Blake found his thumb. He also seems to twirl his yet-to-be hair. I am scared of the bald spot he may create when his hair grows in.

Garage Sale Find
Andrew and I bought Blake his first garage sale toy. Teenie decided to try it out for us since Blake is a wee bit small for it. He gets to try it, with a towel, on his 11 week birthday this Friday.
I Am Just Learning
Andrew is teaching me how to upload these videos by myself. So you may get bored of watching Blake play with toys, but this is for the sake of my internet education.
Grammie gave Blake this crocheted rattle.
Now Blake has moved onto wooden toys.
Now for the Teenie toy.
I did it, I did it. They are all loaded. Andrew will be so proud.

Beach Days
My friend Miriam and her boyfriend Daniel came and stayed with us this weekend so we could go surfing in Santa Cruz on Sunday. Miriam is from Germany and had never surfed before, but Andrew played instructor and helped her experience the California surf. She had a blast and is ready to take on more waves.
Here Andrew is showing her the ropes on a makeshift sand surfboard.
The three of them are off to hang ten.
Blake spent a good three hours wrapped in a blanket snoozing away. The poor guy got sunburned cheeks because I forgot that the umbrellas don't offer full sun protection. Doctors say you shouldn't use sunscreen on babies under six months, but this beach babe needs more help than his hat since we tend to stay out all day.

Riding it in.
Miriam got up!
Dad and son/
The camera erased some of the pictures so this is the only one of the two of us that survived. We look like crazy tourists.
The weather was perfect and we had to take a late evening stroller ride to Walgreens to buy new aloe vera gel because all of us got sunburned. It wouldn't be the first beach trip of the summer without us looking like lobsters around 10pm.

Genes are Fun
My grandfather burnt me a CD of their old family slides from when my father was a baby. I put up one of the pictures in an earlier post, but I couldn't resist adding another one since I now see this exact expression in Blake these days. It is so crazy how a little person can resemble so many family members all at once. My grandfather is holding my dad in this picture. Blake's arms are exactly the same.
