CAMPING AT LAKE ARCADIA!

This past weekend we took Blake on his first camping excursion. We were kind of hesitant so we went to a campground only about 10 minutes from our house just in case his first experience didn't go over well. We had great time! We camped with a few of our friends from Erik's class and definitely can't wait to go again (minus the ticks and other creepy crawlies). Blake just can't get enough of being outside as you can see by the pictures...he's definitely a boy who LOVES to get down and dirty!
I haven't posted recently so I should mention that he has finally started walking. 14 months was when he really started flirting with steps and now there's no turning back. So many people have told me that it's so hard when kids begin walking...I think I'm going to have to disagree! No more pants with holes in them no more tops of dirty shoes and no more cleaning his hands every minute (okay, I still do that)! It's so fun to just see him walk. He can't get enough of it. We love seeing him grow everyday but wish he would slow down a little. :)

He can't get enough of sticks!

Ready to PRACTICE their fly fishing

I can definitely eat those yummy cheeks!

Daddy has his pole, Blake has his stick!

FILTHY!

Playing outside is his favorite!

He always wants to wear these and sunglasses!
