Curious Luke

This is Luke.  He lives with his parents and his older sister Kate.  He is a good little monkey - and always very curious.

Lately, we can't help but feel like Luke is our resident little monkey.  He eats at least one banana a day - often two.  Within minutes of bringing him down to our kitchen following his early morning wake up, he is pointing and grunting at the fruit bowl for a banana and doesn't let up until he eats one.  He's gone vertical - climbing on anything and everything.  I don't have many pictures to document this because I'm usually rushing to make sure he is safe and returning him to two feet on the ground but he's climbed on toys, ledges, dishwasher, chairs and even tables.  He's extremely friendly and social.  We met a new babysitter last week and within minutes of her being here he was climbing in her lap for a hug and snuggle.  And he's very curious - always trying to figure out how things work.  Lastly, in the last few weeks we've seen him really show interest in books.

Luke, may your curiosity grow into a love of learning.  May your friendly nature continue to blossom.  And may you find a way to explore with your two feet safely on the ground.
