the outtakes

Here are a few outtakes from our little photo shoot on Sunday. Hope you enjoy...

"I love this paper!!!! mmm good"

I tried sticking the ultrasound on his forehead to see what he would do... Here he is trying to get it off. It's very entertaining, at least for his parents :)

"hallelujah, praise the Lord!!!!"

he almost had it...

but then he just gave up and became grumpy :)

"im gonna be a..."

BIG BROTHER!!!

That's right folks - Lugg baby #2 is on its way! I am almost 10 weeks along. I'm feeling pretty icky everyday but counting my MANY blessings! I don't feel as bad as I did with Job - BONUS! We are expecting this new little life the end of September. That's right, Job and baby #2 will be about 13.5 months apart! Life will be crazy with a little man who may not even be walking yet and a newborn but we are nothing but overjoyed! We can't wait to meet this new little blessing!

the attempt to fatten this boy up

I took Job to the doctor on Monday for his 6 month check up. He is still in the 75% for height but he dropped from 45% to 25% in weight. The doctor told me her son did the same thing and it was nothing to worry about at this point, but that we should try doing more feedings during the day. So in my attempt to fatten this boy up on milk + veggies, I of course thought of avocados. They are super good for you, easy for little ones to eat, and high in fat... So naturally, lets try it...

Job loves all food, or so we thought. When is came to the avocado, not a big fan. Here is a frame by frame of his HILARIOUS expressions. Hope you enjoy it as much as I did!!!  

first he tried to spit it out...

"I guess I will try it again"

"I hate it so much mama, I am going to gag!"

"and keep gagging"

(this picture reminds me of "Elf" when he sprays the fruit spray in his mouth) :)

"thank you for not making me eat anymore!"

I was laughing so hard by the end that Job started laughing too! He thinks he is SO FUNNY! (and he is!)

the last week or so in pictures

he loves hanging out in a big basket with all his toys in there
(and yes, clean cloth diapers)

i love my jumperoo! thanks miss mindy.

once again, love my food! thanks for feeding me daddy.

i love flying with my daddy!!!
it was 70 degrees saturday, so we spent some time outside...

he's wearing a long sleeve onsie + pants + a dress nighty + a vest - crazy mama

6 months old

How is my baby 6 months old already? It seems just like yesterday we were bringing him home from the hospital. He is such a joy! Ian and I were just saying how he is such a ham! He has a great belly laugh and smile! He is VERY verbal, lots of "dah dah dah dah", squeals, and giggles. His newest thing is shaking his head repeatedly. He thinks he's so funny!

He has also turned into quite the snuggle bug these days. I am not sure if he just isn't feeling %100 or if he just really loves me. He has even fallen asleep on me a few times this week. SO SWEET!

We love our little man and can't wait to see how the Lord is going to use this little joy!

bonus shot! 

a little behind

I haven't posted in a few days so here are a few pictures to show you what we have been up to.

only semi-good picture of us! love my little man

wait for it,,,

wait for it...

grumpy pants!!!!!

online class

Job and I have been enjoying watching Dr. Bookman with Ian. We get 3 hours of Bookman every week for the next 16 weeks. This picture is a little blurry but it was just too cute.

I love Dr. Bookman.

ouch.

Ian burned his finger yesterday at work on hot steel. The proof is in the pudding.

let the games begin

So this week at the Luggs, we are back into the full swing of seminary. Ian has class Monday & Wednesday nights and he is also taking an online class, which means, watching 3 hours of Doug Bookman another night of the week. (at least we REALLY like Doug Bookman) I think we are going to try Tuesday nights. So far I am liking the online class because that's one more night he is here with us. And who won't like taking a class in sweatpants while eating freshly bakeed cookies? Beats a tie and no cookies.

Last night Job was getting tired while we were trying to watch the DVD so he had some block time on the floor, and then some naked block time. :) Good times were had at the Lugg household last night.

look at that concentration 

so serious  

i love my blocks from Aunt Charissa + Uncle Randy

just too funny... 

This Friday night we have Ian's convocation. That's just a fancy word for "let the games begin." We are excited for another semester to be underway but could also use some prayer. It's always a challenge to find time to do homework and study amidst work, family time, class, Bible study on Thursday nights, youth events some Friday nights, and then just the day to day things that need to happen, like sleep and fixing the car window that broke for the 3rd time this year. :) 

All that to say, we are very excited for another semester here in NC.

Some bonus pictures... because lets be honest, the pictures are the only reason anyone comes to this blog and I don't blame you....

"hi grandma" (ian + i laughed out loud at this picture)
