Fall is in the air

Pumpkin Patch in Wimberly

Brock turned 5 months this past month and celebrated his first Holiday, Halloween. He is topping the scales at 18lbs. 9oz as of two weeks ago, and has even starting to sit on his own. He cant quite do it all by himself, but if he leans forward he can hold himself upright for a minute or so. Brock is rolling around all over the place, can walk in his new walker, and LOVES to talk. He has even started growling like a lion, it is quite funny to listen to him carry on with himself. I am amazed at how quickly he is developing and how he seems to do something new every day. He is starting to develop quite a little personality and is very interested in your every move. He is quite the flirt with his big blue eyes, long eye lashes and sweet smile. He certainly isn't shy when it comes to the ladies. :-) Brock was a lion for Halloween. I am fully aware that he is going to hate me when he is older and sees his first Halloween costume, but I don't care, it was so fun dressing him up. Secretly and I know he liked it too :-) Starting about 3 weeks ago, Brock had his first meal. He is eating whole grain rice cereal once a day and loves it! He is transitioning to solids quite well and eats from a spoon like a champ. He literally opened his mouth like a baby bird on the second bite. You would have thought he had been eating off a spoon for months! I am in the process of getting a few books, and the equipment necessary, to start making Brock's baby food. I have decided I am going to make most of his baby food and will hopefully start giving him some of the Stage 1 foods here in the next week or so.

I will leave you with a few pictures of what we have been up to the past month. I hope all is well with everyone and I am SO excited to keeping everyone up to date with new posts over the next couple months. Celebrating the Holidays with a new baby is very exciting for all of us!
