Blaise is now 2 months old! He weighs 12.8 lbs. and has grown to 23" long. He is smiling and cooing (babbling) more and more. He loves to squirm and wiggle, and is getting stronger and stronger everyday- (i.e. holding himself up on his feet, holding his head up for longer while on his belly etc). We are loving this cooler fall weather and hope to go camping soon if the rain stays away!
Blaise's favorite toy-the mobile! Mimi thought he would like one and boy was she right! His eyes become wide as saucers and he kicks and moves his little arms and legs so fast when the music starts-so exciting!
Grandpa Harold came over after work last week and watched Blaise while David and I went out-to the Y! It was weird for both of us to be out with no one in the car seat. It such a strange feeling too to do the elliptical really hard and to push myself with the weights. (Couldn't do this while I was pregnant!) Blaise and I have been enjoying the mommy and me yoga class too.
David discovered Blaise's favorite position - the football or cradle hold. He loooves it! He also loves to bounce and move. David often sings, "Blaise likes to move it, move it!"
Over Labor Day, we went out to Innsbrook where my dad's parents live. Here a shot with a few of the girl cousins-Melaina, Bri, and Kayla- and Blaise.
Great Aunt "Little" Debbie (my dad's youngest sister) and Blaise
My mom's good friend, Janet Tubessing (my sister's best friend's mom) and Pam Reed graciously threw me a baby shower-after Blaise was born! (I didn't want to register for the nursery stuff before I knew if it was a boy or girl!) It was a nice way to have friends meet Blaise and celebrate with us!
My 27th Birthday- celebrating at my parent's house with family. My mom made a delicious brisket meal and an amazing c
hocolate raspberry cheesecake that my friend Alisa from church originally made at the church shower. Yummy! It was a drizzly afternoon; Blaise enjoyed spending time with Boppa, rocking on the porch swing outside and then rocking inside, looking out the big kitchen window. He also found Boppa's fuzzy arm hairs fun to grab onto like his cousin little Natalee did.
Blaise started smiling at us a few weeks ago. It's so fun to have him look at us and give us a huge, gummy grin! I finally managed to capture one on camera.
