I want to start off with an update about Blake. I have not given an update about what Blake has been up to in a really long time. I have to say i just love my little boy. e honestly has more personality than any little boy should have! He is not even two yet and i feel like he is soo smart. Here are some things he has been doing lately:
1. Blake has been saying full sentences for a couple months now. He says ( i want one, i play in the bath, watch show, go get dressed, i want my shoes/pants/shirt/socks on, ect.) Blakes words are very clear and understandable for the most part. I love this stage because he can tell me exactly what he wants and what hurts. It makes things so much easier.
I helped Macy out by making brownies and cookies tonight and Blake really wanted to help. Wow the lighting makes him look like he has red hair!2. Blake has been very naughty with screaming at me. He screams NO, STOP IT, DONT and GIVE BACK. Yikes. When he first started doing it i was shocked. Blake has always been pretty well mannered, this little naughty streak is not so much fun. He doesnt just do it to me but he does it to other kids to. None of my punishments are working on him either so i think i need to get creative.
3. Blake is obsessed with clothes. Every article of clothing. He doesnt like to stay in his pajamas, he wants to be all dressed up. He likes to pick out his own outfits. He is very picky about what hats he wants to wear and what shoes he wants to wear. Shoes are by far his favorite. He doesnt like you take to them off either. He wears shoes pretty much starting in the morning and wont let me take them off till he goes to bed and even then it is a struggle. I think he wore a brace on his feet for so long that it is comforting to him.
Cheese face! YIKES cant help but laugh. He loves to stir!4. Blake is all about playing. This kid will play all day and night. He does like to watch his shows but when someone wants to play or i bring his toys out he is all about playing. And he plays hard. He loves to wrestle with daddy. He just jumps on him and thinks it is hilarious. He LOVE LOVE LOVES to be chased. He could play chase all day to. he goes up to everyone and says, "i get you" and then runs away waiting for them to come get him. It is getting quite tiring the more pregnant i get.
5. Blake is back in the hitting phase. He knows it is wrong to. Right after he hits he gets a really worried look on his face. Most of the time it is when he is playing, but i still have to teach him no hitting. I have not really seen him hit other kids so i am not sure that he does. It is mainly jsut me and Chance. So naughty.
Nummy mommy it what he kept saying. This was by far his favorite part!6. Blake insists on having everything he eats be put in a cup(bowl). He calls oranges apples, bowls cups, and watermelon strawberries. HAHA not matter how much i try to correct him he wont change.
7. Blake is so into music. He love to dance! He knows what a guitar, piano and drums are. We were at a friends house today and they have a keyboard, a little guitar and a bucket for a drum. Blake went crazy. He was having the time of his life. He also made up his own song it goes, " I go, i play, i go i play." I love when he sings it.
8. Blake knows most all of his animals and what they say. He is also very good about folding his arms during prayer and helping me say our nightly prayers. Occasionally he asks me to sing to him at night and i just melt as i hear him trying to sing along with me.
Dont worry he didnt eat a ton of this, just a couple licks. Man was he in heaven though. He doesnt get much sugar at our house so when he gets treats like this he thinks it is the best thing in the world.For the most part, Blake is just a really happy and fun kid. He also loves babies. I am really trying to get him used to babies and being around them. He is very protective over them. He knows he is having a baby sister. Sometimes he thinks his baby sister needs his binki, so he comes and sticks it in my belly button! HAHA. Whenever i show him his baby sisters clothes he says, "Oh cute." cute cute boy
24 weeks, so 6 months!Now on to the pregnancy update. I had my 24 week appointment on Tuesday. My blood pressure and weight are great. Unfortunately i am on my second bladder infection :( And also my little girl has decided to drop a little bit. Which for most women is not that big of a deal. But seeing as how Blake dropped all the way at 27 weeks, my doctor is a little worried. He didnt put me on bed rest but i do need to take it really easy. No exercising , hard house work and no stimulation (if you know what i mean). I am having contractions but not consistent at all. May 8 a day or so. So the contractions are not bothering me at all. They are less painful then the ones i had with Blake. They are not braxton hicks, unfortunately. He will be checking my service next appointment to make sure i am not dilating. Her heat beat was really really good and strong so i am so thankful for that.
Other than that i am feeling great. This pregnancy has gone by soooo much faster. sometimes i forget i am even pregnant. I have gained weight a little differently this time. I am gaining it in my love handles as well as my belly. Last time i was all belly, but i guess that is what i get for wanting a girl! I am always wanting to eat. Not hungry, just really wanting to eat. And this pregnancy i have definitely been snappy. I catch myself snapping at Chance all the time and i feel so bad. We are so excited for this little girl to get here. We still dont know for sure what we are going to name her but we have a few names in the works. Avery, London, Sailer, Emmerson, and Jersi. Everyday i think of more to so that is not helpful. Hopefully when i see her i will know what her name is.
