Indoor Blues

Wow! It's almost February. I wish I could say we've been extra busy, but busy is an understatement when referring to a toddler. Beckett is changing daily. Sometimes he wakes up from a nap and looks like a completely different kid. I can't seem to keep up with all the new things he's learning and exploring. If there's a limit Beckett is ready to conquer it. If Mommie has a limit, he's ready to push her over the edge! :) Every moment is precious in our eyes and I relish being able to share it with him and all of you. Enjoy!


Beckett loves the new lounge chair Grandma made for him.

The repercussions of "No."

He did great and even scored a new toothbrush!

Pearly whites and toofie #8, which broke after
we saw the dentist.

Bubble bath fun

Snow Day! It probably snowed 12 solid hours and at least 6 inches of fresh powder today. How could we resist?! Good times.

Holiday in TX (Part 3)


The Zilker Park fire engine. I used to play on this same
fire truck when I was a kid!

Lounging with Piper...Beckett's guardian puppy!

Yes, it's hard to resist his cuteness.

Hammin' it up

Finally I get the chance to wear my Gunners
gear...thanks Uncle Steve.

Here's Beckett showing some textbook footwork,
notice how he stays between himself and the
defender (Nana).

Holiday in TX (Part 2)

Sorry it's taken me so long to post the rest of our pics from our trip. There were over 600 pics to filter through and we're still trying to settle back into a routine. Enjoy...there's more to come!


Hey it's nifty that Papa's 60!!

Holiday in TX (Part 1)

Happy New Year family & friends! We made it home from our holiday in TX and finally feel motivated enough to share it with you. It was a blast and we loved every minute of it!! We flew out on Christmas Day with a 4 hour layover in Salt Lake City. Beckett handled the first (and shortest) leg of our journey well. The 4 hours in SLC were good too. The flight from SLC to TX (a grueling 2.5 hours)...not so good. But we all survived and began our holiday with smiles and sunshine. Here are some highlights. Enjoy!

Cooking with Nana on our first morning together.


Beckett on his new ride.


Flora, fauna and sunshine in Nana's garden.


There's trees everywhere!


Running with Nana was fun.


OK, inside is fun too.


Look at all the cars. Brodie Lane is exciting!


There's another car. And another, and another...


Beckett and Nana were friends from the get-go.


Piper was slow to warm up, but then became Beckett's guardian.


Cheese.
