Name: Lucas Hersch Pingle
Mommy & Daddy: Destany and Jim
Born: July 31, 2004 at Dunn Memorial Hospital
I weighed 8 lbs., 3.6 ozs., and was 21 3/4 inches long

My baby sitter is Christina, but we all call her Nina. I also stay one day a week with my Mamaw. She also watches my cousins Dexter and Gracie!

My best friends: Dexter and Gracie (cousins); Taylor, Luke, Katlynn, Jaelynn and Julie (daycare); Hannah and Joshua (family friends). I make new friends everywhere I go, too. I'm very personable!

Baby contest wins: 1st place at the 2005 Indian Summer Festival Baby Contest (13-18 months); 1st runner-up at the 2005 Orange County 4-H Baby Contest (8-11 months) and the 2006 Orange County 4-H Baby Contest (20-24 months). At the 2005 Orange County 4-H Baby Contest, I also claimed a win in the 10-12 months category of the Diaper Derby - that means I crawled the fastest from one side of the mat to the other. Mommy held me at one end, and Daddy, stationed at the other end, flashed my pacifier, which I call "bubble," at me. Of course I was fastest!
