Guess Who Is ONE Month Old!?!?!

You guessed it! Our Beckett is one month old today. We've had a busy day with several firsts that Beckett would like to tell you about. He's just a little guy, so we'll keep it pretty simple. 

I went to Mommy's school for the first time today.
Paisley was super excited to ride in the big stroller finally!
Mommy thought it was kind of hard to push.

We didn't stay too long, because I wasn't sleepy like Mommy thought I would be. I didn't let her get very much work done. It's a good thing she doesn't have to go to that place every day until then end of September. I like it much better when she is home with me and Paisley.

We went home, had lunch (I just had a bottle, although Paisley's yogurt looked pretty good), and then we all took a nice long 2 hour nap. I got to sleep on Mommy's chest...ahhhh, my favorite!

Paisley really likes giving me these things she calls kisses. Whatever, I can't tell her no!


I was very excited to see Daddy today when he got home from work. He fed me another bottle, but then I spit up all over his shirt. Sorry, Dad!

Mommy and Paisley put together my play mat tonight. I am pretty happy about this. It's so pretty and bright. I think I will like it better when I get just a little bigger though.



Hey! Who's that handsome fellow? The back of his hair is kinda silly looking! Apparently, neurosurgeons don't care too much about hairstyles. Who knew?!


This is what my back looks like these days. Mommy and Daddy think it looks really good. I guess it's fine. It doesn't hurt and I think my "myelo" skin looks pretty cool!

Paisley and I had so much fun playing with my new toy, that I fell asleep.

I started waking up a little and then Mommy took off all of my clothes and Daddy put water in this thing called a bathtub. It was so cold!!!!! Daddy washed me and gave me my first bath tonight, since I finally got my stitches out yesterday. Mommy and Paisley just watched and took pictures of me crying. 
I don't think that is very nice. :(

This is a picture of my shunt. It protects my brain and sends some extra fluid I have into my belly. I guess I better get used to it...they tell me I'm going to have it with me forever. It's not that big of a deal!


Mommy tried to get me dried off and warm, but man, was I cold!

Now that's more like it!

Mommy put this hat on my had, just because she finally can. We had to wait until my neurosurgeon said it was okay. It does keep my head pretty warm!



Paisley chose LOTS of books for Mommy to read to us tonight. I didn't last too long. 
All that bath stuff wore me out!!!


Good night!
I love you all!

A little of this, and a little of that

Hold on, this is a long one... it's a good thing Beckett's in his car seat!!!

Hanging out with Daddy

Playing with Colt. Yes, only in her underwear. It wasn't worth the fight and Colt didn't care!

To Nana and Pop's for Ol' Mamaw's birthday.

Snuggle time with Pop


And now some attempts at some family pictures.
Seriously Jordan!

Not bad!

All 4 of us!

Wore out!

True? I think so!!!

Action! We LOVE those kicking legs!!!!!!!!!!!!

He is WILD!!!



Oh, but the sleeping noises are soooooo sweet.



Cheryl and Eli came for a visit.
Paisley and Eli had so much fun, while Cher just snuggled Beckett, which was perfectly fine with her.


No Paisley wasn't showing off at all!

Just hanging out with my babies...

Love that those baby blues are starting to show :)
