Brock Walking!

Brock is now 11 months! Wow the time has flown, he is walking a lot more now. He has been taking steps for 3 weeks, but now he can go about 6 steps. He is still much, much faster crawling and he knows that...so if he really wants something he drops to his hands and knees and cruises over.

Brock still plays with his tongue all the time, he clicks it and makes funny noises with it. The doctor always laughs when she tries to get a tongue depressor in his mouth, he can wrap his tongue around anything.

Check out this form, bent knee and all.

He loves to suck on the faucet from his kitchen set.

The mind of a 5 year old

Last week I needed to get the kids out of school early to get my sister to the airport on time. Calee was waiting for me in the office when I came, but they don't let Kindergarten kids out until the parent is in the office then they call them over the intercom system. In the office I heard the secretary page Gavin's class room, "Mrs. Schrieber, I need Gavin for dismissal in the office". I looked out the door and saw Gavin running as fast as he could. Now back in my elementary days we were not allowed to run in the halls of the school, so I questioned Gavin..."Gavin, why are you running in the school?" Gavin's answer,"Because the secretary said 'I need Gavin for this missile in the office'". Without questioning why he was suppose to be a missile, Gavin grabbed his books threw them in his book bag, and ran to the office like a missile. I love being a Mom where else can you get this kind of comedy?

Calee's baptism day!

Sunday, December 9, 2007 Calee was baptized. We are so very proud of her and her decision at this time in her life. We had a very special day as a family and we will treasure the feelings that we felt forever.

Santa!

This is Brock's first time on Santa's lap, Calee and Gavin are old pros at this. Santa came to our Ward Christmas party, and all Brock would do was stare at him.


Brock didn't cry, but wouldn't look at the camera for the picture I wanted.

Still keeping an eye on the guy with a beard.

Yep, that man is still here.

Field Trip with Gavin

Since my Mom and Dad have been here visiting I have been able to do more activities with the kids at school, while they stay home and watch Brock. Wednesday I was able to go be a mystery reader (surprise Gavin and read a story to his class), then I was able to eat lunch with Calee at school on her birthday. Yesterday I went to Ukrops (the grocery store) with Gavin's Kindergarten class on a field trip. Thanks Mom and Dad!

Inside the freezer. And yes it was FREEZING!!!

Staying cool.

Calee's 8th birthday with family

Calee celebrated her 8th birthday on Dec. 5, 2007. We can't believe our little girl is 8 years old. We are so proud of her and the young lady she is becoming.

Calee's 8th birthday party with friends

Calee had her birthday party with friends at "Pump it Up" this past Saturday. The kids had a great time! It was so fun to see her and her friends have so much fun!
