Tofu

He likes it! He really likes it!

As Grandad says, it looks like someone laced the stuff with dynamite before giving it to him... Oh well. Messy but healthy.

Swimming at Uncle Todd's

Thank you Uncle Todd and Aunt Faina for letting me come swim at your house. When can I come back?

New Toy

Mommy got B a new toy to practice walking. (Walking? Yes, walking.) He is still a ways away, but getting closer every day.

July 4th in Kerrville

What a fun and busy weekend we had in Kerrville for the 4th.

We went for lots of walks around the house















We visited Grandpa in his office and crawled all around
















We had a fish fry, and Pop and Uncle Justin fried up everything in sight...















... while Momma K snuggled with B








B spent a lot of time playing with his toys in the kitchen











He also got to see lots of friends





The Jacksons









and the Clyburns!





We got to go swimming every day











And then John flew us home!





(Pop would like Mommy to apologize for not taking off the "Pooper" bib before taking the photo. She's all class, folks.)




Some pictures of Mommy and her boy in Kerrville:

While the Cat's Away...

Pop went out of town the last weekend in June with Uncle Todd and Austin, so Mommy and B had fun at home. Aunt Sarah came for a visit, and so did Susan and Dirk!







Tickling the ivories with Aunt Sarah











All smiles (finally!) for Susan and Dirk

Aunt Sarah brought this cool hat for Pop, but we didn't think he'd mind sharing...

B and His Pop

A couple sweet photos of my fellas.

Father's Day Weekend

We had a busy and wonderful Father's Day weekend. Brooks celebrated it by saying "Mama" for the first time. :)

Other fun activities:

Bubbles in the driveway with Gram, Pop and Marcellus


















Playing with the poochies








Swimming






Father's Day brunch
(with the two best dads around!)









Cheering on the US Men's team to a victory!

What a weekend!

Clapping

Brooks is really having fun these days with clapping. On occasion, if you ask him to show you how to clap, he'll actually do it! (So smart for under 9 months old!) He is also a sucker for clapping if you say, "Good job!" And then there's always plenty of clapping just for the sake of clapping.

Gone to Santa Fe

The whole fam went on a trip to Santa Fe to visit Grandpa and Momma K. Brooks had a great time in the big plane and was a great traveler. He sure does take it easy on Mommy and Pop!



Our Fly Guy in the airport on the way to Santa Fe






Mealtime was an adventure in our new highchair











We played inside but also spent a lot of time enjoying the Santa Fe weather.







After a great trip, Pop and B shared the view on our way home
