Dig Right In!

The other day at Grandma's house, Brock was getting a little impatient waiting for his lunch, so to distract him Grandma thought she'd let him play with an apple. Well.... when lunch was ready he didn't want me to take away that apple. He had already started chomping down on it and was actually eating it! It was quite interesting trying to get bites of food down him between bites of that apple.

11 months

It's hard to believe that in less than a month my little boy will be one year old! I can't believe how fast time flies! I can remember everything about the day he was born very vividly, maybe that's why it's so hard to think it was almost a year ago. His walking is getting quite good, he can actually power walk. He's very fast sometimes. His hair in the back is getting a little long, but you can't really tell since it curls up. In the bath though it looks like he has a mullet. He can even sing E-I-E-I-O with one of his toys. I went to the Dr. the other day and he was sitting in his stroller being as cute as ever and he started singing. The nurse was like, that sounds like E-I-E-I-O. I was like, Oh my goodness, it is! Other people can actually tell, not just my mommy ears! So proud.

Do I Really Need to Explain???

Here are just a few photos of why you cannot leave a 10 month old unsupervised...

On Halloween, he decided he better see if he could fit inside the bar stool. He got a little nervous when he wanted to get out.

Any guesses on what that unknown substance is around his little mouth???? If you guessed lint from the dryer give yourself a good pat on the back! I leave him alone while I do e-mail, he gets into paint. I bring him in here with me while I do e-mail and he gets in the garbage and eats dryer lint. Seriously, what am I going to do when there are two of them?????

A Harding Homecoming

This past weekend, Brock and I went down to Searcy with my mom and dad to see Aunt Ashley for Harding's Homecoming. We had a great time while we were there and got to see some familiar faces. Uncle Dustin and Stacy got to come down and we got to meet their little maltese poodle, Barley. She was so cute. Plus, I got to see Cori and Jason and their sweet girl, Rylee. I can't believe how grown up she's gotten since April when I saw her last! It was so good to see them, except it just made me miss them and Texas that much more. We went to see the football game where HU beat the Wonderboys of AR Tech. Then we had a little birthday party for me with cake and ice cream...YUM. That night, Mom, Dad, Ashley, and her friend Rachel, and I went to the musical, The Wizard of Oz. It was really good! Their special effects seem to get better and better every year! Uncle Dustin got stuck with babysitting duty, which was an adventure. It was such a great weekend! Brock has to be the BEST little traveler ever. The drive was far, but he was such a trooper. He didn't fuss once! How blessed am I?

Happy Halloween!

Brock spent his first Halloween as a little kangroo. We had both sets of grandparents over for dinner and to help us pass out candy. Who wouldn't want to spend time with the cutest little kangroo in the world? I think Buddy liked Brock's costume seeing as he kept trying to eat Brock's baby kangroo in his pouch.

10 Months Old

Brock is 10 months old and WALKING! It seems recently he has done so many new things. He's got 4 teeth up top and 4 on bottom. He is starting to dislike baby food more and more everyday. He's all about the grown-up food! I just can't believe how much he can get into. You have to keep your eye on that boy all the time! I went to check my e-mail the other day and while I was doing that, he managed to get into his room and find the paint that TJ had been using and was just having the best time splashing all around in it like it was finger paint. It's amazing he didn't eat it! It was all over his NEW outfit and let's just say the carpet didn't fare well at all. TJ & I's arms hurt from scrubbing. People say we should have taken pictures, but at the time, that was the LAST thing on our minds! It will definetly be a fond memory though! Plus we still have the yellow tinged carpet as a constant reminder.
