21 Months + 30 weeks

And, Luke is even closer to 2 and this baby #2 is even closer to being done.

Yikes!

• Luke is hilarious unless he's being whiny, and then he's not so funny. But the milestones now are pretty much funny things he does or says.
• He got a kitchen for Christmas and proudly tells us "I cook". He also says "Eat Dada". He loves to make a hamburger patty and stir a tomato in a pot.He is very proud of himself when we tell him that we love the meal he's cooked.
• Luke is also talking so much! He will at least attempt to repeat any words we throw at him, and I still would say he's using a new word almost every day. 
• His first complete sentence this month was "I eat cookie". Most of his other sentences are groups of words like 'dada work car' or 'no eat dog'. But I still think that's pretty good!
• We've also been able to get him to count to 3 on his own and repeat the entire ABC's. He even repeated 1-10 in Spanish one day! it was pretty funny.
• His favorite game at the moment is 'Ready, Set, Go'. He asks to play 'set, go' all the time as it means his dad while chase him around the house repeatedly trying to catch him. Luke LOVES this game.
• He's starting calling KC, khaki. I think it's a mixture of kitty cat, kiten, kace, kc because we call her one of those things many times each day. I'm wondering if he was confused about what to call her, so he just invented his own word. I guess it works.
• We've pushed the bedtime back to around 7:30/7:45. It's been pretty good so far. It's also been instrumental in him sleeping until around 7 in the morning.
• This week Luke starts MDO two days a week! He's going Tuesday to the methodist church and Friday to the lutheran church. WE couldn't get him in both days at once place, but I figure it'll be nice to see him at two different places and how they handle things, then we can choose which we prefer for next year.
• The whole reason he's going two days is so that I get more of a break and am not completely insane when #2 comes! Updates for 2 aren't as interesting, as there's not a whole lot going on, but here's something for you.
• I'm officialy 31 weeks now (I think I started this post at 30). He'll be here very quick.
• He's still very active. He's a jabber and a poker. My internal organs are going to be bruised before this kid comes out.
• He's measuring right now track. His heartbeat has been a strong 130 pretty much every time we go to the office.
• The pregnancy has been pretty uneventful except that my hips are really hurting this time around. I think it has a lot to do with carrying and maneuvering Luke around constantly. When I get a break from that, my hips feel miraculously better. Otherwise, there's not much to complain about!

Our 2013 is going to be busy! We've already started to make room for the new nursery and get that bedroom cleaned out. We're ordering a new crib and getting things in order. I've made many to-do lists for what needs to happen in the coming months. Hopefully, everything will continue to go smoothly.

*Sorry this is late and with no pics. It seems I don't have time and/or energy to do either.
