10th Month of Blake

June 16th-July15th

Blake is standing on and playing with this toy and so proud of himself!

The boys are loving the sand box and it is entertaining them for longer than I expected!

Blake is on the move and figured out how to crawl up our step so he is all over the place now!

Greg and I got a night away to go to Greg's cousins wedding.  It was fun to have adult time away from the kids.

Blake is eating big boy food so much better!  We are all so happy about that.

These are just the cutest videos.  He is laughing and talking to himself in the mirror.  I don't think he realizes its himself.

I love these naps on Mom!

He looks so big in the "beep beep" cart!

We got Blake's 9 month pictures back and got a few good ones.  He was not interested in taking pictures so he cried through most of the pictures.  I am surprised with what we got.

Grant did a great job potty training!  He finished his sticker chart and stays dries most of the time.  He has to always be reminded or told to go potty so we are hoping that gets better with time.

Grant is ready for the 4th of July!  He is so cute in his sunglasses.

Cute video of Blake smiling and Grant in big boy underwear!

Grant still loves to play "Robot Power!"

Walked in to get Blake one morning and he was sitting up waiting for me.  Looks like it is time to lower the crib so this big boy!

The bees love the spaces under our wood in our deck and keep making homes so we need Dad to kill them so we can play in the sand box outside!

We had a fun 4th of July!  We went to the West Des Moines parade on the 3rd and the Urbandale Parade on the 4th.  We got out chairs stolen at the West Des Moines parade and there was a big storm right before but it cleared up just in time.  It was very hot at the Urbandale parade but the boys had fun and Grandma and Grandpa suffered through the heat with the kids.

We went to the Stern's lake house in Panora and Grant and I got into the lake.  It was a little rocky but fun!

Our neighbor's were out of town and let us borrow the pool while they were gone.  We had our friend's over to enjoy the pool with us!

Blake is becoming a moving, wild little man but we love seeing these smiles.

Blake is so proud of himself that he can pull himself up!  One step closer to walking!

You can see how the 10 month pictures went.  I couldn't get him to sit down for a picture so these are the best I got.  He had a good month.  He is pulling himself up, his ear tubes look good, and is a on the move all over the place! He weighs 21lbs 14oz, he is 57% for height and 61% for head circumference.

Grant is on Hive Pack Hoops and it has been a frustrating season for the team. It was fun to watch Grant score a free throw though. He was so proud of himself!

I caught Claire playing in with the hot wheels cars while playing in her brother's Captain America mask. So cute!

I tried to make cinnamon sugar sourdough bread and it still didn't turn out like I thought. The kids still wouldn't eat it which was my goal. AND it was a lot of work. So fail on that part but hoping to try bagels next and I have heard they are easier and better.

Carson invited Blake to go to the pool with him and Blake had a blast (even if the picture doesn't show it!)
