I am 3 months old today

Beckett @ 3 months

I am a happy, smiley sort of guy

I have discovered my hands and feet

I am becoming a great napper

Nothing brings me delight like the attention of my siblings

I am a thumb sucker

I am making all kinds of sounds and discovering my voice

Everyone says I look so much like my brother and sister

I have my first cold

I have slept as long as 6 hours at night

I am reaching and grasping for things

Beach weekend

Some photos from our annual trip to Lincoln City on the Oregon Coast. Kids had a blast and we got to have Oma, G-Pa and Nana and Papa join us this year!

I am 2 months old

I am 11lbs, 14oz and 23 inches long
I am smiling all the time
I burp like a champ
I am starting to like my swing
I am still very much enjoying studying the ceiling fan
I can break out of a swaddle in 2 mins flat
My brother and I have long conversations
I am still rockin' a faux hawk

Kindergarten

Here we go! Cole started kindergarten last week and it hit us hard. When did he get so big? He was a mixture of nervous and excited to start. As happy as I am for him to start his school career, I do miss him so very much during the day. And so does Stella. I am so glad we have had the first five years together. 

After the first day, he told me he had decided to quit kindergarten.

After the second day, he wanted me to not sign him up for kindergarten next week.

After the third day he had made a new friend, decided recess was his favorite part of the day, and that he wants to go to kindergarten every day.

And because I'm nostalgic, a picture of Cole on his first day of preschool, two years ago. *sniff*

I am one month old today

Beckett at one month

I am a grunter and a snorter

I have huge, brown eyes

I have awesome hair - a natural faux hawk and sideburns

I love my pacifier

I like being on car rides

I am very intrigued by ceiling fans

I have a sister and brother that like to help take care of me

I am a great eater and I'm getting big fast

Well this three kid thing is no joke. We are in the trenches and trying to figure it all out, and loving our new addition. So far little Beck seems to go with the flow and even though we're not getting much sleep, he's otherwise a pretty easy baby. Stella is doing a good job as a big sister, always my helper for diaper changes. Cole seems to enjoy having another boy around, he's already starting to teach Beckett about Legos and monster trucks. 

So, if you see a frazzled mom at a store with what appears to be a three ring circus...give her a break. She's probably just hanging on and dire need of caffeine!

A few more pictures of our new little buddy...

Party of Five

We are so excited to introduce our sweet son Beckett!

Beckett Jace Pearson
Born July 29, 2013 at 4:24am
6lbs, 15oz and 19in

I was blessed with a peaceful and easy delivery and he is just perfect! He has lots of dark hair, big almond shaped eyes, long fingers and toes and the cutest chubby cheeks. We are all feeling well and enjoying our first day together.

We are simply smitten! More photos to come.
