9 1/2 Months Old

Our sweet Beckett is 9 1/2 months old, we are so in love with this little guy!! He has gotten so big so fast!  He is so silly and busy and loves to squeal at the top of his lungs (video below), especially in the grocery store while riding in the cart, it is SO funny! He can grab anything and everything, he is so fast and is a mess maker! He is a mommy's boy and I LOVE it!! He loves to follow his brother and other big kids around and he climbs all over them!  He has the best little personality - he is pretty laid back and go with the flow... but of course he is strong willed and when he has his mind set on something, he will get it.  I am going to go ahead a predict that he is not going to sit in timeout when I ask him to ;)


Milestones:
crawling, standing, walking around furniture, eating some table foods, drinking out of a sippy cup


Beckett's Loves:
Parker, bananas, carrots, cheetos, puffs, jogging stroller, baths, playing

Beckett's Dislikes:
Diaper and clothing changes


Stats:
17 Pounds and 12 Ounces 
27 Inches 
(If you are wondering Parker was 17 Pounds 11 Ounces and 27 1/4 Inches - crazy how similar!!)

Lots of catching up

We have been so busy and have had a lot going on... so I am finally catching up on my blogging!

I have just posted 4 new blogs below. 

Easter 2012

 We arrived in Birmingham at 10:30PM saturday night. I really wanted to get back home so we could celebrate Easter at home. I didn't feel as prepared as usual for Easter this year because we have been so busy. I did not have the boys Easter baskets as "perfect" as I would have liked... but I know that Easter is NOT about the baskets and toys and that is not what I want my boys to be focused on when they get older. So, that's what I was trying to remind myself of last night.

We started the morning with Easter baskets and Easter egg hunting. Please excuse the boys pajamas - we just let them sleep in the shirts they had on in the car last night. 


Easter Baskets


 Sweet Beckett 
Yes, thats big boy underwear in his basket...
 Can you handle his cuteness ;)


 The bunny hid eggs in our house!! 

Today, the boys wore Colt's outfits from when he a little boy! They were so cute! We had lunch at Ganny's with Colt's family and had several Easter egg hunts.  


 Bentley came with Matt and Ana! It was so good to see him!

Then we ended the night with dying easter eggs at home! We dyed the eggs with kool-aid and water - a pintrest idea... we will be doing it again! Love it! 

 Dying Easter Eggs 


 Beckett got it all over him!

 "The angel said to the women, “Do not be afraid, for I know that you are looking for Jesus, who was crucified. 6 He is not here; he has risen, just as he said. Come and see the place where he lay. 7 Then go quickly and tell his disciples: ‘He has risen from the dead and is going ahead of you into Galilee. There you will see him.’ Now I have told you." 
Matthew 28:5-7
