wore out

Yesterday we went to the pool instead of taking a nap. Blake loves the pool. Laura, Mags, Joseph, and Daniel came to swim too. Blake had so much fun, even with slightly blue lips...

Joseph and Mags came home with us. I put in a movie and went to shower. When I came back down stairs, he was passed out.

i'm 3!

We actually had a birthday party for Blake this year. After going to a friends birthday party, he was really excited for his "birthday cake" (that's what he called his birthday or party). Since he loves the water and his birthday is in June, we decided a water party would be fun. We had a pool and a sprinkler going. The weather was perfect for it, sunny and humid. We had little sandwiches, fruit, chips and "Birthday donuts" instead of birthday cake.



I think this picture of Maggie and Bradley is too funny.


The mom's hanging out in the shade.


We were laughing so hard at Lindsay Coleman spraying baby Donna with sunscreen. See how her legs shine!


Rob in Donna's towel...


Blowing out the candles...

It was a great day! Lots of friends were there to play. Blake was so excited the whole day.

week 30

It's getting closer to August!
I'm still working and doing OK, it just tires me out and I get sore from being on my feet and running around. Sometimes I have Adam massage my hip and that really helps.
I can still carry Blake and sleep on my tummy for the most part. I usually start out sleeping on my side and then wake up on my tummy.
We are still figuring out where we are going to put the baby for the first couple months. We still need to get the crib set up, the bassinet cleaned, the baby clothes and blankets washed and other random stuff together.

Blake scared the crap out of me this morning. In retrospect, I suppose it could have been worse. Since we have a train track set up in the living room, he's been going downstairs in the morning while we are sleeping. (He wakes up between 6-6:30am) Usually he plays with his trains or just lays on the couch.
This morning he came up to my room and told me that Vegas is outside. That means the little monkey opened the door, which we tell him not to do. So I get dressed and run downstairs telling him the whole time that opening the door without mom or dad is a no, no. Luckily it was easy to get the cat. Blake was able to tell me which way she went and she was only in our neighbor's flower bed. Thank goodness, that's the worst that happened. So he got a time out and I told him he did a good job of coming to tell me. I hope this wasn't confusing for him to understand.
Now I'm not going to be able to sleep.

randomness

I have had some pictures on my camera for about a month now.
Here's Blake watching a documentary on astronauts and space travel. The PlayStation Network was down for a couple weeks and he had to watch it on my computer.


Here's Blake with a cherry tomato from our garden. I think this was the one he wanted to carry around and sleep with. I finally got him to eat it and now he eats them as soon as we pick them.
