Blake's tricks

Every time my Mom calls, she asks me what tricks Blake does. I can never come up with a real good answer. I decided to think about it before she calls the next time, so I'll have an approved answer.

So here are some of Blake's "tricks". He sleeps through the night. Personally, I think this is his best trick. He'll go to bed around 8:30 or 9 and sleep till 9 or so in the morning. He has a strange, but funny laugh. It's almost like he's coughing. He likes to examine things. When he picks something up he'll twist his hand back and forth to look at all the sides, and if he approves of it, then it's allowed in his mouth.

He hasn't hated any food that I've given him. He'll pull funny faces but he'll keep eating it. He rolls from place to place He hasn't quite gotten the hang of crawling forward yet. He'll go backwards, but not forwards. He loves bath time. He kicks his legs and moves his arms the entire time. He's the King of splashing.

He knows how to get attention. He smiles at all the girls. He finds it funny when I say, "tss, tss". Even if he can't see me, he starts to smile. He loves Elmo. He loves sugar. He loves all food. He likes to go on walks and observe everything around him. He likes riding in the car, only if it's moving. He likes watching cartoon movies. He loves being held upside down. He loves dancing. He talks himself to sleep. He likes it when I brush his teeth. He gets impatient and takes the toothbrush away from me after 30 seconds, so he can just chew on it.

Brushing his teeth. Well, basically just chewing on it
