Luke caught a fish!

Luke went fishing and caught a catfish.
What an outdoorsman! His appreciation for nature is evident on his face.

Well, I wouldn't want this thing near me, either.

Yay, Luke!

Cousins!

Luke got to spend some time with his cousins from Chicago, Annie and John!
He and Annie are really good friends.

She looks out for him and enjoys playing with him.

They also celebrated John's birthday. Look at that Spidey-Man cake!

Luke was wiped out from so much partying.

Flashback: May

Luke is still in St. Louis right now,

but here are some pictures from before his trip
that I have just gotten around to posting.

Had to get a haircut before the trip, to beat the St. Louis heat.

We went to the Multnomah Country Fair and rode the rides, including a pony ride!

Playing at the park with Dad.

Then he went to St. Louis with Dad.

And here he is just landed at Lambert Airport.

Look at the smile on his face.

He is thinking of all the spoiling he is going to get from Grandma and Grandpa.

Here he is with Great Grandpa Siorek.

Here are some more pics from the last few days.
He is a very busy boy whenever he visits Grandma and Grandpa!

St. Johns Parade

Last weekend was the St. Johns parade, right in our own neighborhood. It is a fun, quintessential Portland event. It was the first time Luke had really seen and appreciated a parade. He loved the firetrucks, cars, horses and marching bands.

Keeping the Trains Running on Time

Luke has a great train set in the basement of our house. I was actually really impressed with this layout that Matt made, so I had to take pictures. Luke has loved trains since he was only a few month old.

Luke in the Park

We take Luke to a lot of different parks.
Here are some pictures from different times in different parks.

Running the bases at Columbia Park.

Riding the carousel at Jantzen Beach.
