The "highly traumatic" 1st Haircut

I'd say he didn't want to lose the curls. Lotsa girly stuff in the background. Maybe that did it

Why Yes...Yes He Does

How'd I Miss This One?

Happy Birthday Slugger

Brooks raked in the goodies ...(cupcakes and toys)

Being a rookie with the gifts, he was happy to accept some much needed help from the experienced "unwrapper" cousins Anna & Ellie. Thanks girls!

He loves this crazy zebra...courtesy of the Riley crew.

The day after the big party, eating phenomenal pancakes from the very famous Mckinney staple, Bill Smith's Cafe. Looks older and wiser...(the one on the left, anyway)

Cardinals Fan

Much like his daddy and the other Vogel boys Brooks appears to be a Cards fan. (Mommy's a life-long Cubs fan...booooooo! A house divided)
