Happy Halloween

This is our cute little "COMMUNITY DOOOGGG!" (inside Peterson joke)
On our way to collect our treats downtown

"hey this bucket is empty"

First time trick-or-treating!

Enjoying the splendors

Brooks and Gav were enjoying their ride together in the wagon....until Gav bit Brooks, that little stinker! hah

Cutest little skunk I've ever seen, doesn't smell too bad either.


Ward Halloween Party
......we're sports fans enjoying a hotdog at the stadium (in case that needed explaining)

That's one happy dog!

Friends and Pumpkins

So I put Cohen in the high chair for snack time and I turned my back to do something and Brooks was on his tip-toes stealing cheerios from him! I thought it was so funny and cute so I ran to grab my camera.... and here they are munchin away together!
Here they are up to no good messing with the pots and pans, after a while I stopped trying to get them to play with toys and just let them have at it.

Here we are on our hay ride, headed out to pick our pumpkins, it was really bumpy and Brooks would give a little giggle every once in a while.


This was my attempt at getting a cute fall picture, he was not into smiling that day.

Here we are with OUR pumpkin....it spoke to us from across the field and it is perfect!
(by the way my arms are killing me- I didn't really think about how I was going to carry a nearly 20 pound boy and an 8 pound pumpkin....and my 10 pound purse....all at once, yikes!)
Kaycee and her cute boys

one more attempt....not going to happen mom, give it up.

Let's just be honest-

I had to change the name of the blog because we all know that no-one really cares what Stephen and I are doing, it really is ALL About Brooksie Bob!
and we wouldn't have it any other way.

I finally got a good picture of his teefers! (above)
Everyone has to have a picture of themselves in a box when they're little, (unwritten law I'm sure of it).


Yep that's me in all my bald glory (above).

Rubber Ducky your'e the one....

....you make Bath Time SO much FUN!



Brooks loves to splish splash in his ducky tub, it even quacks when you squeeze its beak.
He can't get enough bath time, sometimes he'll crawl into the bathroom and peak over the tub to say Hi to ducky and then he gets upset when I pick him up and he doesn't get to take a bath.

Hanging with some good friends!

Today I went to see my good friend Martha.....she gave me a great pork loin recipe that I can't wait to try!

This is totally what mine is going to look like, maybe better.

I also hung out with my good friend Kelli, haven't seen her in years and it was fun to catch up.

My friend Marc also stopped by. He showed us some creepy crawlers and told us some fun animal facts- that guy is so smart and man does he love his turtle neck layering.

Martha is really nice, she has some skinny stems, and she loves her some cardigan too!!


We all had a great time....no white wine needed! hah
P.S. You HAVE to watch Martha on WEDNESDAY- OCTOBER 28th and look for us in the front row!!

This is the super-freakin-cute-adorable face that melts my heart everyday....I mean how can anyone be upset when this little guy clings to your leg and looks up at you with these baby brownish greenish eyes, heart=mush. LOVE HIM!



Thanks for the cool brown town suit aunt Nikki and uncle Spence!

Yep, I pulled myself up on this table all by myself. I'm a super smart big boy now.

A work in progress

These were taken in OUR back-yard!
Brooks is 8 months old now, time is just flying by. He is crawling and pulling himself up on everything, and you can't see them in these pictures but he has two bottom teeth and he's working on more.

This is our little kitchen, slightly bigger than our last place, but NO dishwasher- but it's not that bad really.

Brooks' room- also doubles as the guest room.

Picture board I made with my mom- we decorated his room with a cars, trucks, planes theme in blue, green and brown. I couldn't find ANY crib bedding with turquoise in it so I had to scratch that idea.


We snagged this crib for FREE off of Craig'slist- it's a beautiful thing!

Our green bathroom.
Luckily I found some really great towels at HomeGoods that help to modernize the 70's vibe a little.


Our new black and white bedding with green accents. Our bedroom is really big- can't tell from this picture, but it makes our bed look small.

The living room- also doubles as our office and play room. Nothing on the walls yet so it feels a little bare at the moment. But all in all we really love our new place....except for the elephants that live upstairs- but we'll get used to that right?
Hope you'll come visit and see it for yourself!
