Blake is starting solids

Aunt Heather just sent these pictures of Blake. I will title them as she did in the email. I got a nice little chuckle looking at these with her captions. :)


Saying a prayer before his meal

What's that?

Aunt Heather, can I feed myself?

Great Grandpa Jones

My Grandpa Jones (Marc's mom's dad) passed away this morning after a stroke in February. He was 93. We went to see him late last week and came home yesterday. When he met Blake for the first time on Thursday he was able to raise an arm and tickle Blake's tummy making him smile and Grandpa smiled back. He was always optimistic, had a positive outlook, and remembered every joke ever told. Here are some pictures.......

Blake 4 month appt

Blake had a great appt today. He is SO TOUGH!! He got 3 shots and didn't even flinch on the first one, the second one he got a mad look on his face and the third he screamed once but when we stopped holding him down he didn't scream anymore. He still had the mad look on his face though. I think he was more upset with me for putting him in his car seat after the shots. :)
He is a BIG boy! He weighs 17 lbs 8.5 oz (93%), is 26.5 inches long (93%) and 17.25 head (80%). Lauren was 13 lbs 10 oz (50%) and 25.5 inches long (95%).

Blake's Baptism

Blake was baptised on July 4th. Papa (his Grandpa Anderson) came in from Portland to meet him - more pictures of papa's visit will be on here soon.

A future star in the World Cup?

Still almost twins!

The first picture is of Lauren and the second is of Blake, both about the same age doing the same thing and still looking a lot alike!
