Wildlife Forensics Lab

Uncle Ken gave us a tour of the lab. It is so interesting. Rocky was amazed by everything we saw.

Ashland, Oregon

Visiting Uncle Ken and Auntie Gena's "Rancho Guano." Meme came over and brought her dog Bas, don't let Punchy know we were with another boxer! Rocco was so comfortable riding around in the golf cart he fell asleep!

Berkeley

Vinnie and Zee took us out for a really nice lunch, a walk down the pier where we got a good view of San Francisco and the Golden Gate Bridge, and let Rocco explore Zee's beautiful garden.

Road trip!

Yes, we're crazy and decided to do a road trip with a kid who hates his car seat. We're doing the driving while he's sleeping so it took us 12 hours to get to Berkeley. This has been a trip like no other for us including spending time on the grass in front of a gas station and just walking around a Super K Mart to burn energy.

Haricut #3

Umm... a little too much like a bowl cut but what can you do. With all of his squirming and screaming for the poor girl giving the cut I guess this is what happens.

Great-Grandma's Birthday

Happy 82nd birthday Great-Grandma Jane!!!

Yuma

Unfortunately we had to go to Yuma for Grandpa Ed's funeral. Rocco is lucky to have met him. Rocco had a great time playing with Tara and cousin Christopher! Lucky for Rocky there was a car show going on that we were able to catch.

Rocco helping Dad

Just like Daddy he likes to work on cars, he even has a matching plumber's crack.

Mike's birthday

Rocco wore the shirt Bechtel picked out for him to Mike's birthday dinner. He looked like a little rocker with his outfit carrying around one of his favorite toys, a drumstick.

Kisses

Rocco has learned to give kisses, nice slobbery ones. He has a thing for Auntie Budge and is constantly kissing her! She can't wait to tell him that when he's older!

Lakers

First Lakers game! He LOVED it!!! He was cheering at the top of his lungs and dancing around. So cute! Thanks Matt & Jessica for taking us!

Charlie's birthday

Charlie's 23rd birthday!

Rice

Went to Mitsuwa with Uncle GJ and had rice for the first time.

First time in the snow!

We went to Julian so Rocco could see the snow. You can see the surprised reaction to the cold snow in his mouth!

We went to the pancake breakfast and hung out with Joanna.

Eating real solids

He's refusing the mushed food and will only eat solids he can feed himself. Avocados are a favorite!

Playing with Audrey

Audrey and Rocco have so much fun together! Of course Rocky entertains them both although he was a little upset to come home and find Rocco in a Chargers outfit ;)

San Elijo Lagoon

Rocky had part of the day off so we went out to enjoy the beautiful day! We walked around the San Elijo Lagoon and checked out the new center they built. Lots of fun! We caught Rocco's new smile in a few pictures, mouth wide open!
