Thankful for the rain!






We have had some crazy rain storms this past week, pretty unusual amounts of rain for what we have seen of Nevada so far. The picture of the rain is our street almost turned into a river, but I am thankful for the rain because it often brings rainbows, symbols of God's promises. I am so thankful that I can trust and have faith that God's plans are best for our life. We may not understand what is going on or why things are going the way they are in life, but God ultimately has control and I am so grateful to have an amazing God to trust in.

Grandma, Grandpa and Great Aunt Cindy come to Visit!!!











This month Grandma and Grandpa Harris came to visit us with Great Aunt Cindy. We had an enjoyable time- mom especially because she got to take a few extra naps!! We spent some time up at Lake Tahoe, Virgina City, and Reno. As you can see in the pics Grandpa and Daddy played some games in the Circus Circus kid zone and won enough tickets for 6 Hot Wheels cars and a stuffed dog for Brock. Mom and Dad played a horse race game and each won Brock a stuffed bear/dog- we're not quite sure what to call it even though they are cute. Needless to say he came out very spoiled, and we had fun in the process. Other than that this month has pretty much just been working for us.

We made it, I think!

I think we made it through Brock's first infection of some sort, what exactly was causing it we're not sure, but he seems to be doing better after two shots of Rocephin. He puzzled the doctor, which is frusterating as a mother to have them tell you, "We're not exactly sure what is causing the WBC of 33 and the fevers up to 103." The good thing is he has been fever free now for approx 24 hours, yeah! I pray he stays better! Daddy managed to catch a few cute pictures even though he wasn't feeling well.

Playing hide and seek!

So last night I was getting ready for bed and Tyson comes in and says "You have got to come look and see what your son is doing!" I went into the living room where I had left him playing and didn't see him, but I saw things moving. He had pulled the tummy time play mat up over him and you could just hear giggles and squeals of happiness coming from underneath. I quickly grabbed the camera to try to catch this moment and these are the looks he gave me as I asked him what he was doing. Priceless!



Just being cute!



Our little big boy!

6 mo old Dr. appt

So we have a big little boy. At 6 months old Brock now weighs 20 lbs 3 oz, and is 29 1/2 inches long. He fell to the 88th percentile for weight, but is in the 99th percentile for height. He has broken one tooth through and is working on another. Boy, I wish they came in faster. We'll make it through though. Otherwise things are going fairly well. I will get more pictures up when I have a little more time.
