The beginning...

Setting up this blog is something I've been wanting to do for awhile. Scott's been blogging with his class for years now and I jumped on the bandwagon last September.

It seems to be a medium that fits our message - we can record stories, thoughts, events, photos, videos and whatever else for us and Blake, and family and friends can check in if they like.

Incredibly, Blake's been around for almost a year now and there are already events and stages of his life I've forgotten. I see a little baby now and I have to strain to remember him being that small. Of course, I do have gazillions of photos to jog my memory.

Here he is the day he arrived in his pink blanket and here is today, the happiest, smiliest, most wonderful boy.

Zzzzzz

My little guy is not a quiet sleeper.
He snores, for one thing, which he must have got from his father because I have never heard myself snore.
But that's just the beginning. He also sighs, laughs, grunts and moans.
Just recently he has begun to make a fog horn sounding noise before he falls into a deep sleep. Eyes closed, body still and then he makes 4 or 5 long fog horn like sounds that make me laugh so hard I nearly wake him up.
That phrase slept like a baby has whole new meaning for me now.

Can you believe how dirty that shirt is? He loves oranges and the juicier the better.
