One Year Old!

Happy Birthday to Brock! We have done a lot of reflecting over the last several days. Playing the "A year ago at this time....my water broke, Grandparents got THE call, we were admiring our new baby boy, etc" game. We thought we couldn't be more blessed on the day of his birth, but as it turns out the blessings keep coming! We are so thankful for this happy, healthy, and growing baby - oops toddler! Brock had a wonderful birthday - love, cards, and presents have been arriving all week from neighbors, California, Alaska, Michigan, and even Guam. Nana J and Aunt Nikki are here and smothering Brock with love! I think it will be hard to get them on the plane home. Thank you everyone - Brock is so loved!

An update on Brock - he is happy and healthy, walking a lot, but has not given up crawling - talking a TON - in addition to many, many words he now makes sounds that go with dog, crash, airplane and a couple others. Oh and the cutest thing - when he drops something (which is usually on purpose), he says "Uh Oh". He loves to read books. It is really fun to read with him now because he points out and says all the words and sounds he knows. He is growing fast. I'll have his stats in a week when we go to his one year appointment, but I'm sure he is approaching 20lbs. He is a busy, goofy, funny boy! Still NO teeth! Do they make baby dentures?



A new car! Brock kept saying car, car! We had to park it next to him while we ate dinner. Thanks Grandma and Pa C.

Brock opened each gift and had to play with each gift before moving on to the next. Uncle Chad got him the General Lee car from Dukes of Hazard. Cory and Chad loved that show. Cory told me it was becuase of the car crashes, but didn't Daisy wear really short shorts...hmmm.

Brock loves his fun toys from Nana J and Nikki - they make lots of noise!

Smashing, I mean snuggling with his new doggy.


Brock started by putting one finger in his cake and tasting it, and then...

it went in by the handfuls until it was all gone. I was so glad it didn't make him sick!




Brock would dance and clap everytime we sang him Happy Birthday. He also clapped when he finished his cake!
