But maybe not quite this cute!
I realize I'm a biased mother, but I think my kid is adorable! I feel all proud inside when other people stop and smile at him. I'm like, "Yeah, I know. He's a heartbreaker."
And when people ask his name, I'm so glad to say it's Luke. (Short aside: In Utah, when I would tell people his name, they would always jump to Starwars. Here in Virginia people ask, "Like the Bible?") Anyway, I think Luke is one of the best names in the world. I just don't think he'd be as cute if his name was Fred. Or Dagwood. Or Wolfgang. But who knows? Anybody out there know a good looking Wolfgang?
And while Luke IS his name, he is actually called by other names quite often. Here are some of his nicknames.
- Lucas (Jared and his spanish!)
- Lucasito (Ditto!)
- Cachorro (It means puppy or cub)
- Chanchito (piglet)
- Woocas (Another one of Jared's)
- Lukeman
- Lukester
- Lucas Magucas (because it rhymed and, well...who really knows why?) And then look what that led to:
- Mr. Magucas
- Senor Magucas (Only Jared calls him that)
- Gucas (Only I call him that)
Still not done yet!
- Lukey (Pretty much only the Beans call him that)
- Pipsqueak
- Squeaky
- Squeaky-man
- Bug-a-boo
- Bug-a-bushka (Maybe because it sounds Russian when you say it fast?)
Poor kid! I'm surprised he can figure out his own name. I'm pretty sure he knows it's Luke.

So fun to see the photos and read the fun things you are doing. I remember the days of trying to get rid of pacifiers. Makes life difficult for a while... What a cutie Luke is. Best wishes to all of you! You are a great family!
Love you, Janice
