Blake's 10 Month Update

Blake is now 10 months old. We took him to the doctor for his check up (it was supposed to be a 9-month check, but with all the moving and craziness of summer we delayed it a bit).

His current stats:

Weight: 16.81 pounds (1st percentile)
Height: 28.5 inches (40th percentile)

He's kinda skinny! We're not worried about it though.

We also took him to get his pictures taken. Here they are:

Softball Summer

Mike and I are playing in a summer softball co-ed league. We're having tons of fun and our team is pretty good!

Swim Lessons continued

We finished our first round of swim lessons this past week. We'll go for round two in August. Carson did level 1 and Blake and I did Mom & Tot, a.k.a. sunbathe with your baby :)

Blake, Carson and my shadow!

Oquirrh Mountain Temple Open House

A couple of weeks ago we ventured down to the temple open house. We thought Carson would like to actually see inside of a temple. I don't know if we just confused him more with statements like, "We can go inside this temple, but not other temples" and "See this water, this is where people get baptized, but not where you'll be baptized". Oh well, it was neat to see!

Isaac

Today marks 5 years since the birth of our precious little boy Isaac in Renton, Washington. He was born prematurely and did not live. We think about him often. Happy Birthday, little guy!

Fourth of July Extravaganza

We had a busy and fun holiday weekend.

On Friday we went to Jackson Hole to see my sister and go to the Bar-T-5 cowboy dinner show. We stopped on the way in Swan Valley to get a square ice cream cone. Blake was pretty insistent that Mike share his cone.

Blake with cousin Justin:

Riding with Aunt Shanae:

I looked over at these two during the show. Uncle Derek was teasing Carson pretty much the whole night!

Then on Saturday morning we woke up early and headed to Aberdeen to go boating at the reservoir. The weather was perfect and we had a fabulous time.

Carson loved playing in the sand and the water:

This is Carson and Mike trying out Derek's tube. It seats three people and can spin when pulled behind the boat. Lots of fun!
My friend Jessica has more pictures on her blog. So, if you're not sick of seeing these check it out!
