Blake at 9 Months

Where has the time gone? I feel like we are closing in on a first birthday soon (too soon).
This last month Blake seems to have "grown up" a lot. He is becoming so independent, and daring. He wiggles right out of your arms, and will make a death-defying leap(fall) to reach anything that catches his eye.

This was a big month of new developments. Blake can now:

• Pull up to a standing position
• Drink water from a sippy cup
• Army crawl
• Wave

For those of you following along, I take a photo shoot of Blake each month. I can usually do it alone, if Eric is unavailable... I think those days are gone. He wouldn't hold still for a second!

Will You be my Valentine?

Blake's first Valentine's Day was a hit! He enjoyed all the cards and gifts from his grandparents.
