Baby doll is 6 months old! At his well child check he was 18.3 pounds (50%) and 28.5 inches (90%). He is such a smiley and social baby. He loves attention. Everyone comments on how happy he is, but those of us who know him well know better! He often smiles big when he is just on the verge of a meltdown. He especially likes to get attention from Michael who can get him laughing pretty hard. The doctor said I should try to get rid of his binki at bed time because soon he will be waking up all night long crying for his binki (which is exactly what Michael did when he was 7 months old). I hate to get rid of it because he loves it so much and it is so convenient. Should I wait and see if it becomes a problem? I know for sure that if I take it away now we will have many nights of crying at bedtime ahead of us. Ugh.
Blake’s nickname is The Squirm. He just cannot sit still. He is constantly moving and twisting and kicking. He doesn’t want to miss out on anything. He is really getting into a fun stage because he is much more active and playful. Blake has just recently started to scoot around on the floor on his back and is really trying to reach for toys. He gets so mad when you take away something he is playing with!
Blake is a sweet baby, but I wouldn’t call him easy. Sometimes he drives me crazy! It’s the mother’s curse. My mom promised me that one day I would have a child just like me. I used to wake up early and she’d bring me in bed hoping for a little snuggle and snooze. Hah! Yeah right. I would climb all over her until she finally got up. Well here I am with a child who refuses to snuggle and who wants to get up at the crack of dawn. He has so much energy. I know it’s only a matter of time before he is crawling and climbing and wreaking all kinds of havoc in my home. He’ll fit in well with the other boys.

Blake is such a cute kid with his own unique personality. We love him so much and we are so
happy to have him in our family.
The other day I smashed up a banana for him to eat. It was so funny. He spit it out, gagged and shuddered. Then he refused to open his mouth again. Once again, he takes after me. I hate those things!
