Lets catch up!

This is a fun new trick blake has learned...

The other day Blake was crying in the back seat because he didn't want to be in his car seat. I started patting his mouth with my hand to play with him and he stopped crying and thought it was so funny! The next morning he was sitting in the living room while I was working on a project and he was started to get fussy. While i was cleaning up he was whining/crying and he started to pat his mouth while whining and then just started making noises so he could keeping doing it. Now he does it all the time for fun!

A couple days later while in the back seat Blake's Aunt Laura was putting him in his car seat and i was in the front seat (Laura wanted to sit in back with blake because she loves to play with him). He was getting mad because he didn't want to be in his seat and he reached for me and said "mama"! It was so cute and i was so excited because that was the first time he has ever said mama. He says dada all the time, obviously we know who the favorite is:)

Yay! Blake can stand up all by him self while not holding on to anything! The first time i saw him do this i was so excited i started cheering for him and clapping. He loved the attention and kept doing it. Now he stands up where ever he is and stands for very long periods of time, never losing his balance.

Blake officially took his First step on Saturday May 22. He has taken little half steps before then and just fallen over. On Saturday he stood up and couldn't reach his cart and took two steps and stopped, but never fell over. He just stood there a little longer until he slowly lowered himself to the floor and crawled away! I was so excited! He is continuing to take more steps.

Today was so cute! Blake loves to watch Baby Einstiens. We got him a new one with a part about Bugs! I personally don't like bugs, but Blake thinks this is the best part of the whole movie and smiles whenever it comes on. Then his eyes are glued to the TV while they show all the bugs (what a little boy). Today while he was watching to Bugs Tanner looked at Blake and said "Bug". Blake looked right back at tanner and said "bug" back to him!!! I wish i could have got it on video. Blake repeated tanner a few more times then lost interest. Im not totally surprised because a couple weeks ago every time i would read him a book with a cow in it and i would say "Mooo" he would say "Moo" back to me. I though it was super cute but i can't believe he repeated and actual word!! Its crazy how fast he is growing up!
