Our sweet Beckham is two months old today. I truly can't believe it has been two months. The first two weeks of his life I told everyone he was the PERFECT baby- he smiled from the beginning and melted all of our hearts. He rarely cried and was just a wonderfully easy baby. After two weeks we had the colic, reflux, and just about anything else kick in...but of course we still adored him. It took a lot of trips to the doctor to figure out what was going on and how we would survive (I was beyond exhausted) but now he feels much better and the smiles are back and I am actually getting some sleep! He is back to being that easy happy baby. It has been a little over 5 years since we had a baby in our home..and I thought it would all come back and this time would be easy...but now I know it is sometimes a re-learning process- however- I am more relaxed with this third baby boy. I know the sleepless nights will end and that I might be able to get stuff done in the future :) ..but right now I am really enjoying holding him and looking into those beautiful eyes and dreaming of what he will become when he is older. We are truly blessed and enjoying EVERY minute of it.

Happy TWO months Beckham....
Goodbye Hix Family....
Our friends and neighbors The Hix Family are moving to Idaho. So last night it was a neighborhood party to say goodbye (or as we all like to think of it ....see you later...)! My kids had a blast. They adore Ryker and Gavin and are so sad that they won't be able to play with them as often (we really are hoping they come visit and play soon). Sara is the best- a great friend and she always makes me smile. Just the best family....we will miss you!
I love this picture of all the kids playing (sorry Julie about your beautiful flowers :) )! My kids are a little short so you can only see their heads. This neighborhood is wonderful...this is only a small portion of the great kids who live here!

The Dinosaur Museum
Today we went to the Dinosaur Museum at Thanksgiving Point with Andrea, Joshua, Brady, Aubrey, Steph, Sky, Jett, Brooke, Suzanne, Abby, and LuLu. We had such a great time! The kids LOVED everything about it! We went through the museum, played with the wet sand, then into the sandbox, and then off to lunch. What a wonderful day!

Father's Day 2009
Happy Father's Day to a WONDERFUL father and husband. We adore you.
The kids wanted to make cards and breakfast for Dennis- so we got up and got it all done. I told them I wanted to take a picture and wanted them to hold the breakfast up along with their cards....as you can see by their faces it was a little too much to hold and the breakfast was about to hit the ground...but no worries...we got it delivered to Dennis in bed safe and sound. Happy Father's Day Dennis!
