3rd month's a charm

he has found his fist and loves to put it in his mouth!

beckham and court talking about life

my smiley, handsome boy

beckham is now 3 months old! he is just growing and growing and growing. we have put him in size 3 diapers because his "explosions" just can't seem to contain themselves in size 2. it will save me on stain remover that is for sure!  i'm predicting that he catches up to court (size 5 diapers) VERY fast. i just love this chunky monkey baby! i love every little fat roll i can find on him. i don't think babies can ever be "too fat" so i am REALLY enjoying squeezing all his cheeks!!

one of my favorite times of the day is right when beckham wakes up in the morning. he is just as happy as can be and will just tell you ALL about his night. he kicks and dances and coos forever and i LOVE IT! court loves to dance to HOT DOG (a.k.a. mickey mouse clubhouse) and now that beckham has started kicking his feet so much, he thinks beckham is dancing too! it is too cute to seem them dancing together! :)

this little boy just makes me smile, and i am so thankful that i get to hold him, feed him, play with him, and just stare at him all day long! :) i am one blessed mommy!

 

who's who?

2 months is TOO fun!

i am trying my best to get ahead of the game and post on time about my precious 2nd son. but, we are just having 2 much fun being 2 months old! here are a few of my favorite things about 2 month old beckham:

• his smile can light up the ENTIRE house! he was born with a precious dimple on his right cheek, and now he has one on his left cheek too! girls..... eat your heart out!
• beckham is really starting to talk now. he'll just carry on an entire conversation. it's really fun while he's trying to nurse because all he wants to do is smile and coo at me. i could do it all day, but we'd REALLY not get anything done. i don't remember court doing this so early, but maybe he did. :)
• he is such a strong little boy. he is holding his head up great and will just hold onto your finger forever
• he loves watching court... i love seeing him follow court when he's walking around
• he is falling asleep by himself for the most part and taking great naps!! 
• he still likes to eat/snuggle 2 times in the night which is ok by me cuz i know it won't last forever. :)
• he weighs 12.4 lbs (as of a week ago) and is 23 in. long! he grew 3 inches in 6 weeks! no wonder he can't wear 0-3 mnth clothes anymore. onto the 3-6 month tub!
• i just love this little man to pieces and i LOVE having 2 boys!

check out my post of court at 2 months old and a pic of that handsome boy. 

guess who is 1 month old already?!?!?

guess what everybody?!?! i'm 1 month old! i am loving life with my big brother court. i'm looking at him in this picture - that's why my mom can't get one of me looking at her. i think my brother is the best thing ever! i am growing so fast and eating ALOT these days. i sleep really good at night and sometimes during the day. there is just too much going on during the day and i think i need to stay awake for all of it! my mom is working on that with me. :) we'll see who wins. i'm pretty sure i've got my mom wrapped around my finger. she LOVES to hold me and snuggle and i would let her all day if i could! my brother loves to help change my diapers and stick the pacifier in my mouth. he loves to kiss me and pat my back. my daddy can't wait to get home to play with me and court. he loves to sing to me and i think he's really good at it. well, enough for now. i've got to get ready to meet santa this year. i've been really good this whole 1st month of life so i think i might get some good presents.

zoo trip

we headed to the zoo on wednesday after my 38 week doc. appt where she said that NOTHING had changed. so, why not go to the zoo?? we had so much fun looking at the animals on such a GORGEOUS day! mimi and pops tagged along with us to help keep up with busy boy. i rented my little motorized scooter since i knew i wouldn't be able to walk the whole zoo and also because that was the only way rhett would let me go. :) can't wait to take BOTH of my boys to the zoo one day.

court found a huge sand box and i think he would have stayed there playing if we had let him. 

sitting on the scooter together. court found the "horn" and i think annoyed everyone around us!
