Birthday Boy

Happy Birthday to my Blake!


Blake's birthday was last week, better late than never right? Anyway, Blake is 3! I can't believe how time flies! This last year has been quite the eventful one for Blake. At 2 years old, he was still having trouble sleeping through the night, and snoring horribly! He ended up getting his tonsils and adenoids out. Happy to report he slept beautifully after that! Shortly after (4 days to be exact) he got a new brother! Which he loves very much now...Ty cried too much for Blake in the beginning. :) In the summer we had Blake evaluated for early intervention for his lack of speech, and he qualified for their program, which has been so great. He started his toddler school in August and has loved it. His teacher, Julie, came to our house twice a month, which was such a great learning experience for me and for Blake. Blake has also become much more social with people. Blake took his first trip up to Primary Child's too this past year. Not the most fun experience, but was put on asthma medication since then. Let's not forget the worst experience this year too....the burn. Many trips up to the U, but glad to report that it all healed up perfectly. Christmas was so much fun this year too with Blake; he loves to open presents now, which before it was just work for us. Blake has grown up so fast this year and has been such a blessing to us. We love you Blake!

I can't believe you have a 3 year old either! Happy Birthday to Blake! He has had quite the eventful year-poor guy. That is great that his speech is improving. I am afraid we might be heading to the same point with Sadie.
