Do lady bugs bite?

"I know I am only four but I was learned this. Lady bugs bite but their mouths are so tiny that you can't feel it." Brock
Last summer I took Brock to one of the free activities at the library. It was a magician who talked about bugs and did some really fun tricks with bug related things. Brock remembered that the magician said that lady bugs bite. I thought it was so funny that he would bring this up so many months later.
So just remember when you have the urge to pick up one of those cute little bugs that it can bite you!

Preschool Grad!

Brock just had preschool graduation. It was so fun to go and watch his class sing all the songs they have been learning. Brock has learned so much from preschool and made so many friends. He will really miss Miss Janalynn and all the fun things they did. But in just a few short months he will start his new adventure in Kindergarten and he can hardly wait!

Happy Easter!

I found the boys Easter outfits about a month ago, I thought there won't be many times I can dress them to match so I just had to buy them. Luckily Duncan arrived befor Easter, I was not sure that he would when I bought them but I just had to have them.




You can see from the above that Duncan doesn't have a head fat enough to really "make" the outfit. We'll try again soon. Of course, if you look at the hat on his head, it doesn't look like we need to try again for 3 or 4 more years.

My little brother

Dear World,
I’m so excited for my new baby brother, Duncan Thomas. He showed up today; here I am holding him.


He’s so cool, he weighs 8 lbs 3 oz and is 20.5 inches long. That’s just a little smaller than I was.

I can’t wait to teach him so many new things. I’m going to learn how to feed him and burp him, then I'll teach him how to sit up, crawl and walk. When he gets older, I'll share my favorite things with him: How to play Star Wars and use a light saber, swim and play soccer. I’m pretty sure we’re gonna be best friends for our whole lives.

Also, a little more about my little brother's name. Thomas Holdaway is my Great Grandpa's name (my mom's mom's dad). He's such a wonderful Great Grandpa. He loves his family, has worked hard his whole life, and touches the lives of so many family and friends. I hope my little brother can always look up to him like I already do. Love you Grandpa Tom!

Love,

Brock

Star Wars and the Prego Waddle

Mom says to Brock "Would you do me a favor and go downstairs and get my green socks from the chair? I left them down there and it is hard for me to waddle down the stairs."
Brock says "Ha! I know, you waddle like C3PO"
Then he pretends to waddle his way down the stairs laughing. Leaving me upstairs laughing so hard I almost pee my pants. I love that kid!

Duncan's Birthdate

I visited the Dr. today and we set an offical date for the arrival of Duncan! He will be delivered via c section on April 7th! We can hardly wait!

31 Wks

Just thought I would share some of the fun pregnancy photos that we took. You need to click on the last photo to enlarge it so you can see the expression on Brock's face. It's the face he makes every time he feels the baby move.
