Happy 9 months to Brock!


I've been on a blogging hiatus but sometimes I feel like I just need to put down the camera and enjoy the moment. I like the second picture of Brock because he looks like he's seducing the camera. Brock is honestly such a good baby. He loves table food and can eat his body weight in mac n' cheese. Healthy, I know. He still isn't crawling because he can get where he wants by rolling. I always say Austin's my singer and Brock's my drummer. He loves to rock out to music.
Heidi, Barb, and I had a girl's day and went to lunch and 27 dresses (cute movie). We then met up with the boys who were at the beach fishing off the pier with all the babies. Our guys came up empty handed but the guys right next to them caught a 4 foot shark. That freaked me out enough to not want to swim in the ocean anytime soon!

You are so right about that 2nd pic of Brock! It's cracking me up. I've heard 27 dresses is pretty cute. Wow about that shark. That's my biggest fear in the water, but I LOVE shark week! =)

So cute, we should get the boys together and make a few boxes of mac n cheese and let 'em go. Berk would love it! Cute pictures!!!

Wow, your little Brock has some GORGEOUS eyes! He's not just going to be able to seduce camara's when he gets older. You're going to have to beat girls off with a stick! He is so handsome! You guys make beautiful babies! I just recently switched my blog to private. I don't know that I have your email address to send you an invite, so if you would like one, feel free to email me at sarahegbert at gmail.com Have a great day! P.S. I actually heard from Kristen Marquardt this week! She and Daniel are now living in VA where Kristen is working for the Department of State, and Daniel is studying to take the CPA exam and working at an accounting firm. No kids yet.

SHOOT! I thought fishing for sharks was illegal - what happens when you accidentally get one?! And Mac and Cheese sounds REALLY good to me! Maybe I should start hanging out with Brock and Austin!!!

CHRISTY! I am excited you are coming in town. Please do the run with me!! No one wants to do the 10K. I'm sure I will totally suck, just to warn you but I just want someone to hang out with during the misery/fun. Let me know! I only have your gmail email address (I think you said before that you don't check it very often?) but I'll send you an email with my phone number. Let me know if you can find a sitter!

Becky said...

Loving those eyes! LOL! Yeah your going to have to keep the girls away in a few years! I want to see 27 Dresses really badly, so much that I almost went by myself the other day!
Yikes, sharks, I don't like the ocean enough to swim in it, I'm a scaredy cat!

Lance and Becky said...

How cute is he, that second picture with Brock and the pencil is so dang cute....he's going to be a charmer, that's for sure! What a handsome man! Rylie's 7 months, so we'll hook these two up down the road!

I can't stand it!!!! The wedding (although an insanely short engagement) seems so far away when i think about not seeing the gang until then.

I have always been afraid of the ocean. More of the currents than sharks. One year at New Port Beach there were jelly fish everywhere and I wouldn't go into the water. Brock is so cute. I love his eyes.

Brock is such a cute kid. I can't believe how fast time flies. Seems like yesterday we were at Lake Powell and you weren't even pregnant with him yet. Megan's right...the mac n cheese sounds delicious!

Elisha said...

Those are the sweetest pictures! What a ladies man! Watch out! Yeah, I love the ocean, but stories like that keep me on the sand!

SO cute! He totally looks like he's seducing the camera! Don't worry too much about the crawling thing. Enjoy it!! Love that your kiddos love mac & cheese. Mitchell hasn't ever liked that, weird kid! I thought that would be a family staple for sure!

Did you teach him that pose? He is so cute! That would keep me from swimming in the ocean. I have such a fear of sharks thanks to shark week on the discovery channel.

I love all three of those pictures. Austin looks so cute with that fishing pole and Brock is so cute. I can't believe he is 9 months!

A 4 foot shark! Scary, I don't think I would swim there either. I am really sad we aren't going to be in town when you come.
Hopefully next time. Have FUN FUN FUN.
