Wow! Its been a while. So many things have happened. Since I last wrote. Here are some Blake highlights:
1. He SAW me. Like really looked at me and knew he was looking at me.
2. He had his first real SMILE that was not caused by gas.
3. He now responds to voices.
4. He has mastered breastfeeding. For all of you who have not been through it… it’s not as easy as it looks, and it doesn’t feel great.
5. He now loves to stand up and boy does he have strong legs.
6. He is sleeping in his crib, in his room, like a big boy!
7. He is starting to sleep for longer periods of time (max of 8 hours so far).
8. He talks now. Ahhgooo is his favourite word as of now.
9. He just started walking… no big deal! Haha kidding!
Honestly though, things just keep getting better and better! I can not believe that he is already 2 ½ months old. When people say that time goes by quickly and to enjoy them when they are young, its not a lie. Each week I wonder where the time has gone. Looking at my son I am amazed that its been over 10 weeks now since our first meeting. Do you know how many diapers that is!? A LOT!!
Next on our list of firsts: Blake’s first holiday. He is only going to Italy. Not camping in the bush, not to the cabin, not even Disney Land, the lucky kid is going to friggin Italy! Well so are we but we have had to wait a long time for this!
I will update after the trip. Keep your fingers crossed for a happy and tired baby on the plane!
