Finn's hair

Not only were we blessed to have a healthy, beautiful baby boy, but we were lucky enough to have a baby with a lot of black hair for us to play with! During Finn's 11 weeks on the earth he has had many hair styles so I wanted to share them with you!

This is how he might fix his hair if he were going to Jazz Fest!


This is how he will wear it when he dresses up like Shrek for Halloween!


This is definitley how he would fix it for a very important office meeting!


This is everyday laying around the house in a basket hair!



And of course... the MOHAWK!

We hope you like Finn's hair as much as we do!

Dancing in the Bathroom

Finn really doesn't cry very much, however he gets a little grumpy in the evenings. Last night Bennett decided that since I am going back to work in 2 weeks and he will be keeping Finn 2 days a week, he should be the one to get Finn to stop crying . So after 10 minutes of inconsolable crying I walked away- it was the only thing that kept me from crying myself. After a few minutes I didn't hear crying anymore so I walked to the back of the house and this is what I found.



One thing that Finn really likes is dancing. During bath time we always play music and he loves it. Bennett took Finn to the bathroom and it worked like a charm It was the cutest thing I have ever seen. I guess there will be lots of dancing while mom is at work!

The NOLA Luke's

Hello All!

Bennett and I wanted to tell everyone about our little man! Finnegan "Finn" Patrick Luke was born Friday, September 11, 2009 at 6:23PM, 5 weeks early- to the day! The day Finn arrived we had a 2 p.m. docters appt in which we were told all was well and we were right on schedule, everything was fine. After our appt we went to the store to get something for dinner then returned home to enjoy a quiet friday evening. At 4 o'clock Finn had a different idea- while napping on the couch my water broke! Bennett was in the shop working on a changing table for the baby who had just decided to make an early entrance- the table was never finished! Finn was born 5 lbs 8 oz, 17 1/2 inches just 2 hours later and went straight to the well baby nursery, he was absolutely perfect!

In the past 10 weeks Finn has thrived beautifully! He is now 10lbs, 6 oz, 21 inches! He loves taking a bath, smiling for his daddy,getting his hair fixed by hisdaddy, having them stankin' britches changed and sleeping through Audubon Park runs!The other day he saw Bryan Batt (of Mad Men) and Christian LeBlanc (of the Young and the Restless) while sleeping during one of our morning runs.

We love Finn, he is the greatest, cutest baby and we are so blessed! We are so excited to raise him in New Orleans and are looking forward to all the good times to come!
