Update




Blake is something else. Today his new phrase was "No way." I realized that I ask him a million questions in a day because I heard "No way" that many times. Even if I ask him if he wants something like a cookie he automatically says "No way" followed by a pause and then a "Yep."

He has started to do more pretend play. He pretends that he sees animals and we have dialogue about what he sees. Today we were on a boat (couch) and he pointed out everything he saw in the water. I think the pretend shark scared him because he told me "shark home."

He imitates everything. One of my favorites is "Oh my goodness."

When he wants you to sing a song he will say "king kong."

At first he was thrilled with Janie. Lately when I'm holding her and he wants me he yells "No Janie!"
Janie is three weeks tomorrow. She is such a good baby. It is amazing how much she sleeps! She does not like baths and screams the whole time. She has dimples hidden in those cheeks.

More

Here are a few more pictures. Eric's mom was here a little before and after Janie was born. Then my mom came and she just left tonight. It was hard to say goodbye. They were both such great help and I am nervous for my first day on the job alone!

Blake loves "Baby Janie." He always wants to give her kisses. We took them both to the doctors last week and Blake started fake crying when he heard Janie cry. I thought that was cute.



Above is a picture of Blake and below is a picture of Janie. I think they look a lot alike. I just noticed they even have the same arm positioning. They must be related.

Janie Marie

She is here! Janie was born on Friday, February 5th at 8:21 a.m. She weighed 7 pounds 12 ounces and was 21 inches long. We came home from the hospital yesterday and everyone is doing great. I am in baby heaven!
