Marty the Manatee
When went to Florida for Thanksgiving, Tyler was snorkeling when he met a manatee named Marty. The started talking and they actually had a lot in common. They are both BYU Alumnus, they like kelp, and enjoy mountain biking. So we left Florida thinking we would never see our new found friend again. But to our surprise, when we returned to California Marty had moved….into our house. It was really helpful to have him around near the end of my pregnancy. After Lizette was born they hit it right off. Marty knew how hard the transition was for Lizette after living in liquid for so long and now being liquid deprived. I know what you are thinking, a manatee and a baby. Lizette and Marty don’t seem to mind that she is white and he is gray. They go almost everywhere together. They don't do some of the things Marty likes to do though. They really haven't gone mountain biking lately (Lizette is only a baby for cyring out loud). A couple weeks ago they went to Venice Beach and took some pictures in a photo booth. Those two crazy animals. Marty is truly a part of our family.

Marty really looks like he is a part of the family. How special he must be to Lizette! LOL, isn't it nice that she has a friend?
The 3rd one down is the cutest picture ever!!! geez why can't Luke be cute like Lizette? J/K!
I heard that - 60-40!
It's because Luke is a BOY, not a Girl. We dont' want Luke to start off with being Cute...we want him to be the Tazmainia Devil like all little boys should. You don't want your boy growing up and discussing the finer details of interior design with his mom! You want him to catch frogs, and shoot toy guns, make fart noises, and belch at an early age! My son is not CUTE, he is a MONSTER, just as he should be :o) We don't call him Pukey Lukey for nothin.
