Luke's Latest Pictures

Luke did such a good job during his 4 month pictures. He smiled and was a real trooper. What a cute little man!

The Boys

Luke is 3 months old aready!!! He doesn't smile much, but when he does, his whole face lights up. He started giggling this week, which is so cute! He's a very mellow little dude. Jack is still into his cars, along with his dinosaurs and animals. We started saying a prayer with him each night and reading from a book of bible stories. We're also searching for a preschool for Jack for next September. The one we want is full, so please pray that a spot opens up!

Luke has found his hands and loves to stick his fingers in his mouth. He's not really sucking as much as licking.

I've been trying really hard to get a shot of Luke smiling (hard to make him smile while holding the camera) and finally captured it today!!! Bonus- I got a smile and a laugh.

Puzzle Train

Jack got a great puzzle for Christmas that has the alphabet letters on a train. Each letter has a picture of an animal. After Jack finishes the puzzle he lines up his toy animals on the puzzle pictures.

Best Friends

Today Jack told me I'm his best friend. That just melted my heart...

Superbowl Fun

We had some friends over for the Superbowl and had three little guys running around. I couldn't get all three to hold still at the same time long enough to get a picture, but here are some action shots. They were having a great time in Jack's room. With Luke and with Baby Del Vecchio (due in April), we'll have 5 little guys running around next year! Wow- how fun!

First Haircut

We love Luke's "Flock of Seagulls" hair, but it really is time for a haircut. When we look back at pictures of Jack's mohawk we realize that we waited way to long to cut it and it ended up looking like a bad combover. So...we won't do the same thing to Luke. But before he had his haircut we had to take some pictures. There was no primping done- the pictures below are of Luke's natural hair. It defies gravity...
And now for the haircut...

Luke sat very still but was tired and ready for a nap.

Daddy helped keep Luke's head straight so that Auntie didn't take off an ear.

Ahhh...how handsome. And now it's time for a nap!

Me and Jack had haircuts too!

Update on the Gisler Boys

Here's a little update on Jack and Luke...

Jack has a new love of Disney's Cars movie. It's his "favorite" (although, everything seems to be his favorite lately) and he wants to watch the movie daily. He acts out the scenes with his toy cars (see picture below- he's acting out the scene where Mater and Lighting scare the cow tractors). He has realized that there is little he can't reach if he uses his stepstool, so he now carts it all around the house to turn on lights, see above counters, reach the sink, etc. If he's in a hurry, he doesn't bother with the stepstool since any old box will do.
Luke is enjoying his bouncy chair. He is very amused by the kissing fish and starfish. He has pretty good head control, so Nick put him into the Bumbo. Truthfully, Luke is more ready for this than I am. He's growing up so fast!!! At his 2 month exam he weighed in at 11 pounds, 11 oz. and 23 inches. He's in the 50th percentile for both height and weight. This is new territory for us, since Jack is in the 5th percentile for height and has never been on the charts for weight! Luke seems so big to us, but he's actually just a normal sized baby. He's flying through clothes sizes (some of his 0-3 month clothes are already too small) and diaper sizes (already in size 2!). Jack was in his clothes for so much longer and was in size 1 diapers for quite a few months. He's rolling from side to side, but not all the way over. He's also laughing in his sleep, which is so cute. I wonder what he's dreaming about!!
