Its has been a while since I last posted and during that time Luke had his first birthday. This year has gone by quickly. Luke has learned many things: how to eat solid foods, how to feed himself both food and bottle, how to walk/run (no crawling yet), and his favorite - how to push and shake random objects.His first birthday party was just immediate family. Luke's cousins were more excited about the opening of presents, so they helped him. Luke did like his birthday cup cake, not the frosting, but the cup cake. We are very thankful for Luke and are having more fun with him every passing day.
Because Luke likes to walk around so much Alyssa conducted an experiment with a pedometer to see how many steps he takes during the day (this was done around 11 months old). The picture to the left shows his pedometer attached to his waist. He kept the pedometer on for 8 waking hours - and during that time took 8,000 steps, all inside our house. The next day it was repeated for 3 hours and he had over 3,ooo steps. Conclusion: He really, really likes to keep busy by walking around and exploring.

Go Luke Go!! I love your step tracking experiment, Alyssa, and am really impressed with his number of steps. He must be eating like a horse to stay energized for his pedestrian adventures.
