Blakey's Day

Our little Blakey-man turned 3 last Thursday(March 19). We had a fun packed day with cousins grandparents and aunts and uncles all here to celebrate Blake. It's crazy to think that it has been three years since Blake was born. He has been such a blessing to our family and we know that he came to us at a very important time. He is such a unique guy and is always surprising us with things he does and says. He makes me laugh every single day and we love, love, love him very much. I am so happy that I get to be his mom.

Ben and I took Blake, Eli and their cousins Ainsley and Beckett to Jumping Jacks. I think they all had fun - probably more than should be allowed.

this is ben taking all four kids down the "really huge" slide. hil-ar-i-ous!


Then we came home and got ready for the big bash. Blakey kept telling people that it was his Spider-man birthday. So Spider-man it was.

gma ellie knew to get two cans of pringles as part of the gift. no sharing necessary.

matt & erica gave him this fantastic jersey

he thought the candle was a big candy shaped like a 3

the scooter gma jan gave him - two scooters and both have already been worn-in


opening presents can be exhausting


An intense game of baseball with a soccer ball and fun in the bouncy castle followed the festivities.

Thank you to everyone who came to celebrate with us - especially Matt & Erica, who came all the way from Indiana just for Blake's big day - right guys? And to my mom and dad who were there because of a head injury, but still managed to party with us. We love you all and Blakey is very lucky to have so many people that love him!

*and thanks, mom, for taking the pictures for me!
