Confession

This is a picture of Blake with his new football, he stole it from Old Navy! I was there exchanging some items and he picked it up and was carrying it around the store. We were half way home before I realized the football was still with us. I owe Old Navy $5.00.

Buns

Blake loves being naked. It's funny, if I take his clothes off he suddenly gets a burst of energy. The other day I was getting him ready to take his bath and he was down to just his brown socks. I told him he looked pretty cute and I was going to take a picture of his buns. This is the face he made:

But I got my picture anyway :)

Crazy dog...

For some reason we had a bit of a crazy week. On Thursday, Louis wandered off and ended up in the ravine that is a little ways away from our house. I could hear him barking and barking but I couldn't see him or tell which side of the bank he was on. After awhile it went to a whimper and then nothing. I was sure he was stuck in the creek and died. I was slightly hysterical when I called Chad and told him he had to come home. Then Lou started barking again, we waited for Chad to get home and he went to find Lou. He was able to rescue Louis, we think he fell (rolled, no doubt) down the bank and got stuck on a ledge. His paw was bleeding, but the vet got him all fixed up and everyone is home safe and sound.

Happy St. Patrick's Day

I thought it would be fun to get a picture of Blake in the same spot we did last year on St. Patrick's Day (same couch, different house). This year he was not into sitting on the couch, there was lots of jumping involved.

Children's Museum

We headed to the Seattle's Children's Museum this morning. It is much nicer than the Bellevue Museum, however it was REALLY crowded! I thought Blake would like the Curious George exhibit, he liked everything but the Curious George exhibit. Oh well, we all had a good time and I think the puddles on the way back to the car were the highlight.

Blake enjoyed putting every piece of plastic food in his mouth (gross). So when he has a cold this next week I'll know why.

On the slide

When we are driving Blake loves to point out the buses, he wasn't quite as into the children's bus.

He splashed in every puddle on the way back to the car.

More Snow!

Blake and I got up early this morning (Chad needed some extra rest with busy season). I was surprised to see snow. All of our snow gear is still in Montana, so we just watched from inside. I am happy to report it has all melted.

Day at the Beach

Last week when we had some sun, Blake and I went for a walk with Alison in West Seattle. Blake got to play on the beach with Auntie and throw rocks in the water.

Blake and Lou

I think Blake missed Louis while we were in Montana. Chad had Lou in the car when he came to pick us up at the airport and Blake was really happy to see him. When we got home Blake wanted to give Lou kisses, and he tried to put some chapstick on him :)

Winter in Montana

Blake and I just got back from a great trip to Montana. Chad is in the middle of busy season, so we went to visit Grandma and Grandpa for a few days. We had so much fun! I got to ski two days, Blake went sledding, I took his swimming at the club, we went to dinner and I went to the movies too! One night before dinner we had some champagne and brie. I let Blake try some brie and he LOVED it! I think by the end of the trip he'd eaten the better part of a wedge of brie cheese. After that he wanted butter on his crackers - so heart healthy! We were very spoiled - thank you Grandma & Grandpa :)

Lots of snow
