No more secrets.

Up until this holiday, we've been able to trust Luke with keeping a secret ... but no more! He managed to let the cat out of the bag on several occasions about Dad's surprises for Father's Day.

The Presents.
Earlier this week, we spent some time wrapping Scott's Father's Day gifts. When we were done, we neatly tucked them away in the closet to hide them there until Sunday. When Scott came home from work that evening, Luke began talking all about the "presents" and then opened the closet to show Dad where they were hidden. Good thing they were all wrapped!

The Pictures.
Another part of our surprise for Father's Day was to take some photos from the "3 of us" to give to dear ol' Dad. When we took the photos on Wednesday afternoon, Mom had to persuade Luke to cooperate a bit by explaining these pictures were for Dad from Mom, Luke, and Baby Brother. That night Luke started telling Scott all about the pictures. "Go see pictures. Now." Scott thought he wanted to look at photos in an album or stored on the computer and was a little confused when Luke wasn't interested in that. A bit later, Luke resumed talking about the pictures even more. Luke's secret-keeping skills need a little work. He had spilled the beans once again. So we ended up giving Dad this Father's Day gift a bit early ... since he'd already heard all about it anyway from the little monkey! Below is our favorite photo.
