2 years old!

Height: 3ft

Weight: 31.6 lbs

Blake is 2!! I can't believe my baby is 2! He is such a joy in our house. He's happy 90% of the time and is always up for laughs! He loves to play chase or hide and seek (mostly we hide behind a wall and then jump out at him and he loves it). Trucks and cars are his FAVORITE and he loves to watch them drive by. He's talking more and more finally and hopefully it continues! It is so fun to see him grow and learn new things. This year has been full of change for Blake becoming a big brother and all and it was hard for him at first but he's come a long way and I'm so proud of him! 

He's also already got 2 of his 2 year old molars, so we only have 2 more teeth to go and then we are done until he's 6-ish 🙌🏻 Blake still takes a nap in the afternoon which is so nice. He still loves loves loves his little Racoon lovey and sleeps with him every nap and night time. I just seriously can't believe it's been 2 years already!! We love you Blakey Boo and can't wait to see all the new things this year brings for you. ❤️

Blake did NOT want to take pictures! But we eventually got some non screaming ones.

Emberlee is a happy little girl! I remember Blake was a lot like this as well where basically the only time he cried was when he was tired or hungry and Emberlee is exactly the same! It's a blessing to have such happy babies that's for sure. She loves singing and squealing; she's definitely gotten louder this month! She has figured out how comfy her crib is and takes 2 solid naps in it as well as sleeping a lot better at night again.

Dislikes:

Being left alone while Mommy puts Blake to bed

Taking too many naps away from mommy (she'll do one solid nap a day in her crib) 

Little Emberlee is growing up! She sleeps through the night really consistently now and eats 7-8 ounces 4-5 times a day. She is still super smiley and I can get her to giggle pretty consistently with tickles. She is the cutest thing and we love her so much! She loves being talked and sung to and loves the books "That's Not My Reindeer" and "How to Charm a Llama". Emberlee is trying really hard to blow raspberries and it's pretty cute to watch her try.

Emberlee is 2 months old! She drinks about 5- 5.5 ounces of milk, only wakes up once at night and is just a happy happy girl! She's started to recognize her bottles and will smile when she sees them. Emberlee is a tummy time champ and holds her head up really well! On Sunday she rolled over for the first time! She was on a couch so it helped her a bit, but I'm still counting it. She was blessed by her dad on the 1st of this month and got to wear the same dress that my sister's and I all wore when we were blessed. We love you sweet girl!! ❤️

Emberlee is now 1 month old! It has gone by so fast. She is the sweetest thing and she only cries when she's hungry and tired. She has the sweetest smiles and actually smiles quite often for such a tiny baby! Blake still isn't too sure about her, but he helps me by throwing away her dirty diapers. The first couple weeks Emberlee had this banshee scream when she was hungry and it would scare Blake, but now that she doesn't do that anymore, he's much more comfortable with her. Emberlee is a big eater and already eats up to 4 ounces of milk! 

We are so glad Emberlee is a part of our family, and we can't wait to see more and more of her personality!
