Blake has been Mr. Helpful lately. After he gets his diaper changed, he loves to go throw it in the trash. He also will take his dirty clothes to the laundry. This works out great, except when he gets the trash and the laundry bins mixed up!
He has really been talking a lot lately, and repeating everything. His favorite word lately is "Jody." He says it very clearly.
He got his second haircut today, we did it ourselves again. He sat very well, with the help of a few M&M's here and there!
We think the time-outs that we have given him in the last couple of months have really helped out. He rarely touches the things he's not supposed to anymore (TV, furnace switch, air purifier switch, computer, printer, etc.). He still does once in awhile, but nothing like before.
He has only been taking on average, on nap per day now. I think he has been doing this for a couple months at daycare.
Blake loves to dance. Anytime he hears music, he smiles and starts dancing. He wants nothing to do with TV or cartoons at this time, so I guess that's a good thing. Although it would sometimes be nice if he would sit quietly for 15 minutes and watch a program! But I guess you have to be careful of what you wish for!
Blake has still been eating good. Not quite the appetite that he used to have, but still doing good. He is not a picky eater at all (gets that from his mom!).
He has started climbing lately, which scares me! He can climb up on the couch, recliner, and love seat and he also can climb up onto the dining room chairs. Today he tried climbing up his toy organizer and the whole thing fell on top of him! Luckily, he didn't get hurt. Although I think it might have scared him a little!
Another interesting thing happened today. Blake walked over to me at the computer and I could smell that he had filled his pants. I asked him if he "made stinky's?" and waved my hand in front of my nose and said "P...U!" (I've never written that out before). He waved his hand in front of is nose and next thing I know he is laying spread eagle on his back, waiting for me to change his diaper. So, he's definitely becoming aware of his bodily functions, but I'm certainly not going to push the potty training at this point. Everyone that I've ever talked to says that you can't do it until they are ready, and they will let you know when they are ready! I was just surprised at how well he understood me and how he made that connection. Yet again, he continues to amaze me!

Blake sure is doing entertaining thngs. He is growing up too fast. He doesn't seem like a baby anymore. Blake is a doll.
