My Sweet Beckett :)

As I am sitting here typing, my sweet Beckett is whining at my feet wanting me to pick him up! lol. This time last year I was free to type a blog or go to the store or do basically whatever I wanted, whenever I wanted... but now, my life is caring for my son... and I have to say...

I wouldn't have it any other way!

I love the little guys so much and he brings me so much joy on a DAILY basis! Isn't God good? He loves me so much as to bless me with this funny, outspoken, loud, sweet little boy! There couldn't be a bigger blessing to me than to be a mom and have the opportunity to raise this little man! :) I am beyond happy and blessed!

Beckett is growing up so quickly! It brings me to tears sometimes when I look back on pictures over this past year! There is so much emotion that fills my heart when I look at each one!

Beckett started walking a couple of weeks ago and he isn't a pro yet (and I'm def. not rushing him to be)... but each day he gets better and better! It's crazy how quickly he just started walking! It was like he just decided to be brave one day... and he did it! He hasn't stopped since! He is such a smart boy and has come SUCH a long way! The doctor's said he may be a little slower in achieving certain milestones since he was 6 weeks pre-mature but... he def. proved those doctors wrong! From a itty bitty 5 pounds to 23 pound chunk.... he is doing JUST fine!

He says Ma Ma, Da Da, Bye Bye and some other things that I haven't really figured out yet! He is def. a talker and I love it! He laughs a lot and is a very happy Baby boy! He loves being at home and loves his crib... good luck getting him to sleep anywhere else! lol. He smiles everytime he sees his Daddy walk through the door and it makes me smile to see Jeff as a Father and def. has made me fall in love with him all over again, in a completely different way!

Beckett is so smart and knows just what he wants! He is very sneaky and will test us in a skinny minute! He def. has learned what NO means though and has become such a great listener, most of the time! Even though I know we will be challenged in the years to come! He fights his naps but def. needs them! They do wonders for his mood! He is like his Daddy in that aspect.... a little cat nap even will help him to purk right up and be happy!

Beckett gives kisses with his mouth wide open! I think it's so sweet! Usually we have to ask for kisses or tell him to give kisses but today he gave me a kiss without me having to ask and it was so sweet! :) He melts my heart! He loves to be around people! We visited a church in Raleigh a few weeks ago and the nursery worker told us he was the only child at first and seemed so quiet but when other kids started to come in, he started immediately showing his fun personality! He loves people, that is for sure, as well as attention!

We are planning his 1st Birthday Party now! We went with the sports theme! Imagine that! He loves basketball and every time he sees someone with a basketball or sees it bounce, he grins from ear to ear! He has a couple now and plays with them all the time and has even tossed one across the floor! I'm pretty sure he is going to be athletic like his Daddy!

These are just a few things Beckett has been learning lately and I cannot WAIT to see what else is in store for us! I am so thankful that we get to go through life with this sweet little boy!

Below are a few pictures that were taken at my moms when we visited her in Raleigh a couple weeks ago!


Just a little sneeze...

Just eating a little soap suds... no big deal.


The day I started walking...
