Terrible Twos Poster Child....

Will the real Blake Christensen Please Stand Up?

This little man is just a month from turning two, and sure enough, our sweet little Blake magically turned into a little MOnster --Overnight!

So we took him to dinner at Market Street Grill this last weekend -- Big Mistake. For some reason, he just had to hold all three Glass bottles of Ketchup, Tabasco Sauce, and Vinegar all at once. We have never been so bugged by those condiments on our table until this dining experience. It wouldn't be so hard if our child didn't yell out a shrieking scream every time we tried to sneak them away. He unfortunately decided to demonstrate his new 'discovery' to us on this evening, which was this: He ups the volume on that scream, and we do whatever the heck it takes to calm him down. (We of course give in to his demands in an attempt to finish our dinner and to try and allow others to finish theirs too, in peace!) Steve and I both agreed that we haven't had a Friday Date that THRILLING and adventurous in a long time.

Just this morning I caught him practicing his dramatic cry and squeal in front of the lower oven's shiny reflection! He was holding the oven handle, while shaking the oven door open and closed, and watching his dramatic performance!

Here, he is demonstrating another Two Year Old Skill -- The 'On Your Back Kick n' Scream Combo'

Here he is - The little Poster Boy Himself
