Thank you to my brother Rob, I finally have a blog going!
So our lives were forever changed on June 16, 2012. We welcomed Drake into this world at 11:28pm. He has been such a blessing in our lives! We love him so much!
Drake was 2 weeks old in this picture! We were lucky enough to come home after Drake was born and get his newborn pictures taken. Apparently they like to take them when they are this little or littler so that you can bend the babies however you want and do all those cute little newborn poses but it turned out Drake didn't like to be curled up at all, and just laid all sprawled out for his pictures! Haha he had attitude even at just 2 weeks old!
Drake was 4 months in this picture. We were once again able to come home in october a week or 2 before Halloween. At 4 months Drake was able to sit up on his own for about 3 seconds. Also at this time he was just beginning to roll over from back to tummy and vise-versa.
This is Drake at 6 months! By this time he could sit up on his own for as long as he wanted. And he could roll across the room to get to whatever he wanted. And he really started to show more attitude!
And this is Drake just a couple days ago! He is so much fun! He has so much attitude its not even funny! The other morning I woke up to him kicking me on my stomach, and might I add that he can kick a lot harder then you all probably think he can. When he gets frustrated or mad he growls! haha he is so funny I just love it! He has been picking up food and eating it for about a month now. His favorite foods are scrambled eggs and bread. He spit out bananas, strawberries, and mashed potatoes! I'm sure after time he will learn to like those! Every morning for breakfast we have eggs and toast and he loves it! Its a lot of fun to watch him learn all these new things. Tonight for dinner he was putting all his food in his cup holder in his high chair and then eating it out of the cup holder! It was super cute! And actually while I was writing this he broke my glasses, I guess thats what I get for not paying attention :) He gets into everything now! It is super fun to watch him explore things and discover all these cool new things. He really loves Tank and Diesel too. It is sweet to see the dogs with him. Every morning Tank comes up to him wagging his tail and Drake just smiles and laughs at him! Its very cute! About a week ago he started to pull himself up on things. It is funny because he curls his toes and stands on his toes, it looks like it hurts really badly! So the other day I bought him a pair of shoes and while he was wearing them he had his toes curled the whole time he had them on :) He is starting to get brave and letting go of things and standing on his own, he has also started to take a little step!! He is going to be walking soon! He is also a little stunt baby thanks to Tyler. He likes to be thrown and flipped!
And finally this is my little man taking a nap. He really doesn't like to sleep. I have such a great baby, he is so happy, he is fun, he hardly ever cries, but let me tell you, when it comes to sleeping he gives me a run for my money. He really just doesn't like to take naps and when he does they are 20-30 minutes, sometimes an hour when I get lucky. I love him so much though and wouldn't trade him for anything.
I can't wait to see what adventures await us!
Love the Williamson's :)
