SEVEN MONTHS!

Our little man is seven months old!

Yes, we know.... he looks an awful lot like his sister. Same cheeks, little button noses, same shaped face (same as Adam's), and another pair of beautiful almond eyes.

SIX MONTHS!

Blake is six months old! A whole half a year!
At his six month check up, Blake weighed in at 18lbs 2oz and measured      .
He can sit on his own and is officially mobile. He is a crazy fast army crawler, especially when he sees a phone, ipod, or anything that is Rylie's on the ground.

FIVE MONTHS!

Our little man is five months old!!!!

Some stuff to remember about Blake's fifth month...

Blake was born with deep blue eyes. Early in his fifth month, he went to bed with blue eyes and woke up the next morning with brown eyes. For a period of about ten days, it seemed his eyes were a different color each day. It appears that they have finally settled in at a gray/hazel/ green color.

Blake started teething :-( While none of his teeth have popped through yet, they are about to. Everything goes in the mouth and he is drooling like crazy.

He is making some serious efforts at army crawling and seems to be mobile enough to get around in his crib.

Blake found his voice a while back, but now it is really in full force. He is constantly squealing and babbling. And laughing. He laughs at the funniest things- like counting. He thinks numbers are hilarious!

Blake is starting to pay more attention during stories. Curious George is still a favorite along with "Rainbow Fish."

And he loves nothing and no one more than his sister.

Four Months!

Four months old....
During his fourth month, Blake took his first international flight and traveled to Portugal. He was a total trooper and we have come up with the slogan: "Have Tatas, will travel" for Blake. As long as he is fed, he is really the easiest baby. Blake also traveled to California this month and visited with Adam's family. It was great for him to see and meet so many relatives. While in Portugal, Blake mastered the belly laugh and now giggles non stop- more often than not at Rylie's prompting. He has also become a total thumb sucker. On his four month birthday, Blake rolled from his belly to his back. At his four month check up, Blake weighs just shy of 16 pounds and was 26.5 inches long (between the 60th and 75th percentile for both height and weight.)

Three Months

Three months old...
Since last month, Blake went on his first plane trip to Florida. In Florida, he went to Disney World, met Mickey & friends, went on his first rides (ask him about the Norweigan adventure!) went to the beach and in the water for the first time. This months has been filled with lots of smiles and Blake rolled from his back to his belly in mid July. Blake also went on his first road trip, which was not very successful. Aside from us not making it to our destination, Blake hates his carseat, and unless he is sleeping, he is screaming. While away, we did take Blake to his first movie- Winnie the Pooh. And he watched every single second. Blake also visited Hershey, PA Chocolate World.  Some pictures of our little man in his third month....
