Molly Maid's...

Blaker is SUCH a little helper these days....HA.....wel, at least he tries. He is obsessed with vacuums, mops, brooms...all household cleaning items. This has actually been on obsession for awhile now. We got him a little vacuum for Christmas so he could help around the house.

Here he is....helping my mom vacuum!
Wish that this thing really worked....he is actually quite good at it!!
Deciding that he would rather use the real thing!!
What a guy....I hope that his love of the vacuum continues when he is actually old enough to use it!!
He takes it very seriously!!

Ahhhh.....what a peanut. Just love him so much :)

Survivor Party

Back when Survivor first started my family had a “Survivor Party” every Thursday to watch the show. Over the years our interest in Survivor kind of faded…but this season I am hooked again!!

Last night we headed out to my parents house for dinner and Survivor!

We had baked chicken alfredo, salad, and bread…and then fresh chocolate chip cookies for dessert. I ate way too much. And noticed this a.m. when I had gained 1.4 pounds since yesterday morning. I hope that some of that was just water weight!!
Blake was busy playing around the whole house. Nothing is off limits for this kid anymore!!
He was up the stairs, down the stairs, on the fire place ledge, trying to climb on the coffee table and anything else that he could!!
Gma finally got him to relax for a few minutes to read a book!
I can’t believe that the Villains got rid of Coach last night…not that I am a huge fan of “the Dragon Slayer”…but they are idiots. How in the world are they going to compete with the Hero’s now?! IDK, b/c I like the hero’s anyway….but what the heck?! The only Villain that I liked was Boston Rob, and they sent him packing last week! Russell is a creep!

Getting better all the time!

I think that we have turned a corner! Blake woke up this morning snot free and in a good mood! I hope that this sickness is finally behind us. He is back at “school” this a.m. (really daycare, but @ Creative Beginnings so we call this one school b/c it is much more structured than the other). He slept for 12 hours straight last night (8-8) so he should be well rested and ready to play!
When I dropped him off this a.m. I noticed that there was a new boy in class. He was SO tiny! They told me that he just turned 12 mo. yesterday. Blake is in the Wobbler Room for 12-24 mo. olds. Before the new boy, Blake was the baby. His older classmates called him “baby” and treated him like a baby…so maybe now the new boy will be the “baby”…I felt so bad for Blake. Hopefully he can teach the new kids the ropes…lol!
My mom got to Florida yesterday to see my grandparents and aunt and uncle. Of course it isn’t very warm there, but much better than it is here! I talked to her and it was 60 and sunny. It is in the teens and snowy here…so I am sure that she is enjoying it!
I am heading back to Weight Watchers tonight. I REALLY need to get serious. I feel like I have fallen off the bandwagon. I did so good all of 2009, but in 2010 I am slipping! I don’t want to gain any weight back…so I need to get serious!! I will let you know how I did this past week tomorrow!
These are random pics from last week, but I hadn't posted them..so thought that I would just throw them in today! I havent taken many pictures this week..and hate to post with none! I will take some new ones tonight :)

We're 1/2 way there............

...........to the weekend that is!!

Thank goodness the week is ½ over. Lately I have been living for the weekends! I think that I am worried about Blake during the week, so I am constantly watching the clock…but it is getting better. He had a good day at Creative Beginnings on Monday. Yesterday he got to stay at home with my mom all day because Michel was sick so he couldn’t go to Amy’s. He is at Creative Beginnings again today...and I just called and he is having another good day. Hopefully we have turned a corner and the rough days at daycare are a thing of the past :)

We went to the in-laws for dinner last night. Ryan dad usually works out of town all week, but he is home this week…so it was nice to get together as a fam. Blake had a good time playing with cousin Addy. I didn’t get any pics…

Tonight I am going to Weight Watchers...but I am freaking out about weighing in. I just ate a ginormus lunch at Max and Emily’s…WHAT is wrong with me?!?! Blah. I was starving at the time...and now I am STUFFED. I need to find a balance with my eating situation!

This weekend we are heading north to Tip-Up-Town with friends. It is going to be COLD. It is already in the single digits and negative 14 with wind-chill. Almost painful to be outside. Hopefully it warm up a bit, because we will probably be outside enjoying the brisk winter weather this weekend! BURRR.

These pics are from last Saturday. Blake had just woke up from a 3 hour nap...YES, 3 HOURS....he took a 3.5 hour nap yesterday....CRAZY!

He thinks I'm silly with all of the pics!
Look at that WILD hair. I am not quite sure what to do with it. I think that he needs a trim. Ryan says NO WAY. I think that Ry is a bit sensitive to the idea b/c he is loosing some of his hair (he does not read this so I can write that :))
Here we are with my mama. The lighting is bad...but we used the self timer...
so this is as good as we got!

and he's off like a Big Boy!!

Well...almost 13 months later...and Blaker is off to daycare! Today is his 1st day and he is only there for a half day. He really didn't even notice when I left....so I am SURE that he is doing just fine.....

No more of this with grams....
he was getting pretty darn spoiled...I think that he needs some routine in his life!
But OMG....he is just my itty bitty baby.....so sweet....I guess all momma's worry, huh??
Tues and Thur afternoons and Fridays he is just at an in-home care place with an acquaintance. I don't have to worry much about that. There will only be one or two other little guys there at a time.
Mon and Wed he will be at what I refer to as 'school'...a full day with LOTS of kids, packed with lots of activities. We test that out tomorrow. Wish us luck (specifically me)!!
