Just for fun :)

Here are some comparison pics from all three months...I can definately tell he has changed!!

One Month

Two Months

Three Months

3 Months

Beckett - you are THREE months old today!!

What are you up to these days??

*You weigh 14lbs 11oz and are about 24 inches long

*You wear a size 2 diaper and are starting to outgrow your 0-3 month clothes. I am putting some 3-6 month on you now.

*You are mostly formula fed during the day now (We are still trying Parent's Choice Sensitive, but you are spitting up alot, so who knows...). You take 5 oz about every 3 hours when Mommy is at work, but you will go alot longer between bottles when you are at home b/c you still nurse alot in between. If you wake up during the night, you nurse instead of taking a bottle. I started giving you a tablespoon or so of rice cereal in your bedtime bottle, but it seemed to plug you up a little, so we have stopped that for now. Will try again at about 4 months.

*You still take about 2 good long naps during the day (still no set schedule yet) and cat nap alot, too. We will probably work on getting you on more of a schedule in the next couple months.

*You sleep from about 10pm til around 5am (most of the time). I usually put you in the bed beside me at that point, let you eat, and we both snooze a little bit longer. I finally took you out of your swing at night, and you now sleep on your tummy in the packnplay right beside my bed. I am glad we finally did it...I think it will make the transition to your crib in your room much easier...although I don't want to do that anytime soon :)

*You still have cradle cap - I am using baby oil and Head and Shoulders shampoo to try and keep it to a minimum.

*You smile ALL THE TIME now, which I LOVE LOVE LOVE. And you are starting to laugh out loud too. Not so much of a laugh as a cute little squeal. I could just eat you up.

*You got your first set of shots at about 10 weeks, and you did great. You cried while they were giving them, but stopped just seconds after. You didn't run any fever and never even really acted like your legs hurt you. I hope they are all that easy!

*You are staying the church nursery now rather than going into big church with Mommy. They say you do wonderful and just sleep most of the time. I still haven't gotten brave enough to leave you for Sunday School too, so we usually just come for church. Maybe soon though....

*You are soooo happy in the mornings. It is by far your favorite time of the day. You wake up just smiling and cooing. I love it so much.

*You aren't rolling yet, but you push yourself up and hold your head up great while laying on your belly. I bet it won't be long.

Happy 3 months baby boy! You are growing waaay too fast!

2 Months

I never did a 2 month post for Beckett, so I am going to go ahead and do it now...while I can still remember what he was doing a month ago....(So lets just pretend like this was posted last month...hehe)

BECKETT - You are TWO months old!

What are you up to these days??

*You weigh 12lbs 8 oz and are about 23 inches long

*You moved up to a size 2 diaper (chunky thighs!) and wear 0-3 month clothes

*You still nurse when you are home with Mommy (about every 3 hours), but you take formula while Mommy is at work. We started out with Gentlease, then tried Enfamil Lipil, and are now on Parent's Choice Sensitive...you seem to have tummy troubles just like your big brother...

*You usually take a good morning nap and a good afternoon nap (no set times yet) and then just catnap in between.

*You usually go down for the night around 10-11pm, and wake up once. Usually sometime around 3 or 4.

*You are beginning to tolerate you carseat much better...it usually puts you right to sleep

*Your baby acne has cleared up...but you now have horrible cradle cap. Mommy hates seeing your poor little skin so dry and scaly :(

*We can catch a big grin every now and then, and you are starting to coo some

*You like your paci and your bath now - Yipee!

*You move CONSTANTLY - your little arms and legs never stop moving, especially when we have you lying on a blanket on the floor. We joke that you are going to be a runner like your daddy ;)

Love you buddy! I can't wait to see what the next month has in store for you!

Lotsa' Babes!

Beckett and I went to Alicia's for a quick little visit this week. Alicia has a 4 week old little girl, Karly. Cassie and her little boy Kasen (who is one week older than Beckett) met us too. We left the big kids at home and just had a nice relaxing visit with just us and the babes.

I just had to take a pic of B on all of this pink bedding...just for his daddy...lol.

The three babies meet for the first time! It doesn't look like Karly liked being stuck between those two boys!

I didn't realize how chunky B was until this weekend...

This and That

It's late and I am tired, so I am not going to do alot of writing here, but I though I would share a few pictures.

Beckett has really started smiling alot in the last few weeks. I could just eat him up. This pic isn't of a very big smile, but I just love his little grin :)

I started back to work a couple weeks ago. I was dreading it, but it really is going ok. It wasn't as hard to leave this time as it was with Brody. Maybe because I knew more of what to expect or maybe because life at home is a little crazier and I welcome the break a tiny bit. Who knows. Either way, we are adjusting just fine. I miss them both like crazy, but I know they are in good hands, so things are going well. And it's just 3 days a week...I can't complain. This is my first morning back to work.

I just think this is funny. Beckett loves to ride around in the little frontpack carrier, but he usually falls asleep. Well, when I would take him out to lay him down, he would always wake up. So, I have started just unsnapping it from my shoulders and laying him down still in the pack. He will stay asleep that way. Whatever works right?

We were headed to the Warrens for the evening and I thought they just looked so cute. Aren't these boys just adorable?

Mom and Brooke were over one evening and decided they wanted to nap with Beckett. They weren't quite asleep yet in this picture, hence the grins on their faces, but I thought it was sweet anyway.

Beckett grinning at his Pawpaw

I survived my first shopping trip with both boys this weekend. Amie and I went to Texarkana shopping. I pushed them around in the double stroller, and they did just great. This thing seemed so huge to me! But it was definately handy!

My precious big boy :)

I took a picture of Beckett today, and it reminded me of one I have of Brody. I can really see some similarities, although most of the time I don't think they look alike.

Beckett today (at 8 weeks) ....

And Brody at about 12 weeks.....

Beckett's baby dedication is this Sunday at church, so I hope to get some pictures of that on here soon!

For you mom!!

Mom is out of town, so Brody and I went to Brooke's very first awards assembly at her school this morning. I told mom I would post the pics so she could see them today! So, here you go mom!


This is where Brody spotted Brooke and made a mad dash for her nearly knocking her over...lol. I had to pry his little arms off of her neck so that we could go sit back down.



This is her Citizenship Award...

And here she is receiving the Principal's Award for all A's!! Good job Brooke!

And here are a couple pics from our day :)


Brody had this pitcher out in the yard today, and when I asked him what he was doing he said he was trying to catch some of the leaves that were falling from the sky!

Look at the belly that this little one is getting :-)

Hope you guys are having fun in Houston!!!!!
