Water Baby

Beckster is in love with the ocean. When we went to the beach the other day, Brendon and I had barely set up the umbrella and towels and sat down and we notice Beckham is crawling toward the water. He hadn't been on the ground for one minute before he started crawling toward the ocean. He doesn't mind the salt water at all...he will just splash for hours on end.

8 Months

Beckham is busier than I ever imagined. He keeps me running after him all day...especially now that he is crawling!

Some of the new stuff:

*Tooth #2

*Crawling

*Pulling himself up on things

*Pushing himself to sitting position alone

*Says "mama, mom, and mamamama" all the time (I realize he has no idea what he's saying...but it's still fun to pretend like the gibberish has meaning)

*Pulls at the hair behind his ears when he's tired

*He is a MANIAC wrestler every morning

*Loves to smile at people...especially other kids

*Still has the fluffiest, most un-manageable hair in the world :)

*LOVES water (and doesn't mind salt water)

Aloha

Brendon has a three week spring break from school, so we decided to do a spontaneous last-minute trip to Hawaii. We are having a great time. I am enjoying re-exploring places I loved as a freshman at school here. Beckham is having a blast crawling around on the sand (yes...he learned to crawl!) Brendon is just thrilled to have a few weeks with no homework!

To Grandmother's House We go

Last weekend we took a quick trip up to my parent's house so we could enjoy one last chance to snowmobile before the spring melts all the snow. The snow was amazing and we all had a great time.

Big Pimpin'

Beckham took a ride around the courtyard with the ladies. He was all leaned back and loving it.
