Blake is 4

On January 6th Blake turned 4. We had a little party for him at our house on his birthday. He invited a few freinds, they played in the sandbox, climbed trees, bounced in the bounce house and just had fun being boys. He had a great time and loves his friends!

At 4 Blake loves to play with his brothers and Reese. He doesn't like it when she copies what he's doing - as he says "Reese is coffee-ing me", he loves trains and building tracks, loves to ride his bike and rides without training wheels, loves to be with Dad but is still a Mama's boy :) He's very affectionate and I can't get enough of his hugs and kisses!
