Ryan's most favorite place...

On Saturday we made a last minute decision and went to Lawrence for the KU vs. Ohio St. game.  I'm so glad we made the quick trip because it was a great game and we were able to see Ryan's best bud Tyson and his beautiful wife, Christine!

The Brockus Family Comes to Wichita

Along with the Wildcats coming to Wichita the Brockus' decided to make the trek south too!  We had so much fun going to the game, watching the boys play, chatting about "parent things," taking them to some favorite spots in the ta and just having FUN!

Why the sad face, G?
Happy boy at the game!  He did so awesome at the game even though we could barely see the ball...yes, that is the wall....we were about 5 rows from the top....that's the last time Ryan buys the tickets for a K-State game :).
The boys at halftime...just wondering aimlessly around.
Wildcat hooties!
My how things have changed...obviously for the better...look how cute those little boys are...the big boys are pretty cute too :)!
Best buds!
Waiting for a little push.
Vroom vroom!
Breakfast at Jeanne's!  The boys chompin on some grahams while they wait for their Mickey Mouse pancakes.
Plotting their next move.
And that's where my pictures end...shoot!  I'll have to see if I can't scrounge up some more from our fun filled weekend!

G is 14 months & Christmas Pics!!

Wow! I can't believe G is 14 months...where is the time going and where is my baby going???  He is turning into such an amazing and lovable little boy and we just can't get enough of him.  Here are some things I have written down since he turned 1 (since I missed the 13 month update) PLUS our Christmas pics that the incredibly talented Ali Moore took for us!  I can't tell you how much I love working with Ali and also having her for a friend...a very very talented and creative friend who captured some amazing pictures of my baby...I mean toddler.
Greyson you are WALKING!!  We thought you would be an early walker since you were taking steps (with our hands) since 9 months but I think you started using our hands as a crutch  and had a hard time letting go.  You were taking a step by yourself at your 1 year birthday but you weren't totally walking until the beginning of November...13 months.  You love your new found independence (we do too...our backs were tweaked from holding your hand all.the.time)!!!  And you are officially into everything!!
 You are such a happy and social little boy.  You love seeing other kids and you will say hi to just about anyone.  You are a little ham...playing hide and seek is your favorite and you will sometimes play it with strangers in restaurants. 
 You love to talk and hum...you are constantly making noise!!  Your words include: mama, ball, Gus, book,  Ho ho ho, dada and dog.  You can moo like a cow, pant like Gus, wave, dance and do touchdown. You can sign for milk.  When we ask how old you are you put your little index finger in the air for 1!  You love to blow kisses!!  When we ask where you tummy is you pull up your shirt and point to it!!  
You LOVE to play with your toy balls!  That is the first thing you grab and say when you wake up!  You also love to read your books.  Sometimes I walk into your room or the living room when your being really quiet and you are sitting there reading a book!  So sweet!
You are wearing  size 18 month and 18-24 month clothes and size 4 diapers.  You sleep from about 7:30pm to 6:30am and take two 1 1/2 hour naps a day...morning and afternoon.  You eat 3 meals and day and have about 2 snacks and you still have about 3 sippy cups of milk a day.  Your favorite food right now is Greek yogurt!
So ornery!!
G, you are the love of our lives and we love you more than you will ever know!!
xoxo,
mommy and daddy

Guess who's back?!?!?!

Hello blogging world...oh how I've missed you! I have been thinking and dreading this moment...trying to catch up with everyone and then try to catch everyone up on us! I got so far behind that I would get anxiety just looking at everyone else's blogs so I just stopped signing into blogger b/c it would stress me out.  The whole purpose of me starting this blog was for Greyson and to document his life (and for the grandparents and far away aunt and uncles) so I am going to try my hardest to catch back up!  I'm going to start with his 1st birthday (it doesn't sound as scary as July) and work up til now and then go back and fill in the blanks later!  Here we go!!!

Santa's little helper!

The boys joined me for some Christmas shopping...G loved the escalators and the toy section!!

Ho Ho Ho



In preparation for Christmas my parents taught Greyson "ho ho ho" and it is the cutest thing ever...esp. when he purses his lips together!  This is my first attempt to include a video...we'll see how it goes!
