I once said, "I don't understand why people 'baby-proof' their homes. I would never do that because it would make my house ugly"...until I had Blake.
Another time I said, "I don't understand how people don't get their babies on schedules. It is easy to just put them down for naps and bedtime at the same time every day."...until I had Blake.
I never understood how babies would take off their diapers and always put their hands 'down there'...until I had Blake.
I always thought it was easy to just feed your kids any baby food suggested by the doctor and they would have no problem eating it all...until I had Blake.
I never understood when I heard about 'that kid' who got into the toilet and played in the water...until I had Blake.
A friend once told me that she couldn't wait for me to loose my patience with Collin (because she had lost patience with her kids). That probably didn't happen often...until I had Blake.
I never knew baths could be so messy...until I had Blake.
I thought taking kids out to a restaurant was never that hard...until I had Blake.
I've never...
seen a faster crawl
heard a cuter laugh
tugged a stronger tug
wished for time to stand still
prayed so hard for her to be comfortable
witnessed a special sister bond
loved like this
or felt this loved
...until I had Blake.
Happy 10 months to Blake. She just took 21 steps the other night (per her daddy's note taking). Boy are we in for fun!

Send her on over. This house is 100% baby/toddler proof, and ugly......maybe she will stand a chance with logan.
I just love that little Blake!! She is offically your "Id never do that baby". We all get at least one... what an eye opener hun. Good luck mamma!:)
Welcome to the club!
Wow! I can't believe Colin never did those things! I'm glad to see Blake is keeping you on your toes. Such a cutie pie!!! We need to get the girls together again. :)
I know that I wished this upon you. Collin was just "too easy"! But life just needs a little excitement doesn't it? I miss you guys and can't believe Blake is walking! Can we please get together soon so I can see her in action? Thank you.
Isn't she just an active, curious, busy little thing! haha... always got a kick out of the sayings people would say when what they meant was, your kids a pill and won't sit still. I love her face! So glad you had a fun visit home! Enjoy the fun!!
sounds like Blake and Posey were cut from the same mold. She sure is cute!
I can't wait to experience Blake for myself next month.
and..I'm secretly glad you didn't get another Collin.:)
Aren't you the little writer! I can't believe she's walking ALREADY! Pretty unbelievable!
