New Toy

This is a new toy we have for Blake. It's actually not new, he's just starting to like it! :) He gets that one leg going and kicks the ball all around. We're so happy he's starting to enjoy being on his back! :)

Still Working on Rolling Over



As we said before, Blake rolls over in his sleep, but he just seems to have difficulty doing it awake! lol Here are a couple pictures of him rolling over. He can get all the way over, but that arm just literally is stuck. He is so funny to watch because he burries his face first, then the legs come over, and then the belly. The whole time he tries, he grunts and makes loud noises. Too cute!

Our Christmas Tree

We decided to put up our Christmas tree tonight. I don't have the topper on yet because a friend of mine is hopefully going to make it with ribbon. Zack actually helped, and Blake sat and watched us - but he was more interested in kicking his feet and sucking on that fist! :)

Thanksgiving in Chicago

Here are a few pictures of our trip to Chicago. We had a great time visiting all of the family. Blake was such a good boy the whole time, which we were happy about that!
Zion was such a big boy the whole trip. We found ourselves very entertained by him.

This guy was amazing. Sorry the photo is the wrong way - but you can still tell what's going on. It was very neat to watch him do this. Everyone's face was hilarious while watching him.


Alexis and Sara stopped for a pose! We all had a great time.


After a long day of being held and passed around, Blake was pooped. He actually snored for most of the night! :)



This is a photo from Millineum Park. It was a pretty neat place!


Blake slept pretty much the whole time we were downtown. While he was awake he was very curious. It was cute to watch him look around - and of course the lights caught his attention!


Ava was super tired and fell asleep when we headed home!

Blake was so glad to be able to lay and strech when we got back on the train to head home! He was such a good boy!

Enjoying A Bath


Blake is enjoying his baths more and more. He used to cry the whole time, but now he's starting to splash the water everywhere and smile. When he's tired, he just likes to lay his head against the side and hang out. It's so cute! He enjoyed tonight because his daddy was watching.

Rolling Over

The last few nights we have woke up to Blake laying on his tummy, so we know that he is rolling over, we just have yet to see it. Yesterday, he finally started to show us that he can do it, but after several minutes, Zack decided to help him get over. It was cute. He's also trying to sit up constantly. In his car seat, he gets upset because he can't sit up more. I can't help but laugh when he gets mad!
Here's the start. That left arm just kept getting in the way.

Just a close up....he was smiling the whole time he was trying to roll over. Such a happy boy in the morning!!

And we finally made it over with a little help from dad!
