Blake becomes more and more a big boy every day. He is saying fewer of his "gibberish" and saying more and more real words. He loves to repeat everything we say. He's such a little sponge right now just soaking everything in. He loves having conversations with Brad and I while we explain the "ways of the world". If he is throwing a fit, I can start talking to him about traffic lights or what the post office is and he stops crying and just listens intently trying to learn everything I'm saying! I love that about him. He is almost always full of smiles and full of personality. He has adapted to being a big brother better than I could have ever imagined. He loves his baby brother always giving him kisses and hugs and helping by bringing him his blanket or pacifier. He fills Brad and I's days with endless joy. His favorite word at the moment...Awesome! He is able to swing on the "big boy" swings at the park. He also is just now showing interest in what the potty is so there is some potty training getting ready to start over here. Not sure I'm looking so forward to that!
Here is a picture of him trying to play in Brady's exersaucer. He doesn't understand he doesn't really fit in his old toys anymore now that we've pulled them back out for Brady! He is holding a link of markers Brad connected for him which he thought was the coolest thing in the world! He is one silly little man!
Even though Brady has had it rough lately with the sickies, he is one smiley, happy boy! Seeing his sweet smile early in the morning really makes the no sleep thing bearable. He loves cooing and smiling and is for the post part a really easy going little boy. If he gets upset though, he gets REALLY upset. Thankfully those moments are far and few between. Brady is also super strong. Even Brady's teachers comment almost daily on how strong he is. If he is sitting in the bouncy seat he can lift up his whole body. He has rolled over from his back to his stomach twice and this past week he held his own bottle at school...with one hand! I think he's on a race to catch up to Blake so he can run around and play with him! I know I've complained a lot lately about being so run down, but these boys really do make it all worth it!
Brady's 4 month check up will be next week so hopefully he'll get a glowing report!
