Okay, so my friend Angie warned me that this blogging would become addicting and she sure was right! I was dumping my pictures from earlier in the summer and I came upon these taken from a July trip to the Magic House. Above, Aunt Jackie, Uncle Steve, Jack, Nick, and Luke pose in front of the awesome sand castle. We did avoid the sand area like the plague as I didn't want 3 sandy kids traipsing around (or in my car!)
Uncle Steve was in charge of the camera on this trip and thought of this cute pic idea of each boy holding the number of his age. Jack and Nick were down with the idea, but Luke had some other thoughts! Notice Aunt Jackie fixing the number "1" for Luke and there I am replacing the cochlear implant magnet (something we do probably 100 times a day...no joke!)
Here is one of my favorite pictures of Luke that has ever been taken. We exited the "hall of mirrors" and Luke immediately turned to his right - when he heard someone playing the bells. I honestly almost broke down. For a Deaf child to turn to sound in a loud environment...amazing! We are so blessed! Once Luke got over to the bells, he LOVED playing them...especially since he got to bang them with a stick! What is it with boys and hitting things???
No trip to the Magic House would be complete without a visit to the metal ball. Aunt Jackie was obviously our only candidate as Uncle Steve, Jack, Nick and I all have short hair and Luke has strict doctor's orders not to go near one of these things as it could totally wipe out his implant, resulting in another surgery! No thank you!
This is probably one of the boys' favorite things at the Magic House (besides the fishing pond). They will stand here and put the balls on the air holes which shoots the balls into the air. Such a simple concept, but they would stay here for hours!
Uncle Steve looks a bit shady here (looking out the corner of his eyes!) but this is a perfect example of how we are currently living our lives with Luke. We simply narrate our lives, we do something, we talk about! Makes for some odd pictures, but some awesome language learning for our Luka Buka!

The faces the boys are making in the first picture with Jackie and Steve is HILARIOUS!
