Still hates snow

Aaron had to go to Utah this past weekend for some recruiting, so Blake and I joined him. Aaron went skiing one day, so Blake and I went to pick him up from skiing, since Blake isn't able to ski very well yet. I think it will be a long time before Blake even wants to try to ski because skiing requires being in the snow, and as you can see, he hates the snow. It is impossible to get him to smile when he is in the snow.

While Aaron was working, Blake and I were able to hang out with Aaron's brother, Adam, and the Mrs. plus the chill little Mia. Thanks for letting Blake destroy, oh I mean, discover all the fun things at your house. Just wait, that will be Mia in a couple of months.

10 Months Old

Believe it or not, Blake turns 10 months old tomorrow. Here are some things that he does now:
-Says mama and dada (dada did come first)
-Also says up, which isn't surprising since he always wants to be up at our level to see what is going on (must be tough being short)
-Waves with both hands, at the same time (to make sure you see him waving?) He loves to wave at the cars we pass on our walks
-Lets us know when the timer goes off, we pass a dog, the phone rings, etc
-Dances (we've tried to get it on video, but he stops dancing once we start filming)
-Loves to feed himself and is pretty successful
-Crawls up the stairs

The Joys of Electronics

Aaron just built a HTPC and now, more than ever, Blake has had the urge to type away on the keyboard. Luckily we have a ton of extra computer supplies, so Blake now has his own keyboard that he can type on while we type on ours.


Blake has learned how to use a calculator too. He doesn't believe in having it turned the correct direction though.
