Suburban Obsession

Luke is IN LOVE with Suburbans! Grandpa Dave and Grandma Dixie have one and Luke thinks it is the greatest thing in the world. He loves to ride in it, to play in it, sit in it, whatever. We're not really sure why...if it's that he's up high and he can see out the windows, if it's that it's big and a lot of people can fit in it, because it's big and cool like a truck, or what, my guess is it's a combination of all of the above. It's not only Cory's parents Suburban, if we see a Suburban while driving he'll yell out "Burban!" (that's how he says it). When he draws pictures, it's always of a "Burban". And when he says his prayers at night...can you guess the first thing that he says he's thankful for? "Burban". One day a couple weeks ago when he was still taking naps when he woke up I asked him what he thinks about when he sleeps (trying to see if he has dreams...I'm always curious about that). His reply without even hesitating was "Toot Toot (Thomas), Burban". I don't know if he knew exactly what I was asking but I do know that the Burban, along with Thomas the Tank Engine, is on his mind a lot! A lot of the times I tell him we are going somewhere he says "Burban?" And I have to say, "No Luke, we don't have a Burban, we have to ride in our car today." Disappointment every time! Maybe someday we will have one and Luke's dream of being a Burban owner will come true!

Here are some funny things about Luke that I have been noting to write down lately:
