Baby Luke is here!

Sabrina and Mark Saltarelli welcomed Luke on January 15, 2013 and he is super adorable.  Greyson, Alexis and I drove out to Port Colborne to visit while Luke's Grandma Lucy was there too.
 
 
These are the toys that Greyson picked out for Luke - a hippo and a dinosaur straight from the ROM


This was a gift for Luke from his Nonna and Nonno Saltarelli - it's a bear that plays peekaboo with a blanket attached to it's hands and says things like "peek aboo" and "Hi sweetheart", it is soo cute and Greyson thought it was the best thing ever.

 
Ohhhh sleeping babies....


Sabrina said they dressed Luke up in his best clothes for Alexis - already trying to impress her I guess.



All of the sudden Alexis seems like a giant!

DINOSAURS at the ROM!!!

We took a family trip to the ROM and it was a HUGE success.  I was thinking that he might be a little afraid of the dinosaurs, but not at all!  Every new thing he saw got a "LOOK AT THIS ONE GUYS, IT'S SOOOO BIG!"  It was so much fun to watch him go crazy at everything he saw.  He did some fossil digging at the discovery centre and really liked looking at all the animals, reptiles and bugs as well.  Then we stopped at the Rain Forest Cafe in Yorkville Mall on the way home for supper.  I thought this would be an amazing time for him - however the life size, animated gorillas that they sat us right beside were terrifying to him - like he was absolutely freaking out the first time they "came alive".  So it was pretty awesome that the came to life every 15 mins and when it coincided with the thunder storm it was just magical (sarcasm).  I thought we were going to have to leave, but he learned to live with it and we were able to distract him enough to get through dinner and leave the restaurant on a positive note - success.

"WOW" "Look at my tower momma!"



Chloe and Greyson - the dynamic duo!

This is my friend Marie's daugher Chloe, we met when we were both pregnant with Alexis and Olivia at a toddler program in Woodstock.  Greyson and Chloe are about 2.5 weeks a part and Alexis and Olivia are 6 weeks a part. 




 
Here is one with Olivia - Marie likes to joke that Olivia is going to steal her big sister's boyfriend away from her when they are older (Greyson would be the future boyfriend in this scenario).  Olivia is a big fan of her buddy Greyson.

Hanging out...

 
Lexi likes to be as close to the ceiling as possible, and Greyson thinks it's hilarious!




 
 
 Lexi and Thomas are generally attached at the hip when she's on the floor playing
 
 
 Note Thomas' tail around her neck
