I thought this pic was hillarious.
My baby boy turned two on Saturday. We didn't really do much to celebrate because I had a wedding the day before and Eric was down in Indy. But, we had a little last minute cookie cake with just the grandparents. Then Eric and I took the kiddos to the zoo in Indy to celebrate his bday and mother's day on Sunday.
Blake is starting to talk a lot more. Most of his words are still one syllable and require translation, but he is starting to say some words with two syllables. Cars are still his favorite toys. He also likes trains, and he loves to read. A couple of weeks ago he started reading books to himself. He will sit there and babble for an hour to himself. He also loves being outside and would live out there if I let him.
Blake has also gotten a lot more lovie. For awhile there, he wouldn't give me kisses or hugs. But, in the last month, he started giving me kisses and big bear hugs around my neck that make me melt. He goes back and forth loving and fighting with Layla, but he is a good big brother.....taking her toys and her binky to her, giving her hugs and kisses, and trying to get her to crawl to him. Layla started crawling on Blake's bday. She has been scooting for a couple of weeks, but finally took off forward on Saturday.
Being a mother is such a blessing. I thank God and pray for them everyday. God Bless all you mothers out there!
