Brock 2 1/2

This sweet little boy makes our days full of joy!

Before he was born I remember thinking, what will I do with a boy? I've never been around boys... and all I know is girls!  But of course... I figured it out... and man, what a joy it's been!


I'm sure I've said this before on here, but Brock is 100% boy - if not 110%! He loves all things boyish:

tractors,

cars, balls, trains,


planes, backhoes, trackhoes (I don't even know the difference!), spiderman (he doesn't even know who Spiderman is!) footballs, baseballs, ANY balls, etc.

He's been officially potty trained since the week after Thanksgiving.  I came home with a new potty chair on black friday and he literally had maybe 1 accident in his first week. It just really clicked for him and he is soo proud to be such a big boy!







He LOVES working with Papa, Paga & Daddy, and he's such a good little helper (although it's not always HELPFUL!)



He says the cutest things, and though I know he will outgrow it, I wish he'd keep a few of his little words forever!

He calls Maga, "Paga" although he can totally say Maga.

He LOVES Connor.  His first words out of his mouth in the morning are "I anna see Dada", followed by "I anna see Connor".

He always tells me, "Daddy workin!" and when we pull up to AT&T, "Daddy RIGHT dere!"
His goal is to fill Daddy's shoes.... (:

One day he kept saying "Mommy, aaa-lence, aaa-lence" over and over again.  I kept telling him I didn't know what he was saying so he would just shout it louder and louder.  Finally, he makes this exasperated sounds and says, "Firetruck! Wee-oo-wee-ooo"  

(oooooooo.... AMBULANCE!!) (:  I love how he helped me figure out that word based on context.  He does that a LOT.


Brocky's best friend is his twin cousin: Koa
These kids LOVE each other! Brock cries when we leave Naomi's house, and he's always asking to play with, see, or call Koa. Their friendship is so sweet!





































Well I am officially out of time to continue blogging! I'm planning on posting a few more posts in the next week catching up on Christmas & the big 7 (!!!!!!) year old in our house!

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!)
