQ and factory. We had so much fun. Below you'll see their HQ building...of course, a huge basket! Funniest thing ever. Supposedly, the handles are heated and move so the snow/ice do not ruin the buidling. The dark spots you see are the windows. Can you imagine going to a basket every day for work!?!? We actually went inside and it's a really nice place. Baskets everywhere...
Closer look...
The largest apple basket in the world!! I guess the first Longaberger basket was made to be an apple basket. Huge! Seriously baskets where everywhere...everything in the stores were stored in Longabergers, all trash cans, even in the cafe, the straws/napkins were stored in longabergers. Unbelievable!
Thanks mom for a great trip! We had so much fun!
