Cooking with Dad

On Saturday we spent the afternoon cooking up dinners for next week and also some banana bread. Beckett wanted to help out his dad with the cooking, so Grant put him in the Baby Bjorn. He really liked the spatula and wouldn't let go! :)

Shhh..Don't Tell Daddy

This week Grant was out of town on business, so Beckett found his way into his Momma's bed. Ellie wanted in on the snuggling too! WIDE awake at 6am! Time to play! :)

This Week GG and Beckett Together

This week was my first week back to school. My Grandma (Beckett's GG) came over from Medford to watch him. Having her here made it a lot easier to go back to work. Beckett's Grandma came home each day at lunch to give GG a break and play with Beckett.

GG and Beckett snoozing. They loved their afternoon naps together. Beckett VERY excited to see his momma at the end of the day!

First Mother's Day

I had a wonderful first Mother's Day! To start the day off Beckett and Grant made me breakfast and got me flowers. Then we went to church where I received MORE flowers, for being the youngest mom at church!! Here is a picture of Beckett and I with the beautiful flowers behind us. Then in the evening my parents, Auntie, and Grandma came over for dinner. Grant cooked us a wonderful dinner, including delicious fish that Beckett's Uncle Neal caught!
Here is Beckett up at the table, joining the family!

Beckett got a little cranky at the end of the night, but his Auntie Carolyn knows how to cheer him up! Here he is playing with her.

A picture of all the moms and Beckett! There is my mom- Sally, my Auntie Carolyn, and my grandma! Beckett's face shows that he was done for the evening.

Beckett and Mom Singing Songs

Beckett loves to sing songs! Here is a cute video of him singing his favorite one. Well okay...maybe it is just me singing, but he is certainly enjoying it. Even if the singing is a little off key!!

Maternity Leave is Almost Over

This is my last week of maternity leave. Beckett and I have enjoyed every minute of our 13 weeks together. Beckett loves to play on the floor and sing songs with his mom.

Beckett has started giggling the last couple of weeks! It is the most precious sound.

Beckett hanging out in his favorite spot...his bouncy chair.


Another shot of Beckett in his bouncy chair. He spends a lot of time in the chair, while his mom is cooking!

Lately Beckett has been wanting to be held ALL the time. My new solution is putting him in the front pack and wearing it around the house. He likes it especially when I vacuum. The noise puts him right to sleep!

Grant's solution is carrying him around. He likes that too!!

The Guys

Tonight we went over to Beckett's Grandpa and Grandma's house for dinner. Beckett was not able to enjoy the yummy salmon dinner; however he did have fun talking and playing with his grandpa.

Fun In the Sun

Today we enjoyed a beautiful sunny day in Brookings. Beckett's Nana got him this fun shade tent and we decided to put it to use. Beckett took a nice long nap in it and enjoyed playing in it as well. What a fun Beaver Orange tent!!

Snoozing in the shade

Finally a picture showing that cute smile!!

Grandma Sally likes the tent too!

12 Weeks Old

Beckett's is officially 12 weeks old. Check out his fancy pjs that Auntie Tera and Mom found in Portland!!

Beckett is getting stronger and stronger everyday. His neck is getting strong enough where today we were able to turn him around facing forward in the Baby Bjorn.

Beckett enjoys playing on his blanket with all of his toys. Bev Rose made him this beautiful quilt that has his name on it. I promise he does smile sometimes!!

The last couple of days Beckett has been grabbing his knees and pulling on them. Here he is doing it and showing off his big feet! Today he discovered his feet. It was interesting watching him stare at them and move them. Next I am sure they will be in his mouth!
