Blake's First Thanksgiving

He didn't get to eat all the awesome food that his Grammy made for all of us yet, but his day is coming! He'll soon be up there taking his share of mashed potatoes.

That's right! I'm stainding up.

Blake has been pulling himself up all by himself lately. It was quite the shock one morning when we walked in his room and his little face was peering over top of the railing. He's growing up so fast!

My big sister

Blake just loves to do whatever Brooklynn is doing, even though Brooklynn gets a little frustrated with her little brother tag-along. It's cute to watch them play together.

Where's my toy?

Blake is at the point where he is always needing to be entertained, even when he's in his high chair. We keep a stash of toys handy so boredom doesn't take over.

It's Fall Picnic Time!

Blake got to go on his first big outing to the farmland this past weekend as his daddy's work had their annual fall picnic out at a farm in Moonville, South Carolina. Blake just seemed to take it all in as he sat on our little blanket. He also got to enjoy his first hayride. He was the perfect kid...never made a peep.

Mimi and Papa Time!

Mimi and Papa came down for a really quick visit as they're in the midst of getting all their plans down for moving to South Carolina. As always, they loved spending a little time with Blake and he's enjoying being with them. Soon he will have a LOT more time with both of them!

Put me on the floor!

Blake is really adjusting to being on the floor. He's not crawling yet, but he literally rolls until he hits a wall. He's starting to sit up pretty well now as long as he doesn't reach for something to his left or right. It won't be long and we'll be chasing him around the house.
