I am in disbelief that my little girl is going to be ONE YEAR OLD this week. Let me tell you about this little angel and brag about how amazing I think she is. Blake started walking a little after 10 months and when she figured out the walking she did not want to crawl anymore. Her walk is hilarious, she looks like she has been riding a horse for days, she walks all bow legged. Right after learning to walk I went and bought her a pair of shoes so she can go for walks outside. Never in my life have I seen a little one like shoes so much. Right off the bat, she would bring me her shoes and sit down and pick up her feet. This is just ONE days after buying the shoes and she wasn't even 11 months yet. She still loves her shoes, I tell her to go get them and if something doesn't distract her before she finds them she'll get them and bring them to me. She is learning to sign and LOVES watching videos of people signing songs with the music. She has always loved music and she is very intrigued by sign language. She can now sign milk and shoes. Blake has a funny fascination with scaring people. It's like peek-a-boo but she roars at you. She will leave and go into another room then when she is coming back she'll roar right when she comes in the room like, "haha, I scared and you didn't even know I was gone." It's hilarious. Today at church she stuck her head under the back of the metal chair in front of us and roared at the ladies sitting on each sides of the chair. They didn't notice but Kade and I got a good kick out of it. Blakely LOVES to read books! We read them over and over again, well now I can just recite them and turn the pages, that's how many times we have read them. She loves to play with other kids and I wish she was around her cousins more. Good thing she has a sibling coming in April 2015. Yup, SURPRISE! Blakely is going to be a big sister.
Blakely Jo has been a great blessing in our lives. Kade and I would be so bored without her silly self to keep us entertained. I am truly amazed at how much love I feel for this little person and grateful to my Heavenly Father for giving me this opportunity.
