a new friend...

I know that I've mentioned that Emma and Beckett got to meet baby Fish a couple weeks ago, but this is the first time that I got a peek of him. (No- for some reason I was not invited on their walk, but I saw him through the front door- quite a cutie!) Colin is a month old already! Here's a pic of the soon-to-be best buds. Beckett has a pretty cute pouty look, huh! He just woke up to realize that someone was in his stroller seat with him! (I would be pouty too...)

a cute boy and a bad haircut

yes...Beckett has gotten a haircut (today actually) but he hadn't gotten one in this cute pic yet. The bad haircut I'm referring to is ME! Emma was making some quick work with scissors and those scary clippers and just made a choppy mess of my beautiful hair. I'm a little embarrassed, but it's okay. I feel a lot better with a more cool hairstyle. Beckett is rolling over quite a bit these days and just loves being on his belly. Anyone want to guess when this little guy is going to start moving? I guess I need to prepare myself and start putting up my doggy treats!

our trip to florida!

Make a scrapbook - it's easy!

egg hunt!

Our neighbors had an easter egg hunt in the middle of March for the kids. We all had a lot of fun, especially Colton. I got to watch from across the street in my favorite spot lately- the front yard. Cole was running everywhere and quickly filled up his easter basket with as many eggs possible. He would leave his basket in one spot and run and get up to 4 eggs at once. It was hilarious. Beckett enjoyed watching the kids run around and sort of held an egg. Thanks for the fun time Mandy & Drew!

We miss you, JON!!!

I've hardly been inside all week and I'm LOVING IT! I've been in Florida all week with Emma and the boys. We've all had a really good time, but we definitely miss Jon and can't wait to see him tomorrow evening! I'll write more about our trip soon...but just wanted to share a fun picture of what we've been up to all week!

ready, set, go!!!

We've had a good week. Colton has been playing with his cars from his favorite movie CARS. Jon and Emma got them for him for his birthday (he has 9 of them!) and he thinks they're the greatest things. He even sleeps with them as you can see in the picture. He knows all the names and is having a blast playing with them. And Beckett has had an eventful week as well. He started eating rice cereal on Monday. He really likes it- even though half of it comes right back out! He's been sleeping really well this week too, which we'll give the cereal some credit for. Last night was an 8-5 then 7:30 night--with no crying in the middle of the night! Yeh for mommy! Beckett is 4 months old now and is developing a very happy personality. He loves to smile when people talk to him, or when I lick his face....

happy birthday to cole!

WOW! Can you believe that Colton is TWO years old today? We certainly cannot! We had a birthday party for him yesterday with just two friends (haha- maybe next year he can invite 3). He has grown up so much and has become such a sweet and lovable child. Even over the past month we have seen him develop in the way he communicates, his sense of humor, and the way he interacts with the family. He has become such a little boy and we're very proud of him. We are so excited to see him grow up this next year. One of his favorite words is still "Jenga" as I'm sure it will always be...I am, after all, his best friend!
