Lovin' Life!



Things are going really good here in the Brock house. Chris started work today after a nice month off, and we all have really enjoyed spending time together and goofing off, learning our new city. The weather has been fantasic - even the few rainy days here have been wonderful. It's that perfect time of year when you don't need the A/C or the heater really, it's just right outside. My favorite moment from this week was when Rylie finally said "mama" after months of "dada" and "baba". She is getting to that stage now where anything you touch she wants it (including the keyboard, making typing this while she's on my lap very difficult) and she's also starting to scream when you leave her sight. She still hasn't officially crawled yet, most people tell me to count my blessings and don't rush it because once she starts moving you can't stop her! She's a blast though, we love (almost) every second of it! I had an interview today for a graphic design position, which I'm finding out are pretty scarce around here right now. Although, I can't lie, I've absolutely relished staying at home and working part-time for my mom. It's been nice being with Rylie all day, I missed her so much working full-time - and where else could I take my baby to work with me besides my mom's house? We will see what happens! My goal is to try and get her scrapbook all caught up before I start working (haha, yeah right, I haven't even TOUCHED it yet!) One of the many goals on my list right now, after I get the laundry done, the dishes, clean the house, try and exercise, ugh... the list goes on and on. :)

After a couple busy weekends...

Time flies when you're having fun! That is definitely true in our house right now... we've totally been enjoying some time off, spending time with family and friends, and of course each other! Both Chris and I have some job employment in the works, but until then we are taking advantage of learning our new town and spending lazy days with Rylie. My mom, Rylie and I drove down to Albuquerque a couple weekends ago to attend my Uncle Ken's wedding. It was really fun and a beautiful wedding, and I of course relish any opportunity to dress my little princess up!

Then this last weekend, our awesome friends from Las Cruces drove up to visit! We had a blast hanging out, shopping, and having some much needed silly fun at Dave & Busters! We can't wait to hang out again - will mostly likely be our turn to drive down to Cruces!

On another note, Rylie is doing some cute things lately - one of which being sticking out her tongue at us! She's also grabbing at EVERYTHING in sight and trying to bite on it (darn those two top teeth... grrr... teething is not fun!) So here's Miss "I need a bib 24/7!"
