4 years ago today...

Brent and I were married at Thorncrown Chapel in Eureka Springs. I can't think of a more beautiful place to be married.

It has been a wonderful four years, and I am so blessed to have such a wonderful husband.

ONE MONTH

Beckett - You are ONE month old today!!

What are you up to these days?

*You weigh a little under 10 lbs and are about 22 inches long

*You wear a size 1 diaper

*You are starting to outgrow your newborn clothes and can fit into some of your 0-3 month

*You still nurse every 2-3 hours, and take a couple ounces of formula (Gentlease) at night



*You nap pretty good during the day, as long as you are swaddled or laying on your tummy
*You are doing pretty well at night, sleeping 3-4 hour stretches most nights
*You sleep in your swing at night, right beside our bed...A habit that we need to break soon...lol
*You aren't crazy about bathtime, but I love it, so I am hoping that you get used to it!

*You have a bad case of baby acne that I hope clears up quickly, although it doesn't seem to bother you




*You love to be held, and you also like being carried in the sling. Usually puts you right to sleep.
*You are starting to stay awake and alert more and more during the day. You have also begun to take notice of your big brother. You will stare at him for the longest time if he is talking or singing to you. He loves you SO much!
*You like your paci okay. You will suck on it for a little while when you are fussy, but you aren't in love with it by any means. And if you get too mad, the paci just makes it worse!

We love you to peices little man!! You bring us more joy than we could have ever imagined. I can't believe that it has already been a month since you joined our little family. I look forward to watching you grow and can only imagine all the happiness that you and your brother will bring to me!

Happy Tuesday!

Happy Tuesday to everyone!!

We ate dinner at Dad and Karen's last night, and Beckett wore one his little Halloween onesies. Isn't he cute? It says Baby's 1st Halloween, but he covered it up with his hand. Brent said he looked like a little jailbird...lol. I see his point, but he is a cute jailbird anyway.

Snuggled up with his PawPaw.

I could just eat him up :)

4 Weeks

Little man is 4 weeks old today! And what a joy he is. Even when he is fussy, or won't sleep at night (like last night...lol), I am loving every minute with him. I know that this time with them as babies will be gone before I know it.

But boy, I had forgotten how exausting these first few month are. Beckett does pretty well most nights, usually wakes up twice and goes right back to sleep. And Brody has been routinely sleeping all night for a while now. BUT, then we have nights like last night. One of the boys was up pretty much every hour or 2. Beckett seemed to have a tummy ache. And I don't know what Brody's problem was - I don't know if he was having bad dreams, or if all the gatorade Brent gave him last night had him too wired to sleep - but it was a long night, nonetheless.

And this is what little man did most of the morning :)

When he wasn't snoozing this morning, we had fun playing on his playmat.

I even caught a little grin!

Happy 4 weeks baby boy!!!
