Tub Time

If I try to put Luke in the tub without Abbie, he says "Abbie's coming! Abbie's coming!" Meaning, get Abbie in here now! If I try to put Abbie in the tub without Luke, Luke just strips down and jumps on in. Now that Abbie splashes Luke back instead of crying, those two have a grand old time. It's fun to see them play together. I can already see that Luke's going to be a good big brother. He gets Abbie a toy when we're going somewhere, he holds her drink in the car while she takes a sip, and he always wants " loves " from Abbie. I love seeing these kids grow, they're so much fun.

Elder Brent W. Jenkins

My little brother, Brent, received his mission call tonight! He will be serving in the Cambodia mission, and it also covers Vietnam. We are all so excited! He didn't get much warning, he leaves on January 9th, just under two months. I know Brent will be a humble servant of the Lord to the people of Cambodia. He is such a special young man, We love him and we are so happy for him.

GO CHARGERS!

We have some die hard Charger fans in this family.  They all looked so good in their Chargers gear, I'm sure that's why the Chargers won last night.  Luke's saying, "smile" in the picture, he so funny!

Happy Halloween!

Halloween was fun this year with our little Piglet and Buzz Lightyear! We went to a trunk or treat with cousins, Dawson and Fisher, Aunt Courtney and Grandma Sharla. Luke got the hang of it real fast, he wasn't shy about getting his candy. He held out his basket said trick or treat, a hurried thank-you and then zoomed off to the next car.

Later we walked around a few Aunt and Uncle's homes, then had dinner at Grandma and Grandpa Jenkins. Luke disappeared during dinner, so I went to find him and caught him in front of a full length mirror checking himself out. Grandpa had been watching, and said Luke had been admiring himself for quite a while.

This kid needs a helmet!

Luke got his first set of stitches, and I'm sure it won't be his last. This kid never quits moving! His cut goes right through the middle of his eyebrow. He screamed while he was getting the stitches, then when we were done he said thank you and goodbye to the Dr. and the nurses. What a polite boy. Now he likes to look in the mirror and he moves his eyebrows up and down, checking out his wound.

Luke hasn't been feeling good the last two days, so I put the movie Dumbo on for him (he loves elephants) and then next thing I know, he's cuddled up with his dumbo (compliments of Grandma Sharla) and was fast asleep.
Kids always look so angelic while they're sleeping... I love it.
