Alright so he is now 13 months. With finishing up school and compiling grades it is true the second child kind of slipped into the back of my mind. ;-) Blake turned one on April 25th and had a blast eating as much cake as we would let him. He was not much into the present opening and we had to continue to bring him back to the presents as he quickly tried to slip away to find bigger and better things.
Blake is 18 pounds 6 ounces and is 29 1/4 inches long. He looks very skinny which is surprising if you watch him eat. The boy packs away the food as long as you put it in front of him. We have had to increase our food budget just to keep up with his food intake! His hair still has a reddish tint to it and his eyes have stayed that true bright blue. At his birthday, Blake showed no signs of interest in walking. His crawling is very efficient and extremely fast. However in the past week or two he has started to walk out in to the middle of the room on his own accord. I have counted about 5 or 6 steps so far.
His two favorite things to do is go outside, especially if Emmalyn is outside playing, and climb up on fireplace, climb up on the arm of the loveseat and launch himself upside down onto the loveseat. Before you shake your fingers, I do try to always be there for these acrobatic moments, however, as I said earlier he is very fast! ;-)
