Feel better bud!

Sorry I haven't updated in a while. Brock came down with a cold over the weekend so I've been busy sucking boogers out of his nose :-( He doesn't seem so congested now, which is good, but he's got a nasty cough that is killing me! So hopefully he starts feeling better soon!

I forgot to post his 4 month stats last week:

Height: 26 inches (95%)
Weight: 14lbs (40%)

Poor guy is gonna be tall & skinny! We ended up having to change his formula too to a soy-based one. The Dr. thinks his eczema is related to a dairy protein allergy. I'm nursing, so he only gets formula when someone is watching him or if he's still hungry after I nurse him. Other than that though, the Dr. feels that he is developing very well :-)

Oh! He finally found his feet the other day! Now he won't let go of his toes :-) Its so cute!

Ok, hopefully I can update again soon!

4 months old!!

Brock turned 4 months old on Valentine's day!


Here are a few pictures from the weekend. 1st we went to the Detroit Science Center and spent a good chunk of our day there. You all know how big of a TV junkie Brock is... well imagine how excited he was to experience his first IMAX Dome theater movie of the Deep Sea! He LOVED it!!

"Give a dog a pound Ma! Science ROCKS!"

After that, the three of us spent the night at the Inn on Ferry Street. Ferry Street is in Midtown and is a street lined with 1800's style mansions. Over time these mansions have been renovated and turned into a hotel.

So cute!

HE DID IT!!!!!

Brock was trying soooo hard all day to roll over from his back to his belly. I was trying to post a video earlier today of his efforts, but I couldn't get it to load. Anyway, he did it!!!! (don't mind my squealing - I was a little excited!!) Here he is:

Spike kept taping and it looks like we've got a rollie pollie! Brock was having so much fun!

Almost 4 months!

Since I've been horrible at blogging this month, here are some pictures of Brock from his 3rd month of life. Our little man will be 4 months next Saturday, the 14th!Here's a cute video of my mom making Brock laugh the other day:



I think his days in the swing are coming to an end...





I don't know what my mom said, but Brock found it to be pretty hilarious!


I went to go put Brock down for a nap in his playpen, and I saw that the cat had taken up residency in it! Don't worry, I took the cat out right after I took this picture

Like father, like son!

This is totally a tease post, but I found a bunch of Spike's baby pictures today and OH.MY.GOD!!!!! Brock is the SPITTING image of his father!! I will try to scan the pictures and get them on here soon. I have a baptism class to go to tonight and about 4 loads of laundry to fold when I get home. So maybe tomorrow??

Other than that, things are going great! I only have 6 more pounds of baby weight to lose, and I'm starting Weight Watchers again this weekend!

Brock still hasn't rolled over from his back to his belly, but he's close! He loves sucking on his fingers now...nasty! LOL. He's so big. I have to get some new pictures up of him! I'm a slacker :-)
