Luk's first Easter

I made Luke his first Easter basket but the treats were more for mom and dad. His shorts and flip flops are too cute. He has just started to giggle and is starting to roll over from his back to his side. He is sucking on everything his hands, blankets, toys, and drooling like crazy.

Luke is 3 months old! Time is flying!

We just went to Luke's 3 month well visit with Dr. Conti. Luke weighs 13 lbs 8 oz and is 24 inches long. He is so cute, he is now smiling all the time. He giggles and coo's. He is just too much fun. I hate leaving him for work, but I cherish every moment that I have with him. He is now able to sit up in his bumbo. He still has all of his hair, no bald spot yet. He is constantly moving his head back and forth and rubbing, but his hair has stayed. It is now to long to stay up in a foe hawk, he is going to need his first haircut real soon.

Luke was holding his dad's ears, it was so funny, but every time I took a picture he would move his hands.

Luke on St. Patrick's Day, he had to wear some green!!

Had to take more pics in the bumbo, his faces are too funny! Check out his cowboy boot socks, a friend from church gave them to him at one of his baby showers, we LOVE them, they match all of his outfits!!

Luke at 2 months!

Luke is now 10 weeks so I am late with the post. The bottom picture was just before his baby blessing at church on march 1st, we waited so that some friends of our could bless their baby on the same day in our ward, they are from Arizona but their family is here. He did really good, no crying. I need to get some more professional pics done or get a better camera. He has started to sleep through the nights so that has been a blessing, but at night he is fussy (colichy) so I feel so bad for him. We are having so much fun with our little boy. I enjoy every second that I have with him, especially since I have had to go back to work. Luckily I have a great sister-in-law who watches him, so that makes me feel better. I know he is safe and loved. Her kids love to hold and feed him in the morning before school.

Luke at ONE month

Luke now weighs 11 lbs and is 22 inches long. Everyone can not believe the amount of hair he has. I try to give him a foe hawk, he is already going to need his first hair cut and he is only 8 weeks. Luke has been so much fun, I go back to work next Monday and am so sad to leave my son. All I can hope is that he will be sleeping through the night very soon or he will have one grouchy mom.

Newborn Photo's of Luke

We can not thank our friend Marsha enough for the beautiful newborn photos of Luke. We love them!! He is such a blessing. We had so much fun with the photo shoot. Being a mom is such a special blessing, the love you have for your child is beyond words. Thank you again Marsha for capturing these special moments of our son, I know they are only this little for a short time and every day is so special.

More Pics of Luke

Today Luke is 2 weeks old. He has already grown so much and his looks are changing. We are so blessed to have this bundle of joy in our lives. I am trying to get used to the mommy schedule of feedings every 2-3 hours and being up many times during the night. I am feeling much better since the delivery and am so happy to have our little boy at home. We love you sooooo much Luke!! I am so thankful for my husband and all his help!! Dave is so cute with our son, he is such an amazing father!!

Baby Luke's Stats!!

Baby Luke was born December 31, 2008 at 3:57 am. He weighed in at 6 lbs 13 oz and 19 inches long. Everyone thought he was going to be a lot larger, my doctor was very surprised and so were all the nurses. We are so excited he is finally here, also we just made it for a tax deduction, YES!!

Baby Luke is here!!!

A few quick pics to show the little tike, we are exhausted so we will post more in the future.

(The danger zone is blurred out ;) )

Look at that head full of hair!!


After 32 hours in labor, Megan could finally have something other than ice chips

Christmas Time!!!!

We made a small Gingerbread House... of course it included all the amenities... palm tree, bushes, walkway...

but naturally we couldn't leave out the most essentail part...... a pool with a slide

And of course the 2 ft tree.... by next year it should be three!!

Bed Rest!

NO BABY YET!! So almost two weeks ago my doctor pulled the plug on me being able to work, he placed me on bed rest due to early labor, contractions, and edema in my legs and feet! He put me on Tributaline a medication to stop my contractions, he wants me to wait until I am at least 37 weeks before having this baby,which I understand, we want his lungs to be fully developed. I go back to see my doctor on Monday, so I am hoping he will let me stop taking the medication this week since it will be my 37th week and maybe I will go into labor. I have another ultrasound on Monday also, so hopefully everything will be good. I am getting really bored being home all the time, I would rather spend it home with a new baby than by myself. I have taken a few strolls out because tv just gets to boring!!

Almost There!!!!!

A quick pic of the wifeeeee!!!!

Possible New Due Date!!

I went to see my OB on Monday for a new ultrasound, because at my last visit I was measuring over 2 1/2 weeks bigger. The ultrasound went well, our little boy is already over 4 lbs and measuring bigger. The ultrasound was giving measurements that are 3 weeks earlier than my original due date, so now we may be having a Christmas baby. The new date is December 23, 2008. I was very excited, especially now with all the lower back pain, 3 weeks earlier would be a blessing so long as the baby is healthy and ready to come out. I do not have gestational diabetes, pre-clampsia, or toxemia (thank heavens) which can cause the baby or myself to be measuring larger, so I am hoping this baby will be born this year!! I will post the recent ultrasound pics once I scan them into the computer.

On Wednesday the two offices I work for had a combined baby shower for me (and Dave). I work upstairs with Dr. Blasco's office mon-thurs doing hygiene, and one Friday a month downstairs at Dr. Truman's doing ortho assist, Dave also works for Dr. Truman. They did an amazing job. The food was delicious, the company was great, and we can not thank them enough for the wonderful gifts they gave us. We were so excited looking at the gifts at home, I already put together my travel system and started washing the cute clothes. Thank you all for your kindness and love!!

New Look!!

I finally have sat down to learn how to design this blog. The look is so much better! I know I do not post enough, but once the baby is here there will be more. I go for anther ultrasound on November 3rd so I will post more pictures. Also I will be having a baby shower on November 8th, so if I do not have your address, please email me with it!! mlybbertlv@gmail.com. Thanks for looking!!

Ultrasound Pictures of our Baby Boy!!

Last Thursday the 14th of August we went to the doctors office for my BIG ultrasound, the one where we get to find out the sex and check out all the parts of the baby. Everything looked great. Heart beat was 154 bpm, four chamber heart, spine looked good, both our tummies were full of fluids, the ultrasound tech said it was a textbook case. Hooray!! The first picture to pop up on the screen when the ultrasound tech put the wand on my stomach was his BOY part!! You can imagine how excited we were!! Dave started texting right away to everyone! I don't think he saw much of the other photo shots until they were printed after the appointment.

The first photo, it's a boy!!
Another shot of his manhood! The next pictures are my favorite, I love baby hands and feet!! He had his hands in front of his face. I love looking at his little toes!! I can not wait to see him!!

I am finally over my morning sickness (NIGHT SICKNESS!!) and have been feeling much better. I am showing now, which makes me feel better, for a while there you just feel like you look fat. This week will put us at 20 weeks, so I guess you can say I am half way there! We are so excited and blessed, I can not thank my heavenly father enough for this opportunity. Dave has been so amazing, he is so loving, he is always rubbing my belly and it puts the biggest smile on my face!! I love him so much and know he will be an amazing father!! He is my best friend and eternal companion.

Romuel's Wedding

A close friend of ours just got married (with a little convincing). Romuel and I have been co-workers and friends for close to three years now. We go to jazz clubs, workout, play basketball, bowl, etc. This was a great day for Romuel and Kristin! They have been together for twelve years.

Us and some of the other lovely ladies from work

A quick joke

Two men went hunting.
Joe had been hunting all his life, but Steve was hunting for the first time.
Joe told Steve to sit down and not make a sound. So he did.
But when Joe got 100 yards away, he heard a scream.
Returning, Joe said "I thought I told you to be quiet!".
Steve replied "Well, I was when the snake bit me".....
"And I was when the bear attacked me....
But when the two chipmunks crawled up my pant leg and said, 'Should we eat them or take them with us,' I screamed."

Its a small world

I took a trip up to the mountains last weekend so I could recoup from city life and get my fill of nature. I enjoyed the cool breeze, the crisp mountain air, and the vibrant foliage. Naturally, I felt like I wanted to take some of this home with me, so I decided to take some snapshots of things that caught my eye. As I went along the path I was intrigued by the color of a certain tree's leaves with red stems. I climbed up a branch or two and got in position to take a picture when suddenly a large fly landed on the leaf in focus, with a peculiar little man riding it. I quickly took a picture, so I could prove that what I saw was real, and then tried to catch the large fly and small man riding it. The thought soon entered into my mind "I could make my fortune!". I could sell them to the circus!!! It took a couple minutes, but I finally succeeded in catching the little buggers. My plan would have worked, but the little man was more stink-bug than human. As soon as I had him in my grasp his defense mechanism kicked in, which was to flatulate unceasingly. After several whifs of this pungeant smell I was abliged to release him back to his native habitat and to his fly escort........ Here is proof of the incident!!!

As I continued to ponder what I saw, I couldn't help but question "Was I at a high enough of an altitude to give me altitude sickness and hallucinations..?" "Or could it have been the funny little berries I found and ate as I was on the trail?" Finally the answer popped into my head.. This was no hallucination nor dream!! This was real!!! Gal-darn it how could I be so forgetful!!! I just proved the legend of the TOOT-FAIRY!!!! The toot fairy rides his fly into your bedroom at night and releases an unmistakable odor in your bedroom. Sometimes he is so sneaky, he can even get under your bed sheets, so he can prolong his magic, and when your wife least expects she turns over in the bed and the great trapped odor is rushes into your her face, which results in immediate smack that knocks you out of your deep sleep. Yes, he has no remorse!! His main target is the elderly... at any moment, during any occasion, he is able to exert his power on them!!! He attacks them so often that they dont even realize what they have done!!! I and many other grandchildren can attest to this!!!
