Aloooooohhhaaaa!

We haven't done anything exciting or noteworthy in the past 3 months so we haven't had to update Roc's blog.  Luckily we are in Hawaii now visiting the Grandparents and have lots of photos to share.  

You'll notice a theme:  Roc is either very covered up or very naked.  

John explaining the geology of the area while sitting in a tide pool at Meinini Beach.

Roc concentrating on throwing lots of rocks into the ocean.   This kids LOVES his rocks!

Granny, Roc and John in the 'bathtub' at the beach.  John has his lava camo on so he is hard to see.

Roc taking puppy for a walk up the driveway.

Checking out the Endeavour Orchard grounds.

Outdoor bathing!

Roc has 3 bathtubs in Hawaii.  That is what happens when you are the only Grandchild.

Again, lots of bucket time.

Backyard

Roc loves his new grassy backyard! 

Visitors!

We love visitors!!  Last weekend Erin, Adrien, and Tanya - three best friends from our childhood- came for a girl's weekend in Park City.  It was a wonderful reunion with lots of laughter and reminiscing!  Their visit was followed closely by a visit from Aunt Mary Jo. Roc got to show her around the Aviary & park and read stories with her.  It was a wonderful weekend!

Group selfie!

1 binkie in his mouth, one on deck.  3 new teeth this weekend!

Easter desert weekend!

Rocs school was closed for a 4-day Easter weekend so we decided to take the opportunity to head to the desert.  Rocs good buddy, Eli, and his parents joined us for one night.  It was a very relaxing, despite Roc projectile vomiting all over his car seat on the way down- and some grumpiness from teething!

My desert lizard!!

Mornings are cold in the desert. 

He reminds me of the kid from A Christmas Story in this photo..

Plaid hiking buddies!

Update!

It has been way too long!!!    Here is a quick update on how we have been spending our days.....starting back in February. 

Roc is now a fairly skilled walker who LOVES being outside.  We spend lots of time at the parks surrounding our house.  

We spend my and Abby's bday weekend in moab with a group of friends.  A few of us ran the Moab Red Hot trail run and we celebrated our bday with icecream sundaes and a pinata.  Rocs three favorite memories were spending valentines day with his girlfriend, Ilo, playing with the dogs the accompanied us on the trip, and Joel's Costco size bag of goldfish.  He is one spoiled little guy. 

Roc and Ilo is their matching valentines shirts.  It is hard to read but they say "yoda best valentine"

Matching mother/ daughter and father/ son headbands.
