Visiting Salisbury!

Have I mentioned that we are totally in love with our son? Well, we are... This past weekend we took our little man to visit his grandparents and great grandparents in Salisbury for the first time! We had an amazing weekend! It was filled with lots of cuddles, lovins, and kisses! But, we (mommy and daddy) had a problem. The entire weekend, we got to love on Beckett a total of about 30 minutes, which was during the 2:00 am feeding, because his extended family was hogging him! It has never been so hard to share something or someone in our entire lives!

We returned home to GV on Sunday evening and the only thing either of us wanted to do was cuddle and love on our son, trying to make up for lost time! Today, Monday, as I write this post, Beckett is cuddled up on my chest fast asleep. Ahhh, this is why I love being a mommy...especially to Beckett, who was created by God specifically for Zach and Diane. He is perfect for us.

Happy Halloween!...and a few other life events...

We had a busy, busy weekend! Mommy celebrated her birthday on Friday with 10 visitors! Okay, maybe they weren't visiting mommy, but she likes to think they were! One of our visitors was Beckett's friend Kaiden. He's only 4 months old, but he out-sizes Beckett by at least double! It's hard to think Beckett will be that big in a few short months!

We also celebrated Halloween on Saturday. Although our trick-or-treating consisted of having a bottle and taking short naps, we still had fun dressing Beckett up in his tiger costume. He made the cutest tiger ever!

Then on Sunday we took Beckett outside for a walk! He did great and seemed to love it! The weather was perfect at 70 degrees, so the biggest problem we had was the sun shining in Beckett's eyes!

Today, Monday, November 2, 'lil Beckett is 2 weeks old! How the time flies! Since he's been here, we've learned so much about him! He loves to be held and be around people. If he's not in the same room as everyone else (and he's awake), he thinks he's missing out! Beckett also likes to make mommy and daddy crack up when he makes faces in his sleep. He loves his bouncy seat. Loves to give mommy kisses (really it's because he's hungry and he's looking for his bottle!). Loves to cuddle. Loves to eat. And so far, he seems to just love life!

Here's a few pics from our fun weekend!
