New Braunfels and 4th of July

We spent a very relaxing week in New Braunfels with Grandma, Grandpa and Brandon over the 4th of July.  We enjoyed the pool(s), went for walks, fed the deer, attended a 4th of July Parade, watched fireworks, rode a miniature train, had a picnic, visited the San Antonio Zoo and much more!  It was a wonderful getaway!  Many thanks to Grandma and Grandpa for letting us crash their house for the week.  By the end of our stay Brandon and Brock were picking on each other like brothers.
Happy 4th of July!  At the parade...

Fire truck!  Brock loves trucks!

Helping Grandpa haul rocks away.

Brock loved being his helper!

Feeding the deer.  We did this several times each day!

Miniature train at Landa Park


We told the conductor that Brock loves trains, so he let him ride up front!

The San Antonio Zoo

Monkeys watching the monkeys...





They have large walkingstick insects!

I am pretty sure Brandon and I were watching Family Feud here.

This and That

I have so many little things to catch you up on....

Our little guy is a talker.  It is amazing how much his vocabulary has increased over the last several months.  He is even funnier than ever....our little comedian.  His favorite show is now Mickey Mouse Clubhouse and he loves to say, "Mishka Mushka Mickey Mouse!"  He is still a good eater and LOVES cheese, blueberries and ICE CREAM (not together!).  He is demanding independence and we often hear, "let me do it all by myself!"  Well, they say, a picture is worth a thousand words, so here goes it....

Loves the park

Our first garden has been successful.  Daddy went overboard planting....we have those pictured and several different tomatoes, radish, peppers, attempted lettuce and spinach, etc.  Brock loves picking the veggies!

First medal received at gymnastics!

Must help Daddy in the yard!  Ms L says that Brock is always looking for a task and that is the truth.  I suppose because Mommy and Daddy are always busy doing something!  I am pretty sure this little guy sold the house next door that day.  The woman and her daughter could not get enough of him!

Good ole Chestnut!

Likes to wear his towel just like Daddy...
Blue Eyes...
I caught this little guy walking around the house in Daddy's boots.  This was not posed!
