General
Seeing Brooks' personality develop is such a sweet experience. 90% of the time he is such a happy kid and is learning how to do new things every single day. He is independent- he'll play by himself or go off to explore, but still attached- he gets sad when I leave the room. He's so goofy and loves to laugh. I already see him doing things repeatedly if it'll make us laugh. When we go to a new place or someone's house he'll sit on my lap for about 10 minutes and observe before he wants to explore. He'll rarely cuddle but sometimes when he's teething or just woken up I can steal a few. 


Food & Sleep
He nurses 4 times a day (7am, 11am, 3pm, 7pm) and eats 3 meals a day plus a snack (or two). This kid can pound the food! He eats so much! I'm impressed and proud that he's a good eater, just like his parents. He goes through phases where he'll only eat something if I feed it to him, silly kid! I'm not really sure how or when to wean him. Everything has been happening pretty naturally so far and I'm hoping that'll just keep happening?


 He takes 2 naps and sleeps 11-12 hours at night. He still cries for 5 minutes every time I put him down but I can't blame him, playing is way more fun! He's really good at going to sleep and self soothing. The other night Dan and I were up with him from 1-3am which is RARE. Like I can't remember the last time I had to get up with him. Darn teeth!

We had a lot going on this weekend! Some good. Some bad. I woke up to this Friday the morning What a great way to start a Friday morning without work! I seriously have the kindest man ever. He's so thoughtful After he got out of class and before I had class we snuck in a last minute temple session . Who knew it would be so packed on a Friday mid day! I rushed (because I hate being late) but it was so worth it once you get there and just feel peace . That evening after classes and homework, we drove down to Idaho Falls for a family BBQ the evening before Logan and Amanda got married . The BBQ was great and I loved seeing all my family and meeting some of Amanda's family. I even got a picture with Sister Bullock :) All while this was happening my parents were supposed to be making the trip to IF and be there for the BBQ. I had heard briefly from my mom that Dad wasn't able to get off work and that they would be late. Then it got the point they wou

This is Important

So I've given this a lot of thought and with some advice from Dan the man, we've decided to go ahead and make our blog private from now on. This means that only those whose emails are on my readers list can view it. WHY Lately I've been thinking about the publicity and the openness of the internet and I don't want my security and my family's security to be a worry because the things I post on my blog. I realized that the reason I am blogging is; 1) For me as a journal and to record and read back on fun memories and 2) So family and friends can stay in contact and feel like we're apart of each other's lives even when we're far apart. Although the page views of all my Facebook friends and others reading my blog has been really nice (I'll admit, I like the numbers) I've realized that I enjoy some privacy more. SO WHAT DOES THAT MEAN? This means that if you would like to continue reading our blog that I am going to need your email address

  Love My boys! Nate's face! Brooks being silly Another round of sickness in our house. Brooks always seems to get a headache, spike a fever, pass out somewhere and wake up later feeling most of the way better. This time we ended up getting cold symptoms afterwards. When I got sick I was tested and whatever it is it's not covid. Dan got it last and was sick into February. It was lingering so he tested again and it was again negative. So whatever we had was mild, still not fun and stuck around forever. We have this cute bible book about Noah's ark. Carson starts looking at it and pointing to Noah says, "Santa Claus!" Oh. yes I can see how you think that haha. So we kept telling him no, it's Noah. He points to Noah's wife and says, "Mama!" hahaha so I'm either Noah's wife (they look very old in the book) or Mrs. Claus. Not sure whether to be offended or not haha! We sold our small freezer and upgraded to this beauty! I love it! I love being
