Fig Newton Fiasco!

Luke loves to eat mini Fig Newtons! The other day I gave them to him in a snack trap (a little container with a lid to hold snacks) as we went on a walk. We ran into a lady in our neighborhood who just had to see the boys (of course, who wouldn't??). As I pulled up the canopy on the stroller, here is the face we saw! I can't believe he literally smeared them on his face!

Beck's Beaming Smiles!

Beck is such a happy baby!! Assuming he is fed and rested, he smiles each time he catches your eye! I love to simply "chat" with him and receive those beaming smiles!

Also, he just started "sleeping through the night"!! We are so excited! He doesn't do it each night, but a lot of times I wake up at 6 or 7 in the morning thinking there must be something wrong bc/ I haven't heard him! I run in there to check on him and he is just sleeping so peacefully! A time or two his older brother has even woke him up at 7 am!!

19 months & 3 months

It is so hard to believe it has been 3 months since Beck was born! Here are some pictures of the two of them...Luke will be 19 months on the first of December and Beck was 3 months on Nov. 27th!

Thanksgiving costume!

At school, Luke made a headpiece that he loves. He wears it all the time while eating or around the house. He will come up to us patting his head asking to put it on...and it is too, too cute!!

Luke comforting his lovey...

Luke has a favorite blanket we call his "lovey". One day when I was calming Beck down by patting his bottom, I noticed that Luke had scrunched up his lovey and was doing the same thing! Now, when he needs soothing, he will often get his lovey and pat it next to his chest in the same motion!

Bathtime Dance

Luke has recently decided he does not want to take his bath in the evening...So Marco and I devised the "Bathtime Dance". It begins with me asking Luke if he knows what time it is....then I get very excited as I exclaim "Bathtime!" with my hands in the air!! He gets so excited he mimics me....this picture shows Marco doing the dance and Luke following him!

Luke's video

Luke has a new trick each night! After his bath, he wiggles off his changing table and streaks (literally) through the house! For some reason, he loves to wear his hooded towel around the room....Marco and I thought it was hysterical and caught it on tape!

Beckett's video

Here is a video to show all that Beckett is doing! He smiles and giggles, kicks his legs and eats a lot!!

18 months and 2 months

Can you believe it? Luke just turned 18 months and Beckett just turned 2 months! Although the newborn phase has been hard, it does go by so fast! We went to the dr. today for both boys' check-up....Luke is still on the small side while Beck is a little beast!! Already weighing 12.5 pounds! That is literally about 8pounds less than his brother! Enjoy their pictures!

Actual Halloween

For the big night, we took the boys to the neighborhood cookout. Luke was in his costume, but Beck just slept in my arms. Little Tigger wasn't interested in all the goings on....he just wanted to play in the tub of bottled waters:)

Halloween at the Zoo

We took Luke and Beck to Boo at the Zoo last weekend....actually on accident! We wanted to enjoy a fall day at the zoo before it got cold and ended up going on the perfect weekend! Luke got to ride a pony, meet Elmo and see him inside a pumpkin! And Marco fed a sting ray! Enjoy the pictures!
