New toy from Marmi!

Luke was lucky enough for his Marmi (my mom) to bring him a new toy! My mom tends to be able to pick the loudest, most annoying toys for Marco and I to get to listen to!! But Luke got a big kick out of this one...check out the video!

Texas Tech vs. Texas A & M

This game is always a big deal in our household...for obvious reasons! The record in our household 8-2 in favor of Tech....so it is a favorite of mine...For the first year, Marco got to watch it with both of his boys. The last picture is Luke signaling touchdown as Tech ran the ball into the end zone again! Ending score? A respectable 42-25 loss for A & M:)

Halloween Party!

We went to the St. Thomas Halloween carnival this weekend! Luke was Tigger and Beck was a Pea in the Pod! Beck slept most of the time (although he was a hit even while he slept) while big brother Luke ran all over the place. His favorite was the Haunted Tunnel which he went through several times!

Rainy Day Activity

So, today was a rainy day and I had to entertain a 17 month old...so I got creative with finger paint! Sounded like a good idea at the time, but it ended with me folding Luke up like a burrito and placing him fully clothed in the bathtub (this was after he melted down b/c I wouldn't let him play with the red paint.....he had already done enough damage with the blue!!). Really, I wish I had the camera during the bath b/c that was when you could REALLY see the damage!

Oh well, we will try again after he turns 2!

Beckett's First Smiles

Just wanted to share with you a snapshot of Beck's first grins! I can't believe he is already 7 weeks old today! And a big boy....check out those chubby cheeks!

Luke and Beck at 17 mo and 1 mo

Here are the boys at 17 months and at 1 month....Beck even looks like he is smiling and Luke isn't trying to shove him off the couch!

Spring Creek Pumpkin Farm

Luke and Beck enjoyed their first pumpkin farm today! Well, it was more like a petting zoo w/ a hay ride and some pumpkins in a field! Either way, they truly enjoyed it. Luke was all over the place and Beck slept most of the time! But here are some pictures!

Introducing Beckett Thomas Thornton

Beckett joined the world on August 27th, 2008! He weighed in at 7lbs 3oz and was 19 inches long....almost exactly like his brother! However, that is where the resemblance ends! He is olive skinned w/ dark hair and eyes...and looks just like his daddy! Here he is!
