Making a Mess

Beckett's favorite thing to do these days is make a mess! Here he is emptying the pantry... Dinner time is another great time for messes! We have decided no clothes is the best way for Beckett to eat spaghetti. :)

Beckett and Josiah

Today Beckett and his pal, Josiah, met at the park to play. Beckett can't wait until the day Josiah can run around the playground with him.
Beckett had lots of secrets to tell Josiah.Josiah tried out the swings for the first time today!

Trip To Southern California

Beckett, Grandpa, and I headed over to Medford last Sunday, to fly out to Southern California. We stayed with GG for the night and then the next day we headed out to the airport. Beckett was happy to be at his GG's house and play with all her things.
On Monday we got on our plane and headed down the runway. Halfway down they put on the brakes and took us back to the terminal. They ended up cancelling our flight and rebooking us for the next day. Beckett was very sad as you can tell! :(
The next day Beckett was up and ready to try it again! We finally made it to California to see Beckett's Great Grandpa Conrad and Great Grandma Donna.
Beckett's middle name comes from his Great Grandpa Conrad.
Beckett found Great Grandpa's sandals and had fun putting them on. One thing both of them have in common is their big feet! Maybe Beckett will end up with size 13 shoes, like Great Grandpa.Four Generations On Wednesday we celebrated Great Grandma's 83rd birthday at Universal Studios. Beckett met the bunny from the new movie Hop, but he was a little scared of him. Then we went on the tour of Universal Studios.
On the tour they took us in a tunnel and had 3D King Kong and Godzilla come out. They shook the bus and it was a little scary. I was worried it would scare Beckett, but he was fine. His eyes were a little big, looking at the crazy creatures.
Beckett enjoyed the 4D Shrek show.
Beckett and I even posed for a fun Shrek pic! Then the rain started to come down. We all bundled up in ponchos.
What cute sisters, even in the rain!! There were no baby ponchos, so Beckett and I shared. He did NOT like it one bit. The whole time he was pulling at the poncho to get it off. Finally he ripped it completely. Once he was free and getting soaking wet, he was happy!On Thursday we went and saw Beckett's Great Great Grandma Juanita. Yes, that is two greats!!Here we all are with the beautiful quilt she made for Beckett.
Juanita's next door neighbor had animals and Beckett absolutely LOVED them. Grandpa even taught Beckett how to make horse noises. Monkey see (or hear!), Monkey do.
Then we headed back home. What a great trip, seeing so much family!

Construction Saturday

This morning Beckett and his dad had a project to do. They put together a new toy box for all of Beckett's toys.
Beckett was very interested in the tools, especially the drill.

Working with Dad is always fun!

There's that drill again!

Finished Project

Hanging with the Olson's

Tonight we went over to the Olson's for our weekly entertainment. Here are the babies with Grant. Looks like someone found a belly button!
Beckett had his first root beer float. Yum Yum! I know, I know. You are probably thinking I have lost my mind letting him have one, with all that sugar! But he only had a little. :)



Redwood 5K Race

Grant and I have been training for the Hood to Coast relay race that will be held in August. Today we had our first training race with our team. My best pal, Mary, has been my training buddy! Grant was VERY excited about the race!
Here is our C & K Market Team before the race. The Lunde's after the race
We were a little soaked from the rain! :) But that did not slow Grant down from getting 3rd place in his age group!All the C & K Market Team finished!
Meanwhile Beckett hung out with Grandpa for the morning. It was guy time!

Happy Birthday Uncle Brett!

Today is Uncle Brett's birthday, so Beckett wanted to wish him a VERY happy birthday and a Happy St. Patrick's Day too!
Ellie was a little easier to pose than Beckett was! She does look pretty miserable though. :)

Here is Beckett with his sign...

All About the Books

Ever since Beckett was a few months old he has been fascinated with books. I was looking through some of my old pictures and I noticed a trend...
