Blake's Favorite Things

Our boy will be five months old next week and he already has quite the personality along with some strong preferences. I thought I would just lay out some of his top favorite things.

Water!
Our little boy loves water. The sounds of water, whether it's the rainfall app on our phone, running water from the faucet, sink, shower, you name it. He is even quite cooperative during bath time, he just sits there, looks at us, and smiles as we wash him and dump water on him. I consider us lucky since I have heard of babies who cry during their entire bath time. I am also blessed to be able to take a shower daily since he likes the sound of the running water and the hair dryer.

Here he is being a good boy while waiting for mommy to get ready.

Rolling over
Ever since he turned over on New Years Eve from his back to his tummy, he has not stopped! If I lay him down on his back on the floor, he immediately turns over. He does not spend much time on his back anymore, he is a busy boy and has stuff to do, like figuring out how to crawl...

Elmo!
I take full responsibility on this one, but our little boy loves Elmo already. If he sees and hears Elmo on television, the phone, or the computer he immediately lights up and smiles. People have warned me that Elmo gets old after a while, but I don't care as long as I can keep him away from Sponge Bob for as long as possible...

 













Football
Blake loves to watch football. I partly say it is due to the fact that we got him home from the hospital in time to watch the first OU football game of the season. We also watched most of the college game day's on ESPN this year and professional football as well. So basically it has been football season for this boy's entire life. Hopefully he will like basketball as well...

Women
Our little man is quite the flirt. Why wouldn't he be? He always has women coming up to him and telling him how cute and handsome he is and he just sits there and laughs, smiles, or makes cooing sounds. I even noticed him making cooing sounds when he saw Jessica Shambach on our local news last night...too cute.

For now those are Blake's favorite things. I'm sure his favorite things will expand and evolve over time. It's been so exciting to see him develop and grow thus far.
