Meeting Baby Jackson!

This weekend we went down Florida to meet Matt and Laura's little guy, Jackson. He's only 2 weeks older than Olive so it was great fun to see all the cousins interact!

Here's a few pictures of the kiddies:

Rocco Ronaldinho

Who learned what "kick" means today? That's right, Rocco knows how to kick a ball when we ask him too, leaving a futbol loving daddy very happy!

Pasta! Pasta! Pasta!

My bambino is a true Italian. He loves his pasta, but also loves my Italian mama's homemade sauce. Even if he is tired, he continues on strong like any good Dego, because it tastes oh-so-good! We love that Rocco is a pasta machine!

Bear Down!

Sean and I went to the Bear's game when they came to town against the Broncos with some of our best friends. We had an awesome time! Tailgating, great weather, touchdowns, 50 yard line seats, breaking records, overtime.....what could be better?

Oh yea, the Bears winning and not turning the ball over would have been better.

Regardless, we had an awesome time! Thanks to Jerica and Pattie for babysitting Rocky all day!

Feeding the ducks at City Park

This morning we took Rocco to feed the ducks some leftover bread at the lagoon at City Park. It didn't take long for Rocco to catch on to what we were doing. He was pointing and saying "duh! duh! burr! burr!" for 'duck' and 'bird'

We had to high tail it out of there because the ducks started hissing and chasing us once we ran out of bread!

Bead Maze

He plays with this bead maze toy for 20-30 minutes at a time! He's so serious about his bead work! And as my mom and sister astutely pointed out, he's also so PROUD of himself!

Happy Birthday, Rocco!

Rocco had a wonderful birthday with family and friends! Yummy brunch at Devil's Food, lots of celebrating over good eats. Grandma and Papa spoiled him with wonderful gifts and a fancy dinner out to Linger. Aunt Amanda gave him a favorite Borho toy and lots of hugs and kisses. Cousin Ella kept a rigorous training schedule teaching Rocco to walk. And baby Kate? She's still unsure what she thinks of the big boy Rocco :)

After dinner, Auntie Nel hosted a small party for those who have loved Rocco so well in his first year at her bake shop. Everyone who was either at Rocco's birth or there within a couple hours, celebrated with cupcakes, coffee, and wonderful gifts! Rocky loved his jumbo cupcake! (pictures to come)

Rocco. You are such a sweet, smart, wonderful boy who we love so tenderly and marvel over each day! Happy Birthday, son! We love you!

Friends!


Rocco can't get enough of his friend Harper. He's quite taken with her, even if she is one year and one day older.

They like to do things like share juice .... and chase each other around.

Actually, he's given Harper two hugs so far! I've seen him give me, sean, and Pattie hugs voluntarily, but that's it!

Harper is one lucky gal!

Friends forever!
...or until they discover cooties!

Happy Halloween!

Roooooaaarrr!

We were able to snap this adorable picture of our little lion and Pattie on his first Halloween :)




It seems like only yesterday that October 31 was our due date, and here we are with an almost 1 year old in a sweet lion costume that he picked out at the store! Whew! A year goes by fast!

Happy Halloween!
