1 year old today


*    One year. How can it be possible?

Really.

I mean I know you hear me say that each month as it passes, but how can my little boy be 1-year-old?

How can one year have already passed??


Brocky (as we affectionately call him!) is a laid back, little sweet-pea of a boy.  He really is "go-with the flow" and it's a good thing since he's in THIS family!  Life is always a whirlwind and Brocky is so laid back that he meshes well with our crazies! ha. He is like Natalee in that he won't go to sleep or relax in your arms.  He prefers his bed and no snuggling (waah!) but, unlike Natalee, Brock also will go to sleep quite easily in his car seat.

As his first year hits me - I want to be sure to record all the things Brocky is doing right now...
   *cruising on furniture
   *crawling on his feet (bear crawl) - his favorite method of transportation
   *screaching/screaming at the top of his lungs (he's loud)
   *pushing everything around like it's a truck (bottles, cups, toys)
   *signs: all done, more, eat, and drink
   *says: "ah-done", "no,no,no,no" and "ball"
   *babbles: da-da, ma-ma, ba-ba,
   *still scrunches up his nose all the time
   *LOVES playing (parallel) with the girls
   *getting soooo close to letting go and standing on his own, but just not quite confident enough
   *getting in to EVERYTHING: toilet paper, cupboards, drawers, laundry baskets, etc.
   * has 9 teeth (two molars, four front top, three front bottom)
   *started giving kisses WILLINGLY on his birthday (awwwww)
*loves playing with his twin cousin Koa!   (Brock & Koa on their birthday)(Brock & Koa on their birthday)
   *waves bye-bye and says "da" while waving to Daddy

O how we love our little boy!! We can't wait to see all that he becomes as the years go by!! (:

ooops!

I just realized that those "8 Month" pics I posted a few days ago weren't the 8 month pix.  They were more like one day shy of 7 month pictures... and THESE are the 8 month pictures! ha. o well... not much difference.  My editing was terrible in the 7 month pix - these are unedited, and probably for the best since it's not my strong suite! ha! (isn't this outfit from Nonnie ADORABLE!?) Love, love, love this one:    This is a typical face.  If he's not sucking in his lip, he's spitting and soaking his shirt with drool! (sorry so blurry - just had to remember this face!)
