Brock is getting bigger by the minute. He is now up to drinking 3 oz, and it still seems like that is not enough. He loves to eat.




My cousin Kelly made the beanie for Brock. I just love it. He looks so cute. You could just eat'em up.

SLEEP, SLEEP, & MORE SLEEP

One of Brock's favorite things to do is sleep. While he sleeps he makes the cutest little faces. He is going to have one cute smile. All the girls are going to fall head-over-heels for that smile.

He could pretty much fall asleep anywhere.


He Loves taking a nap with is DAD.

BATH-TIME

Brock is finally enjoying his bath time. He is so cute when I put him in the bath. He is crying at first, but as soon has he hits the water he is so happy.

Brock has really been changing these past couple of weeks. He is so curious with what he is looking at. He also holds his head up so good. He is going to be one strong boy. It is so fun to see his progress each week. Here is a sneak-peek.

We are HOME! Sorry it has taken so long for us to post. We just got our Internet hooked up. Well, we made it. After a 12 hour drive and getting pulled over by a highway patrol. (F.Y.I. -the officer let us off the hook) We made it home safe and sound on Wednesday, the 23rd at about 6:00 p.m. We were welcomed home, by our excited families to meet Brock for the first time.
Brock's new aunts, uncles & cousins could hardly wait to see him. They all gathered around to get a closer peak at him.
This is Brocks cousin Bryson, he is 10 months old. He is so excited to have a cousin his age.
This is Brock on the quilt Aunt Bethany made for him. And boy does he love it.

BROCK IS 1 WEEK OLD


Brock loves to be swaddled. He totally goes into a trance. My brother and his wife found this DVD called-"The Happiest Baby On The Block" and they swore by it. It explains soothing techniques that infants love that send them in a zone to quite them down. When my sister Erin adopted Bryson she tried it with him and it worked. So I tried it. And Brock loves it. It really works!

SAYING GOOD-BYE

Last night we took Heather & Aiden out to dinner at Famous Dave's. Boy was is delicious! We had a great time.

This is Aiden's first time eating a rib, thanks to Randy. He loved it. Aiden wasn't very happy when we took it away.


After dinner we went back to Heathers home to say good-bye to her & her family. Grandma Gossett saying her good-bye to Brock.


Rachel & Randy showing our Thanks & Love to Heather for her amazing gift she has given to us. Words can't even begin to express our love to Heather & David. They truly answered our prayers. We became parents to a beautiful little boy. This is a great strength in our lives, for them to listen to the spirit & follow the promptings of the their hearts. THANK YOU & we LOVE you both.

BROCK MEETS HIS COUSINS

Tani , Kiki, & Brock. Tani was so excited to meet his new cousin Brock. Tani & Kiki live in Tucson, Arizona where we adopted Brock.

Tani wanted to hold Brock for the longest time. He was so sweet to give him a kiss.


Tani was amazed how little Brock is. We think Tani loves Brock, & can't wait for him to grow so they can play together.


We love this picture. Tani would have held him forever but Brock had a little accident. I guess the diaper was to loose because he whizzed all over Tani.
