Locked out!

Today was a beautiful day, so about 2:00 we decided to head out and take a walk. Mom pushed Brock in the stroller and Tyler pushed the other little stroller. About halfway around the block Brock started to fuss and Tyler decided he wanted to ride in the stroller instead of push, so Sheree figured out how to push 2 strollers at once. Yep we need a double stroller...any ideas where to get a good one? Then we got to our street again and Tyler got out to run home. Sheree stopped to show the neighbor Brock while Tyler asked for the garage door opener which mom gave him. Tyler proceeded to open the garage and get his bike out and who knows what else. Then Sheree and Brock decided to go in but guess what!? The garage door was open, but the door going into the house was locked! We had no house key, car keys or a cell phone! Just as Sheree was walking out the garage the Hawkers drove by so she flagged them down and used their phone to call Ryan to come save us but guess what!? Ryan didn't have a house key! The only person who did that was close was Sheree's sister Amber who is going to BYU in Provo, which is a good hour away. So Ryan called her and her husband Jake had class in Salt Lake on Tuesday nights so they were getting ready to head up there and then Amber was kind enough to come up and let us in our house! While we waited we had fun hanging out with our favorite neighbors, so thanks John & Sheri! Ryan even left work to pick Riley up from school and to get diapers and wipes cause of course Brock had a poopy diaper! So hos did we get locked out? Well Tyler's new favorite activity is to shut and lock doors so either when we left or while Sheree was talking to the neighbor Tyler chose to lock the door. So we have learned to always take a key! Thanks Tyler for all the excitement today!

1 month!



So Brock is now a month old! In some ways the time has flown by and other ways it has gone super slow! For the most part, I have enjoyed being home with the boys. Tyler has been a challenge though and wants me 90% of the time and it's the worst when I am feeding Brock. Brock is sleepy the most during the evening and then wakes up right when it is time to go to bed. Lately, he has given us about a 5 hour stretch so that has been nice. He does tilt his head to his left, just like Riley did, but now we are more aware of it and are doing the exercises to stretch his neck, so hopefully we won't need physical therapy. The other good thing is that his head shape isn't off like Riley's was so once he can hold his head up, I think we'll be set! At his 2 week appt he weighed 7 lbs 11 oz so not sure what he weighs now, but he is getting bigger!

Riley has been having great days at school in which we are grateful! We were really worried that we were going to have a relapse with his behavior problems when Brock was born, but we have had very little problems. He has loved playing with his neighborhood friends lately now that the days are getting longer and the weather warmer. We are grateful for good neighbor boys that he can play with. He even came home last week and did a page of homework each day without complaining and had it all done before the weekend so we didn't have to worry about it. He sure is growing up and maturing.

We are blessing Brock on March 14 for any who want to come. Church is at 12:30.

Little Angels Photography

We took the boys in to Little Angels Photography and got some great pictures! Unfortunately, Brock was awake the whole time!
