Father’s Day Weekend

 














Thank you so much for letting me be your dad! I’m so proud to have you as a son!

When I came home from work on Friday, you were sitting up on the floor with your back to me — something new you can do all by yourself—, and when you heard my voice, you scooted all the way around to look at me! Later that evening, I grabbed some animal crackers to share with you and sat on the floor with you. You made an expression that made me feel like the luckiest person alive; you were so excited that I came down to play with you! We shared animal crackers and hung out, and it was the best!

Your school says you grabbed a balance bar they have mounted on the wall and picked yourself up to a standing position. That’s a huge milestone! 

On Saturday, you joined me for my morning commute to George West, Texas. We ate breakfast at the hotel, and met up with your Grandma, Opa, and your Aunt Adela, and they took you on shopping adventures and to hang out at their house. You had so much fun!

This morning, Father’s Day, you and mom made me breakfast in bed, and got me some amazing presents. I’m so thankful for both of you!

You’re currently napping beside me and it’s the best feeling ever: knowing that you are happy to be around me. I adore you!

Thank you for allowing me to be your dad!

I love you always!

-Your Dad, Kerry

Drummer Boy

  You love music! You listen to records and dance, play drums, and scratch on a little portable turntable. You’re amazing! It so much fun watching you develop and grow. You are talking so much now! My favorite is when you say “wow”, it’s so cute! Recently, you went to your first Fiesta event, an Indian Festival at Hemisfair, and have hung out with your cousins in Austin. So much fun! You love playing outside, bouncing balls, going on walks, and playing in the mud. Spider-Man is your all time favorite, you call him dadoowah. We are so fortunate to have you as a son! I love you! -Your dad, Kerry

Happy New Year

  Brooklyn, I’m sorry I haven’t updated this more often. Life sure is hectic nowadays. You’re growing so fast! You can form sentences and we can communicate better with each day.  Every single day you do something that completely blows me away. You are so smart, talented, brave, funny, and kind. I like that we are developing hobbies together. It’s so fun to watch you get excited over basketball, or Spider-Man, or music, or monster trucks, or trains. We grew broccoli sprouts together last month. You ate the first batch in one sitting.  You have a little green wagon and I love going on walks with you. Although you are a really high-energy kid, you are happy to just be calm and present on a walk. It’s really an inspiring example. You honestly teach me so many things. You remind me that I need to drink more water, especially when I’m not feeling well. You remind me to always say bye to the people I care about, even when I’m in a rush. You remind me that sprouts are yummy. You...

23 Months

 We’re about a week away from you being 23 months old and you just continue to grow and amaze us every day. Your favorite things: Music! You still love playing drums/ any percussion instruments but you recently got a ukulele that is the perfect size for you. You and your dad also love playing the harmonica together and it’s pretty amazing to watch.  You love listening to music and singing as well. Your favorite songs to sing are Wheels on the Bus, Twinkle Twinkle Little Star, Baby Shark, ABCs, and honorable mention for Blur - Song 2.  You love the outdoors, specifically trees, the moon, and the rain.  Your other special interests right now are trains, fireworks, and monster trucks. You very frequently ask for us to play videos of these things for you. We’re hoping to take you on a train ride for your birthday and your Opa has your ear plugs ready for the next Monster Truck Jam we can get to. We think it’s so funny that you love to watch fireworks because we took you ...
