Rocky 3 months in the bath

A day away from 3 months....

Can you believe that my little blue eyed baby is a day away from 3 months! neither can I so much has happen this last month it makes me tear to think that the rest goes by just as fast, and at a blink of an eye I will be sending him off on a mission...like ben....

I finally got it on video my beautiful boy rolling over. Its not the best he's ever done...that big head got in he way but none the less it shows the roll.




then afterward he was modeling for me and I snapped this cute picture :)



Then Sunday was rocky's blessing and here is my handsome men posing for the camera. as we race to church, beckett also spoke that day and did an amazing job.



Here is Rocky's blessing...

Beckett was assisted by Randy Swapp, Jack Porter, Ben Swapp, Dennis Glenn (Bishop), Ed Fuller, Jim Ledbetter, and Maruy Crandall

Our Heavenly Father, by the power of the Melchizedek Priesthood which we hold, we bring this baby before Thee to give him a name and a blessing. The name that he shall be known by is Rockwell James Nodal.

Rocky, we bless you that you will grow in health and strength, that you will be curious about the world around you, and that you will learn the things you need to know to be successful in this life.

We bless you that you will learn to follow the example of the faithful priesthood holders that stand around you and follow in their footsteps and share Christ’s message with those in need. We bless you that you will go forth at the proper time to serve the mission that Heavenly Father prepares you for.

We bless you throughout your days of schooling that you will be able to learn the things you need to do to support your family and to find the happy path that you can follow in life.

We bless you that you will have the spiritual strength to do what is right and to be an example to those around you. We bless you with all other things you may be in need of at this time, and we do so in the name of Jesus Christ, Amen.

Now we just wait on Ben's Mission call about 1 more week ahhhh!!!...it makes me sad just thinking about it.

Vote for my baby as cutiest!

Roll over

Rocky rolled over on saturday but i haven't been able to catch him on video. I think it makes him nervous ;) but this is him attempting to this morning. At 2 months he is holding his head up so good. He is becoming quite the handsome fellow I think.

The last few weeks!

we have been very busy the last couple of weekends, July 4th weekend we went to my grandparents house in Cimarron. We had lots of fun we went to there rodeo, and watched there fireworks. We went to the best restaurant up there. I don't remember the name but I had the best piece of steak I've ever had!!

Then last weekend of Friday we played scrabble with papa jim and colene and had the absolute best time! We always enjoy our friday nights with them. they love us so much and we try to give back to them as best we can. this coming friday I think we are going to go to the zoo music. We will for sure have a good time!!



Then saturday we went to Avery Crandalls birthday party and we had a great time. I love being friends with Maury and Connie!



Thats all for now hopefully next time I'll have more pictures but unitl then. These will have to do....

time flies! part 2

I cannot believe how much love you can have for somethings so small. I love my son with all my heart and more then I thought possible to love. It brings everything in your life closer together. he spends a lot of time with nan and mamy his grandmas and spends the mornings with dad while I am away at work, I am able to bring him to work on days that I need to and that has made the transition really great! I cannot believe he is almost 8 weeks old.

Here are some pictures of him these last few weeks since I've been really awful at updating this.

p.s. Britta I am so sorry I was able to see you when you came into town, next time you come back to abq, we should get together and have lunch or we could have a double dinner with you and shay. I hope you had a good time though.


Beckett being such an amazing dad!

time flies!

I can't find my camera cord so I will just write a quick note:

He is getting so big! Friday will be 8 weeks! He is getting about 6oz a feeding now and is sleeping about 5hours straight at night, IN HIS CRIB! I am so thankful he is not in our bed anymore, that was rough.

I started work again and it has been really good, when I need I bring rocky and he sleeps in his car seat and I work work work til its time to go.

He will be blessed on the 5th of July. I cannot wait it will be a wonderful experience for us all.

until I get more pictures, this is all.
