A big week for Blake!

Unfortunately everytime Tommy runs up for a photo he has a dirty face, it isn't always that way, I swear!!! :)
We took Blake's jump-a-roo out this weekend too. He really likes it and is very interested in the toys!
He grabs at all the animals and lights.


Tommy wanted a turn too.


He doesn't quite understand that he is too big or maybe he doesn't care!



Chewing on his hands, something he does very often!


Blake also is getting fed sweet potatoes! He is really enjoying them and getting pretty good at being spoon fed!



Happy boy!

Blake is 4 months old!!!

I can't believe how fast the time goes! Blake is already 4 months old! He is rolling all around and creeping a ton too! Nothing is safe anymore! He has gotten really good at putting his own nuk in and grabbing his toys and sticking them in his mouth. He loves playing with his toes. He is very strong and lifts his head up very high when he is on his belly. He also gets into the "downward facing dog" position and pushes himself around with his feet. When he is tired he cuddles with the many cuddly blankie animals we have. He loves to watch his brother and laughs at him quite often! He is a very happy baby and loves it when we talk to him. He wants to be sitting up or standing so he is getting spoiled by being held all the time. We are very lucky to have our sweet baby boy!



Got my toes!




Tommy's "Cheese" makes him look a little angry!

Brent & Traci's Wedding

Last weekend we headed down to Luverne for Brent & Traci's wedding. We had a great time with the Potvin family and seeing everyone. It has been a few years since the last wedding so it was fun to celebrate. It is definitely more work traveling a long distance with two kids instead of one!
