A surprise discovery of a whistle prompted an exciting round of "did anyone call for a lifeguard?" during bath-time a few days ago, complete with visor, and some yelling at Ellie for disobeying the rules of the water.Did anyone else know that 'guards wear their pants so high? This is actually quite a rare shot, because 90% of the time Blake puts his clothes on backward. Yes, even the underwear. Now that can't be comfortable.
Blake has recently been very inspired to help out by making his bed, getting dressed, etc. Tonight, I noticed that he even made his bed when he snuck out of it at 9:00 PM to cuddle with dad. I carried him back in about 15 minutes later and the covers were nicely tucked-in. I was quite touched, actually, and a little proud, even though it made the sleeping transfer more difficult.Blake is sweet and kind and honest. Just this past week he told a man at Costco, "You don't get a sample, you're fat." And told my friend after she served him lunch, "Everything you cook tastes like my mattress." This last comment could be confusing on many levels, though knowing Blake's penchant for licking things, he probably does have a pretty good sense of what his mattress tastes like.

This reminds me of my friend. She asked her daughter if the pants she was wearing made her look fat.
Her daughter said, "Yes. Do you want me to show you where?"
Classic.
I hope you are writing these little phrases down in a book somewhere, just so in 20 years when he decides to get married you can teach him what NOT to say to his future wife.
