Things were going pretty well:
Then things quickly changed:
Oh, maybe he just wanted some more.
Maybe not:
I think we should wait a while on the spoon feeding. Blake thinks so too.

Well, we've past the four month mark and everyone is still doing well. I haven't posted much because not much has been going on. No news is good news I guess. Some of Blake's latest developments:

My sweet bald baby will be four months old on Friday. We will visit the pediatrician on Thursday for a check-up and more shots. Until then here are some (mostly) happy shots from the past couple of weeks.
Watching TV in momma and daddy's bed
Playing possum
The obligatory baby in the laundry basket pic. Why mommy why?
I've fallen and I can't get up.
A thumb is not good enough for Blake, he needs to suck on at least 3 fingers.

Justin and I got a new computer and have been playing around with the pictures. I just wanted to see if this collage would work. These are some recent photos of Blake. More to come later.

I'm thinking maybe I should delete my previous post about Blake starting to teethe and being cranky. He was a completely different baby this weekend. He was very happy and entertained us all weekend with his sweet giggles. The weather was nice and warm which provided for plenty of photo ops. We wanted to try out the baby carrier so Saturday we took a stroll around the neighborhood. Blake loved it. He laughed every time Justin would bounce up and down. Sunday we had a fun photo shoot outside my parents house. My dad bought a tractor and of course we needed pictures. I hope the nice weather continues so we can keep taking Blake out. I know getting out of the house is one reason he was in a better mood.
I think Blake was more interested in sucking on the wheel than steering it.
Bonus pics because they're cute:

Yesterday was Blake's 3 month birthday. I can't believe how much Blake has changed in 3 short months. I'm not sure how much he weighs now but I'm guessing about 13 or 14 pounds. We don't go back to the doctor (hopefully) until he's 4 months. He's becoming such a sweet little man with a great sense of humor. He has been sleeping through the night for a few weeks now with the help of a little rice cereal before bed. He is normally very happy but lately has been showing signs of teething which has made him a bit cranky. He's so little that teething rings don't help much (can't hold them and won't fit in his mouth). Baby orajel seems to be the only thing that helps but only for a little while. I just hope he can keep sleeping through the night. That definitely makes the days more bearable.
This really is not effective at all. He just licks the water off.
At least the teething has not effected his sleeping throught the night (so far).
This is the best picture I could get on his actual 3 month birhday. He was cranky because of his gums...
and it was 6:30 in the morning.

I'm obviously not very good at blogging because it's been a month since my last update. I guess we've been too busy enjoying Blake to take time to post pictures of him. But believe me we've been taking plenty of pictures. There's not much to say except he's getting so big and really, really cute. I'll just post some of my favorite pictures from the last few weeks.
