Pin Impressions

A sweet little boy gave us this toy at a garage sale the other day. The boy was about 9 years old. He was playing with the toy, and Brock asked for a turn. The boy gave the toy to Brock. A few minutes later, he asked us if we were going to buy it. I said no and we gave it back to him so he could buy it and take it home. Brock gave the toy back to the boy nicely. On our way out, Brock told me he wanted that toy. The boy overheard him. The boy took the toy all the way to his car and then turned around and came back to us and told Brock he could have the toy instead. Melt my heart.  

Making Tacos

Dinner can be a challenge at times. Brock loves to play and it's usually hard to get him to come to the table. I thought maybe if we could get him involved in preparing the food, he might have more of a vested interest in eating it. So we did a taco bar and let him make all of our tacos. It worked! And he's pretty good at it :)

Who Let the Dogs Out?

This is one of my favorite moments in a long time. We attracted a few crowds and amused quite a few Walmart employees. These toy dogs were dancing and singing, "Who let the Dogs Out". Perfection.

Vacuuming the Car

Vacuuming the car...it's not what you think.

Aaaaaaaaaaaaah Waterfall

Here's Brock at the activity pool getting some of the yells out of his system. There's a little waterfall that the noise bounces off of...pretty neat discovery :)

Also, Happy Birthday, Grandpa Tom!! We love you!!!

Playing with Caterpillars

We were exploring outside one day and found lots of caterpillars. Here he is playing with them :)

Diving Board

Brock discovered the fun of the diving board the other day. Here are a few videos of him in action. He definitely abandoned all his pre-school peers in the shallow end in favor of hanging out with the big kids. I love my fearless little boy :)

Florida frogs quack

Being from the Northwest, I was very confused when I moved to Florida and learned that the quacking noises I hear outside at night are not ducks but are actually frogs. What??!! Brock is coming to terms with this confusing truth as well.  

Spidey Slippers

He was so excited to get these slippers! This boy loves Spider Man.

Blowing up a Balloon

We've been buying decorations for Brock's birthday party coming up. He really wants to blow up this balloon...
