Sorry for the absence

So most of you know that we've kind of stopped posting here, uh, permanently. We have been posting videos on youtube instead, because it's just easier to do from the iPhone.

We may even get rid of the blog altogether, but I hate to lose all the entries. Does anyone know how to preserve blog content?

We're back!

Sorry for our absence! We hadn't updated our credit card info with our domain host people.

I just put some photos of our trips up on Facebook, so you can check those out!

Also, I've started a YouTube channel for Lukie! http://www.youtube.com/edbradl

You can go to this link, or if you're out, you can search for the phrase 'lukiesb' on YouTube. It's very easy for me to add videos to YouTube, so I'll likely be putting them up there more often than here.

Enjoy!

Luke and Audrey at the Pool

Eileen sent me this pic the other day when we put the kids in the pool. It's funny because you can see a bit of their personalities. Below is a pic of them from about a year ago.

Luke's 2nd Birthday

I had to quickly upload this video of Luke after opening a present from Pop-Pop and Mamma Rose.

Videos

Luke loves his bedtime routine, which includes brushing his teeth! We replaced the medicine cabinet, so I kept the old one down at Luke's level for a while.

He ran laps after the second attempt. Just unacceptable. Sometimes he gets confused and throws a basketball like a football, or a baseball like a basketball, etc. We're working on it. He's doing so well throwing, though.

Sometimes when I need to press "reset" with Luke, I do this...."Go LUKE!"

He has been doing this cute "flex" thing lately....it's at the end of this video

Just a sample

While sitting down for some toast today, here are the words that Luke said in a 5-minute span:

Ba-ball, bird, fly, toast, please (3x), break, please (7x), bird, shoul (8x), George, bird, George, bird, Wiggles, Baby, Wiggles, Baby (2x), A-do, No, pray?, cereal, ba-ball, a-do (3x), George, a-do (2x), buk (2x), a-do (5x), draw (3x), gabackaball, draw (2x), crayon (5x), haf (2x), gabackaball (3x), draw (4x), on paper (3x), gabackaball (9x!!!), yea (2x), yea George yea, out (2x), No!, No-No (4x), seat, a-do (2x), George (3x)

Translation

Ba-ball: football

gabackaball: basketball

shoul: shoulder

A-do: all done

buk: milk

haf: help

Watching Kiddos

Eileen had her baby on Monday evening.  She had a very short labor--about four hours from start to finish--and has a very entertaining birth story as a result.  We watched Audrey for a couple of days to help out, and it just happened to be the same two days that I usually watch Camera.

We were also in Charleston last weekend, so hopefully we'll get some pics of that trip up soon!
