18 Months Old


Blake is now 18 months old, which meant a trip to the doctor's office for a check-up. Blake is tall...in fact, he is off the charts for his age. We also learned that he has an ear infection. Awesome. Did we know about this? Nope. Maybe that is why Blake has been shoving his finger in our ears. Aside from his ears, he is doing great. He is talking a lot..for a rugrat. His favorite phrase is "what's that?" This is almost as fun as the "why?" phase.
The new fun thing that he is doing is saying prayers. He will fold his arms and mumble something and then say Amen...or all done. We can't put his food in front of him before we say a prayer, otherwise, he will start eating before we say a prayer. He also will fold his arms anytime he is hungry or sitting at any table.
His latest obsession is coloring. Thankfully he has just stuck to coloring on paper.
This weekend we went shopping for a Halloween costume. Aaron and I thought a gorilla would be a lot of fun, but weren't so sure how he would do with a costume that required something on his head because he hates hats, so we asked him what he wanted to be. Guess what? He responded...but we'll let you know on Halloween what he came up with.

One of the great things about turning 18 months is Blake is now officially in nursery at church.
Doesn't he looked excited about church?
