Christmas Morning

Just waking up.


Why do I have to stop opening to take pictures?!

Opening his Thomas train tracks.

That was a tiring Christmas!

Fun in Truckee

Here are the cousins wrestling.

and here is Dave in a sled race.

Fun in the Snow

We're in Truckee visiting Grandma & Grandpa. Brett, Acoma and Cousin Mathias are here too!

He's not sure about being so bundled up.


Here is the entire family including 4 of the 5 dogs.

Beckam and his new rain boots

The dog park had a lot of puddles to splash in!

Beck & Oli

Here is Beckam and his friend Olivia playing with Kaazy.

Beckam & Kaazy

Becks hanging out with best friend.


He's giving him a big hug!

Santa who?

He wasn't scared at all, he was just wondering why we were calling his name and dancing around in front of him. We took about 10 pictures and there was none smiling.

This was the best of the "wonder why they're acting so weird while I'm sitting here" look.


They even let us in on the fun!

Hanging Out

Here we are hanging out at the dog park this (chilly) morning.

Beckam is wearing his new winter vest. I have no idea what face he's making.


Here he is with the ball chucker. It comes in handy when the dogs bring you the slimy balls to throw and you don't have to touch them. (Beckam can't quite use it yet though he likes to play with it anyway).



He also loves to help keep the dog park clean for all!

This was at lunch yesterday. He should have had a coat on, since, as you can see from his red nose, it was chilly then too.

His new go-to pose I guess...

Thanksgiving Fun

Beckam had Uncle Paul and both sets of Grandparents come visit him for Thanksgiving. Good times.

Here's the aforementioned Uncle Paul along with Grandpa Doug and Grandma Sandy...

Not to be left out (man, we gotta take more pictures!), here's Grandpa Don and Grandma Kathy's blog... note the video of Beckam on the swing Don installed for him.

Here's the little rapscallion along with his best friend Kaazy...

Doing calisthenics...

OBAMA!!

Our family is so excited!




Ok, Beckam didn't fully understand the importance...

Starting to talk...

I've been teaching him some animal sounds. He has also come up with a sign for "I love you" where he hugs his arms. I randomly asked him once "what does mommy say?" and he did his sign. I was surprised!

Trick or Treat!

We only went to a few houses, but Becks had fun...

Halloween Party at the YMCA

He's a sock monkey, of course...

Almost Halloween

Becks showing off his pumpkin shirt (thanks, Mathias!) and Dave his Pens shirt.

Looking right...

Straight ahead (Woo-Hoo!)...

Goin' for a Drive

Just another normal day...

Hangin' at Starbucks

So... very... cute.

Beckam's new trick

Our dog Kaazy almost never barks but sometimes he howls when he hears sirens. Here is Beckam's impression...

Gifts

Beckam got a gift in the mail from his cousin!


This note says:
Beckam, For you. Love, Mathias
(You can click on the picture to see it better)

He got 3 cars. Here he is playing with them.

Football Season

Beckam and his daddy are ready for college football season.


Beckam got a new chair.

Breast Cancer Walk

We went to San Francisco to see Beckam's Gigi during her 3 day walk to help fight breast cancer.

New Swing

Grandpa Beaty bought him a swing. He wasn't sure of it at first...

Zoo

Beckam went to the Phoenix zoo.

More Fun

Here is Beckam and his cousin Mathias. We visited them in Arizona this August.



This is Beckam having fun while hanging out at Starbucks.
