Lotion!

I was taking a shower yesterday and if Sadie is awake, I stick her in the rocker sleep and play (her old bed) and drag it in the bathroom with me. Blake is usually in and out playing. After taking my shower, I see Blake in the bathroom and say, "Blake, you have lotion on your face!"

Yep, he got into the lotion.

 Blake then says, "Baby has lotion too!"

"What?"

I turn to look at Sadie....

And started laughing so hard:

Baby has lotion too!! LOL

Oh, my poor girl, haha!! During all this, she didn't make a peep, so I had no idea this was going on!

 My neighbor heard that I was looking for a walker for Sadie, so she brought over her old one, which happens to have a steering wheel and make car noises. Guess who loves this walker?

My very boyish little boy :) 

 It has been GORGEOUS here the past few days, so we headed to the zoo yesterday. Blake and Sadie both loved it. I had Sadie in my baby bjorn (baby carrier) and Blake walked. They are making a new bear exhibit at the zoo, so there was another attraction--excavators!!!

There was a piece of machinery that looked like a bulldozer, but then later I saw it raise up it's loader, but I had already told Blake it was a bulldozer. I then commented that oh, it wasn't a bulldozer and the "maybe" 4-year old boy next to us says in a very matter of fact voice without skipping a beat, "That isn't a bulldozer, it's a front loader with Caterpillar tracts and the rest of them are excavators." Oh. Thank you.  Sorry Blake, bulldozer and diggers weren't the correct terms. :)

Sadie zonked out in her car seat on the way home. 

 Since it has been so gorgeous, Blake likes to try to escape out the front door. Oh, but don't worry, he puts on some shoes and occasionally a hat :)

He has taken my dansko shoes, my boots, and my sandles out all at different occasions. He doesn't get far, so i don't get too concerned :) 

 Blake isn't the least bit shy once he gets outside. We've been meeting new people since he says "hi" to everyone, points out everyone's dog, and joins every ball game that is going on. We met a new family yesterday and they were more than willing to let Blake step in and throw his football to them every once in a while, even though it interrupted their football throwing (yes, Blake just happened to be carrying a football when we showed up). I love how nice people are to my sports-loving son! Our immediate neighbor has kids come to play and the other day one of the little boys kept giving Blake the basketball to throw and followed him when it looked like Blake was going to go into the street. I'm going to miss this place. :(

Sadie continues to get up twice at night, so Scott's been getting up with Blake in the morning to let me get a little bit more sleep. I just found these gems on the camera from one of their mornings :)

Blake takes care of Teddy

Blake joins Teddy

And gives a big smile! :)
