Luke feeds himself

The night before Luke turned 9 months old, he decided it was time to feed himself! He took the bowl and just started going to town.

The way I see it, a messy baby will turn into a great independent eater. Someday. Right now, he's just funny to watch.

Bathtime!

Luke loves bathtime! He doesn't mind the soap and doesn't get too mad about water on his face, as long as he has toys to play with and chew on.  He also really likes splashing around in the water and getting squirted with toys, too.

His hair is getting long enough to soap up into a kewpie doll 'do. I think there's some biological compulsion to do this to your kids at a certain age.

Oh look, you can almost see his tooth!
