Southbound I35 and More

Happy Friday to All!  Let's see I have some catching up to do....

Last week Brock, Gigi and I made the trek down Southbound I35 so Brock could meet some of his relatives including one of his Great Grandmas.  She is 89 years old and still a dynamite domino player!  She gave us a tour of her garden/plants and even gave us some plants for our new house considering we are completely redoing the landscaping eventually (this is low on the priority list!).  Anyways, Brock did well during the car ride as long as we were moving.  We stopped to pick up bbq on the way down and then stopped to get kolaches on the way back;  he screamed bloody murder both times.  I was pretty sure someone was going to call CPS and report my license plate number.  Ha!  Now I am one of those people that stops way before the line at a red light just so I can slowly inch forward and fool Brock into thinking we are still moving down the road.  Oh the things we do for a little peace and quiet....

Last week was also end of Spring busy season for my work friends.  I am glad April 15th is here and gone for their sake!  I sure did not miss the long hours of tax season!

So, this past week we crossed the six week mark.  Brock is growing, growing, growing....  He is so much more alert now and sleeps a lot less during the day.  I come up with things to keep him entertained and his little mind learning-  daily walks to the park, playtime on his activity mat, reading to him, we even two-stepped around the house the other day.  I love how I can be gone for a couple of hours to run errands (aka get out of the house!), come back and say "hi baby!" and get the biggest smile in return.  He knows who is Mommy is...it melts my heart!

Here are some pics of the little stinker:
