Easter

Beckett spent his first Easter in Hot Springs. We hunted eggs in between rain showers but Beckett, Aidan and Ethan didn't seem to let that get in the way of the fun. After hunting we went to church in the middle of a downpour and then had Easter lunch at Bam Bam's and Poppy's. Poppy smoked a ham on his beloved Green Egg and Beckett feasted on his current favorite food green beans. Holidays are sure fun with babies!

Snagging my first egg that my cousins kindly left for me!

And of course trying to put the eggs in my mouth...

Splish Splash I was taking a bath...

I had to steal these off of Taylor's blog but I thought they were too cute not to share on Beckett's as well.

What a cute face!

Photo shoot with Aunt Flash

Aunt Flash took Beckett's picture a couple of weeks ago. We were really surprised how good he was for the "shoot." I set him in the grass and he started posing. I am not sure why he started doing his hands like that but it was pretty cute. He hasn't done it since! Thanks Aunt Flash for the amazing pictures! I am pretty sure Beckett wouldn't have many pictures at all without you!

Oldies but goodies

Beckett's first Spring Break

Below are some pictures of my cute nephews that usually don't want their picture taken. However, on this day they asked their mom to please take their picture. Enjoy their posing!

Aunt Foo Foo flew in and surprised me for my birthday!

Beckett and the tulips

My favorite flowers are tulips so over Spring Break my mom and I took Beckett to Garvan Gardens. It was very beautiful! I have a new respect for photographers after trying to get some outside pictures.

Hmmm...I thought this would be a cute picture. But I guess it was too girly for him.

Playing Peek-A-Boo behind the tree

Eating dirt! He even went back for seconds and thirds.

First Haircut

Last...
Poor baby! You would have thought he was getting his ear cut off. As you can tell Beckett didn't like having his hair cut for the first time. I got mine done over Spring Break and BamBam brought him in for a super quick trim because it was driving me crazy hanging over his ears. He's quite dramatic these days!

Like Father Like Son

Beckett's daddy LOVES to eat at Cracker Barrel so whenever we are on a road trip we have to eat at least one meal there. On the way home from our trip to see Cousin Taylor we stopped and Beckett got to sit like a big boy at the table. He was so happy and loved eating green beans like mom! So I see many more trips to Cracker Barrel in my future...

Photos

This goes down as the...

WORST PHOTO SHOOT in 9 months!

Taking Beckett's picture sure is a lot harder than it use to be! Here's what he's up to these days:

-speed crawls everywhere

-pulls up on anything he can

-crawls up stairs at Bebe and Pops

-if I start the bath water and put him down in the kitchen he's there before I am

-survived his first ear infection (I did the new mom thing and we waited 4 1/2 hours at the Pediatric Care Center at Baptist on the night of the season finale of the Bachelor to find that out!)

-hate to admit it but he says dadadada and NO mama yet!

-eats some foods like banana's, crackers, and mashed potatoes while making awful faces

-weighs 19.5lbs

-loves outside and chasing Ms. Nancy's cats

-gives a cheesy grin when told "no" or "stop"

-looks just like Bradley at this age (exactly same hair)
