3 Months on Sunday!

Blake is 3 months old on Sunday! I can't believe it! Time flies!! Today I went after Strollerobics and had Blake weighed. He is now 14 lbs 8 ounces. That is the 75th percentile. I believe he was in the 95th percentile before! On Saturday Cal and I are going on a date, so I'm looking forward to that! We're going to the Eskimo's game if it doesn't rain!! I posted a picture of Blake in his new Bumbo chair! He is so strong and able to hold his head up very well. My Mom bought the chair for him last night and he seems to like it!! I also posted another cute picture of him on his tummy!! It's one of my new faves!! Hope everyone has an excellent long weekend! Take care!

This past weekend Blake, Cal and I headed to Saskatchewan with my parents. We left on Thursday night and stayed at my Grandma Kelley's in North Battleford. Friday we went to Tisdale and stayed until Monday at my Grandma Marg and Grandpa Art's house. Blake travelled well! He was a lot more awake then our trip to Grande Prairie a few weeks ago, but still very good! This was Blake's first time meeting his great grandparents on my side of the family, as well as some of his great aunts, uncles and cousins. We had a fantastic time. On Saturday night we went to my godfather's 50th birthday party and on Sunday we headed to the Smith family cabin at Marean Lake. It was nice to go to the cabin! Growing up my family spent a lot of time there in the summer and even in the winters snowmobiling. I sure miss those carefree summer days!! I hope that as Blake gets older, he is able to spend time there. It is such a great place to spend summer holidays! Next year I'm planning on taking Blake on a tube ride! I thought he was a little bit too young this year (and we couldn't find a life jacket to fit)!!! But he definitely loves his bathes, so hopefully he'll love the water! We are starting Baby and Me aqua fit at the YMCA in September, so we'll see! Blake and I also went to the Capital Ex Parade and Taste of Edmonton with Lesley and Melissa and her family a few weeks ago. This was Blake's 2nd parade - his first was the Farmer's Days parade in Stony Plain. Then a few days later we went to the Ex with Renee and Kaeden. It was lots of fun and we look forward to next year when we can take Blake on some of the kiddy rides!! The weather remains hot and sweaty! Thank goodness our living room is cool! Our upcoming plans are Cal's 10 KM race and Blake and I are going to be taking a trip to Fort McMurray in a few weeks to visit Lindsay and Jeremy and some of my cousins. Cal is taking holidays in September and we are thinking of taking a little trip then too, but no solid plans yet! Take care everyone!
