Mallory Update

Miss Mallory Brook
At a little over 8 months of age, Mallory weighs 20.5 lbs, she is 30.5 inches long!!!  She's has no other choice but to be TALL!!!  That's okay, I'm ready for my future WNBA/volleyball/swimmer!!!!!
She's not crawling yet, but scoots around on her belly, blips and turns, sits up with ease, and loves music.  Any time there is music playing, her arms go up and she is moving!!!  It's really more of a "bob" or bounce with arms up high, and legs moving too.  If she were a bird, she would have no problem taking flight!
She smiles, is very social, likes to watch and laugh at her brother, enjoys little afternoon cat naps with her daddy, loves to snuggle with me before going to bed, and when she does go to bed...she doesn't need to be rocked, but simply plays until she falls asleep.
I love holding her close and rubbing noses with her.  She thinks it's the funny!  She's ticklish, wants to be held a lot, and loves attention.  To be honest, I'm totally fine with spoiling her rotten!!!!

Play Time

Oh how I love the times I sneak up and catch Barrett and Mallory playing together.  Mally thinks her brother hung the moon!!!  I hope they continue to have this great relationship with one another for ever and ever!!!!





Family Time

My parents recently celebrated their 40th anniversary.  Brandi and I had a fun time planning their party.  We made a slide show of pictures, cooked a wonderful dinner, indulged in yummy "wedding" cake, opened presents and sent them away for a few nights to a nice resort on Lake Travis. 
Here's to ANOTHER 40 years Mom and Dad!





Family Pictures

We finally found a nice day to take family pictures and they turned out great!  Here are a few of my favorites...
