Rock Mega-Post!!!

I have decided to make up for the lack of posts lately by compiling a Super-mega-post full of Rock goodness. Our little hero is doing great; right now he is coming off of a high from getting spoiled from having Grandma and Grandpa England here (along with KC and Nick) for the long weekend. He sure likes attention and showing off his new skills. First he showed off his made remote skills by showing everybody how quickly he could flip through all the channels on the TV. He was pretty proud of himself.Then he took some time to show off his mastery of origami. He's making a crane.
Rock had to go shopping with the women and he wasn't a big fan. I wish that I had a comfy chair to sleep in when DeA drags me shopping.
After a long day of entertaining, Rock still found time to fit in his daily push-up regimen of 45000 fist push-ups.
After getting all pumped up and ripped, Rock wanted to relax with a quick game of Madden '08 against Nick. The final score was 734-7 after he let Nick score a pity touchdown with a minute left.
The boys all went to the Field of Dreams and Rock came away with a bat that was his specific size! Like the professional hitter he is he first checked the integrity of the bat by gnawing on the barrel.

As soon as he was sure the the bat was made from quality ash he took some practice cuts in the kitchen. You know, I was never allowed to swing a bat in the kitchen, but you can obviously see my mother in the background encouraging him. Sometimes I wish I was harder to raise.
Perfect bunting technique. Pinching the barrel with the top hand, squared to the pitcher (who was about to bring the high heat with a golf ball).
Then he gathered everybody around and he regaled us all with his stories of epic adventures and forbidden loves. And of course he threw out quite a few classy jokes. His favorite joke to tell right now is about the girl with a glass eye and the boy with a cleft pallet. Very classy.
Then when all was said and done he just sat back, kicked his feet up and enjoyed some Baby SportsCenter.

And don't forget, only four days left! Here's a little something to help you share in Rock's excitement!
