6 months...

So these are a little late getting on here! Beckett was 6 months on December 10th. Lately he has been pushing up on all fours and rocking back and forth. He is eating fruits and vegetables and likes solid food better than his milk now. Also, Bradley was letting him chew on his finger today and he noticed his first tooth has come in. How exciting for us first time parents to fill something rough on his gums!

Tennis babies

Two cute booties!

Beckett and Tucker have the same birthday. Tucker's mom and I say that I waited until 12:09am to have Beckett just so they would have the same birthday.

Last Sunday all the tennis team babies got together to "pose" for a picture for Kim's Christmas card. It was so much fun seeing them all together. Props to any mom that has multiples!

Cheesy Grin

Check out the cheesy grin with Bebe.
Aunt Carrie got the cute reindeer bib that Beckett's sporting!
We can't wait to pass it down to "Little Baby Covert" next year!

Bradley went to deer camp one last time last weekend so thanks to Carrie and Bebe for entertaining us all weekend. I found out yesterday when it was icy and we didn't go anywhere that Beckett gets bored easily. He likes being out and about running errands and visiting family and friends. I could hardly keep him occupied yesterday. Good thing he likes to nap and now LOVES his jumpy seat. I will try to post some video of him in it because it's too funny. Lori, you will have to help me out with that!

Recent Pictures

Beckett's a mustard lover like his mom! Just kidding- He just has octopus arms these days and grabs everything in sight to try to put it in his mouth. Also, he loves going to visit his Granny on Tuesday nights. She enjoys watching him do all his tricks for the first time at her house.
We took Beckett to Branson last weekend and he was so good while we shopped. I guess we didn't feed him enough because he's trying to eat Poppy's arm at lunch.

This picture is for Sarah. Whenever I hold Taylor I drop food on her. So no that's not a birthmark on Beckett it's salsa I dropped on him.

Ladies' Man! He was trying to hold Baby Samantha's hand.

Check out the cute snowboots that Beckett got to wear when there were a few snowflakes. Thanks Kim!

My nephew Ethan is hard to catch with a regular smile these days so I hope to blackmail him one day with this picture.

Some Thanksgiving Pictures

Rolling the tree in...Bam Bam had a special closet built just so she can leave the tree up year round.

Can you get more relaxed?

Beckett watching while everyone decorates. Quit talking MommaShelle and feed me.

Lovin' on Aunt Foo Foo! We miss her already!

Really, Sarah is his absolute favorite but who is keeping score?

Listening to Andy Williams and getting in the Christmas Spirit.

Baby Taylor- Beckett can't wait to play with her over Christmas.

The stage when everything goes in your mouth...

Beckett is teething so everything he touches goes into his mouth. (Even Rudolph's glass light bulb nose) Tonight I was holding the remote and he started fussing and reaching for it. I know...normal behavior for a boy but when I gave it to him he pushed on it for a few seconds and then wanted to suck on it! So if anybody has advice out there for things for him to chew on let me know.

Men and Fire

Thanks Dad!

Tonight I got back from a tennis lesson and Bradley rushed out the door to a basketball game. I go kiss on Beckett to discover that he has a NASTY diaper. But since I was getting ready to give him his cereal and then a bath I decided to wait on changing his diaper. Like any good mom I was trying to save time and multi task! After I fed him his cereal I took off his diaper and cleaned him up the best I could. He had poop all over his back and cereal all down his front. So I carried him naked from the bedroom to the kitchen and of course on the way to the bathtub he peed all over me. I will blame this all on Bradley for not changing his diaper before he left... It's a good thing he's so cute and was smiling the whole time!

Beckett goes for his first ride...

Anne and Mark brought their 'baby" down for the weekend and he took Beckett for a ride. Chase is one dog that I like for those of you that know I am not a animal lover! Beckett loved when he kissed his toes.

Non Beckett Post

Sarah told me my (Beckett's) blog had become a bore so I thought I would spice things up. Today my mom, Michele and I exercised our freedom of speech right at the capital for the first time. We attended a rally that opposed the passing of Amendment 1. I could get on my soapbox about hatred and some peoples need to feel like they are the judge of others but I think I will let the picture speak for itself...

5 months...

Trying out the Mike Tyson his dad taught him!

The monkey's down for the count.

Giving the monkey a hug.

Wow! Time really flies! I can't believe Beckett's already 5 months old. Lately he's been impossible to change because he wants to roll over. He's also extrememly ticklish too so changing his clothes is quite interesting these days.
