Blake

We just really love Blake at our house. He's so much fun.

One of my greatest (ok, maybe the only) ideas I have had since moving to the new house was to put the kids' drinking glasses down low. That way when Carson wanted a drink he could just go get his own cup and fill it up from the fridge water/ice dispenser. For a while, Carson was climbing on the counter to reach his cups. He kept promising me he wouldn't fall, with words like, "Mom, I'm big now, I won't fall." but I knew a little better, thus the cups-down-low approach began.

About a month ago, Blake discovered the cups. He now crawls to the cupboard, picks out a cup and bangs it against the fridge until someone fills it for him. Pretty darn adorable if you ask me.

Also, one Sunday when we were rushing to get out the door for church I walked out and saw this. He was soooo excited about it. Mike ran and got the camera and I'm glad he did, cuz now I think it's pretty darn adorable too!

I love it! Great idea with the cups. I should do that. Why haven't I? We've put the bowls, spoons, and Rubbermaid-cereal-dispenser-encased cereal down low. Why not cups?

See? You ARE a genius.

And that last picture is a killer. What a cute (and very happy) little guy. Awesome camera moves, Mike.
