I'm hopeful. The last one who had Tracy in a dither was Holly, and she had just produced Luke's new bouncing baby boy so how could Tracy compete? Well we know she did, which lead to the first uttering of 'I'm not leaving you for anyone'. Since then LuNacy has been happier than ever and MY hope is that when Skye does make an appearance, rather than worry for her marriage, Tracy rips Skye a new one for taking Luke out of the hospital in a weakened condition. That has never been addressed and IMO would be much more interesting to watch (also shove another handful of whatever it is down the hardliners throats who think Tracy is a place keeper).

I'll PM then.

I really hope you're right, Halee... and I think if I was a betting person I'd go with that. Immediately when one of Luke's ex's comes back the assumption is that LuNacy will be threatened and Luke will turn on Tracy in a NY minute (mostly perpetuated by the LnL hardliners, of course). But I'm really hoping this time will be different and if he does look like he's paying court to Skye, it's with an agenda in mind that ultimately helps Tracy. This whole Luke-looks-Tracy-sours theme has GOT to end. Considering she was laughing about the attention he paid to "Ms. Busty", I'm hoping that corner has been turned.

That would make sense - he takes about a week or two every spring anyway. Funny - did you get my email?

I agree with you about Skye and beefing up the Q's. I think LuNacy is about as safe as they come, though. Luke passed over Skye for Tracy once already, and that was before he fell in love with Tracy. Now Skye wouldn't stand a chance. I love the bit about Tracy trying to convince herself - she's got her own demons around this and I'm wondering if Guza is going to bring any of those out to play. You also might be right, Hooked, Luke might very well be out of town because he would most definitely be with Tracy at the PCPD to bail out Ethan. As soon as I saw he teal jacket I thought of everyone here. LOL.... just remember it's JANE'S favourite, okay? Hey Baby Girl, I've been wondering about you. How are things?

That's okay.... Luke is needed at home.

It was actually interesting, Hooked. Edward called LUKE to talk to Tracy, and all we heard was her part of the conversation. Alice was doing something and either stuff was being thrown or she was destroying it by her actions. At any rate Tracy had to get home to deal with it. It seemed arbitrary but I'm sure it wasn't: If Tracy had been there Kristina wouldn't have gotten to the bar thus setting up things with Ethan and I don't know what chaos the Q house will be in, but Skye/Maya are expected shortly and as you said, Alice is a juror so that's going rob Edward of his prized servant. The Spencers have been really happy for some time, even getting through Niz/LnL2 and Lante without much problem, but Ethan's legal problems, Maya and Skye will pull them in other directions and include the Q part of the Spencermaines. Lets just hope Dillon is part of that. Yeah, I think it's more likely that Skye will leave with her tail between her legs than Tracy will have reason to go postal.

yes, this past year has been quite a journey for Star and her family. Cute little gaffer, for sure. GTQ, I'm wondering how this will play out precisely because so much is happening in the Spencermaine family. I can't help feeling it's going to be a lot different than we suspect at the moment. It's too easy to do the Tracy-is-jealous thing without more to the story. Skye will be back for a reason, and she'll leave without what she's looking for. So somewhere in there she's going to be stopped. I hope (fingers crossed and all) that Luke gets wise and stops Skye from taking anything that should belong to Tracy. He does that for her without needing to be asked - that's how Luke is Tracy's hero.

Just got this through email... Colin is 10 months old today! He celebrated the day by turning over from his tummy to his back for the very first time. And then proceeded to do it over and over again just to prove he could. He seems to be more prevalent to roll to his left than his right but he did roll to his left at least once. Colin was 11 lbs. 8 ozs. as of Tuesday and just continues to get bigger as we go. He started eating rice cereal along with his formula yesterday, and we will introduce fruits in 4 weeks followed by vegetables after that. His pediatrician is very pleased with his progress, especially after watching Colin just try and grab his coat most of his visit there Monday afternoon. The biggest thing we're working on now is motor skills and getting used to new sensations. He used to be iffy about his bouncy seat but he just loves it now. He still hates tummy time, but as today's milestone shows, it's definitely necessary. As he gains weight, he gains more motor skills so now it's just a question of fattening him up. As for his respiratory issues, we've now weaned him off his oxygen during the daytime and he only uses it at night when he goes to sleep. When he does use it, he's on 1/16th of a liter of O2 until he gets into a deep, deep sleep. When that happens, he'll sometimes drop his sats so we have to crank him back up to 1/8th liter, but that's becoming a rare event. Once he's off the O2 for good, he still has surgery pending for his hernias, but that will probably be closer to his birthday in May. We received his monthly assessment from Alabama Early Intervention today and he's right where he needs to be or ahead on his cognitive, emotional and social skills. I couldn't be prouder of him - he's definitely our miracle child, and we are so, so lucky to have him here. For anyone who is interested in supporting the March of Dimes, I am walking in the March For Babies walk on April 24 here in Mobile. If you would like to sponsor me in honor of Colin, please feel free to check out my personal page on the March for Babies website. We hope to raise lots of money to save the lives of babies like Colin.

From what I've gathered GTQ, Skye's appearance is to be very short and start more Q fighting - specifically about Tracy and Edward either wanting to give ELQ to Skye or Skye wanting ELQ for herself. Spoilers differ on that one. Lila Rae is NOT supposed to be coming, so that's pretty good evidence that Skye won't be around long. Skye is also supposed to be looking up old flames Luke and Jax, which po's Tracy and Carly. The finer details have not been free in coming so who knows how it will actually play out. All we know from the past is A: Luke flirts with everyone, and Skye likes rubbing Tracy's nose in it, and B: Luke always gets ELQ stuff for Tracy in the end. As for SC - I hope "needed elsewhere" falls in like with Guza wanting Edward to "call other Q's home to meet Maya". Dillon is a perfect addition and the only child who can pass on the Quartermaine name. Thus to rebuild the Q's (as Guza also says he wants to do) Dillon is needed. LuNacy is really happy now, so this will go one of two ways - Team LuNacy or Angst. In the past we've had both so it's too hard to call. Of course negative voices (aka LnL hardliners) are convinced Tracy is going to be tossed so Luke can play with Skye, but I have my doubts.

Spoilers said "Luke and Tracy stand by their own. I have no doubt Tracy is firmly behind Ethan. BTW we have had a follow-up from yesterday.

I hope it picks up again tomorrow. The pictures of Ethan in his suit hasn't been played yet, so that's three times this week we can look forward to seeing her.

Actually it was two kisses - both initiated by Tracy. And she was smiling, happy and agreed that she knew it was so when Luke said she was his "only squeeze". Very sweet. And really watch the TraLu scene carefully. I missed it the first few times, but upon further viewing when Lulu asks Tracy about Luke giving her stability, Lulu is smiling as she hears about how much Tracy loves her father. I know people often complain that Tracy props Lulu, but in all seriousness Lulu is the biggest LuNacy proper we've got.

TL... LOVE the banner... Another LuNacy day folks. Very cute - very happy. Tracy teasing Luke about looking at Ethan's new date, and Luke says she's his only squeeze. She knows that, is her reply. Nice to hear that established yet again.

Yup, let's just hope it's as obvious to TPTB as it is to us. Get rid of the dead weight (paging Dr. Matt) and lets gets someone in there who's got real connections with a whole lot of people.

Yup, on SOC the thread wanting him back started about half an hour before SC confirmed it... If Guza is serious about rebuilding the Q's, Dillon QUARTERMAINE is someone to have at home.

Oh it was all in fun, Lainey. Tracy was needling Luke the entire time and he was falling for it. She knows darn well it's not about the money as does he, but it's now become an in-joke between them. I do that kind of thing all the time. I challenge my husband: if two buildings were on fire, one had me asleep and one had a book store/coffee shop, which would you rush in to? Then one day we were in Guelph and found a building that had a book store, cafe, independent movie theatre and bistro, so now that's the store I reference. He takes his time thinking about it. Those outside might think that's horrid, but to us it's something sweet and playful. I thought that part very true to r/l. I agree with you about the kiss though, it could have been more. Why JE does that lean-back thing I don't know, but that's the second time she's pulled herself out of his space to deliver a line when TG's obviously going in for the kill.

Fabulous scenes today - and so, so funny. Tracy was playing Luke like a fiddle and he was falling for it. There was near panic at the thought she'd divorce him - for his son no less. And that was a great line at the end. Tracy's response was 'That's the smartest thing you've said in a very long time". And their song... I've missed it. Agreed about the best LuNacy, Hooked. I've already watched it a few times. When Luke finally gives he says "alright Honey, you win" or something like that. I don't recall him calling her Honey before - if so certainly not often.

Guza said Luke has "needs", which of course was instantly interpreted as sexual in the anti-LuNacy camp. But what if "needs" and asking Skye for a favour is all about the kids, namely Ethan. Who knows what Luke can ask Skye to do, and what Skye is capable of. The Jax/Luke thing and po-ing Tracy/Carly would take Skye about a minute flat with time to spare, so I think for this effort it's not going to be about interrupting either relationship - just Skye being her trouble-making self. Luke asking for Skye's help with the children Tracy is helping him support would ruffle Tracy's feathers enough. Then if Edward does indeed offer part or all of ELQ to Skye to have her stay - that would make Tracy wig out.

No I haven't been, Halee. I was a huge shipper of Laura/Adama and without Laura I wasn't really interested (add to the fact I'm trying not to get sucked into another series). Worth the look, eh? Thanks for the bigger pics, Hooked. Nice to see her in so many. Nex, the second last day Tracy was on was last Tuesday, I believe. It was the 12,00th episode and she was lecturing Lulu and left angry at Luke (from the mediapics obviously they've gotten past that squabble). And either last Friday or this past Monday I think, telling Ethan to seriously think what he'd be doing to himself and his father if he went with Johnny into mob-land. I don't think it was as far back as last Thursday, certainly not last Wednesday or this past Tuesday. Confused yet? I've got mixed feelings about Skye returning. Do we know what she'll be doing and when we can see the last of her? If Luke does focus on her I hope it's because of an agenda and not because he's bored.

Luke doesn't have relationship needs, he's only in need of someone to see things for his kids from his POV. Skye isn't going to be around very long so I wouldn't worry about it.

I'm around. I just can't get the LF on Safari on my new Mac, so I have to make an effort to get to Firefox. Sometimes I don't bother, but you're not alone in the Tracy/LuNacy universe, Hooked. Cool about that interview. I wish Michael could get the Diva herself on an interview. THAT would be amazing. Have a LuNacy fan top 100 or something. So, new opening... Tracy is where she belongs and everyone is raving about how gorgeous she is. Best picture on the damn thing. She was on the 12,000th episode but only Jason was of the Unholy Trinity, so I'm content with that. Loved Mama Bear, and really felt for her with her frustration at Luke's attitude. It's got to drive her crazy that he agrees with her behind closed doors but in public he keeps his "neutrality" in high gear. I'm hoping for a follow-up between those two soon. They are too happy and 'together' to let this cause strife. Maybe Tracy will go see Dante next. I really enjoy JE and DZ together and can't wait to see more. As for my business, Funny... we've FINALLY gotten snow, but it was wet snow and now the cold/moisture combined weather has awakened my Fibromyalgia. I took some muscle relaxants a while ago and my teeth feel fuzzy. I am in my nice warm bed, typing and listening to my daughter in one room with a movie and my sons in another playing Wii. Intellectually I hate how much kids are plugged in, but on a practical level I'm loving the electronic babysitters these days.

This would be hilarious! It would totally get rid of the Alchazar problem as well. Tracy hasn't been seen a whole lot, but when she has it's been significant moments and she's looking great. She did make the spoilers for next week talking to Lulu. Rumours have Lulu getting shot, so I don't know what that's all about.

True. But we've know for years that the best LuNacy is never spoiled or even hinted at. They were, and have been for some time, a very together couple. I liked that Luke walked in with his kids (Tracy getting there just before obviously) but left with Tracy and the Q's. That's his family - all of them. Even his two exchanges with Carly showed familial affection. Funny I think you're right about the PDAs. Tracy is not comfortable with any positive attention in front of anyone but the kids. Having arms around her is a big step. But like Sam said the other year, ANYONE with eyes to see can see that Luke adores Tracy and she adores him.

For Karaoke - no, Tracy just smiled and wrapped her arms around his neck as they began to dance. I think Luke also kissed her cheek/hair/neck/something. Of the two he's definitely the more openly affectionate. Week of 8th - apparently LuNacy is supposed to be around with Lucky on the Valentines Day episode on Friday the 12th. Today, LuNacy has lines! Luke comments that they got through something without someone being shot (LOL), Ethan waxes poetic about the responsibility of a baby, Tracy does concur that it's a lot of work, then Luke replies that on days like today - when all his kids are together, in eyesight and safe - it's all worth it. Big smiles. Lots of LuNacy touchage.
