We're Back!

Sorry, it's been so long, we just haven't done anything interesting lately!

Here is Beckam wearing his daddy's shoes. This is what he does when I say "smile".


We went to see Elmo Live. He seemed to enjoy it, we thought it would have been better if it was half as long.

Here is a picture Beckam took of the dog.

Beckam & his cousin Mathias

Their last night together.

Our Last Day

Here he is swimming by himself- with the help of swimmies of course.

His 2 favorite things right now...

He loves butter and I'm just happy that it keeps him busy at a restaurant!

He has fallen in love with swimming here in Hawaii.

Still on Vacation

We actually got him to smile AND look at the camera this time!


Here he is riding the Sugar Cane Train with grandma.

On Vacation

Beckam in Hawaii with his grandma and cousin.

Playing on his new motorcycle.

Ok, it's just a ride at the mall but he's having fun!

It's My Birthday!... Well, Yesterday

Father-Son Weekend in Seattle

We planned a trip to see friends in Seattle for the weekend before Beckam turned 2 (you know, while he could still fly for free), but Christine came down with a cold so the boy and I flew up without female supervision.

My public service announcement portion of the blog post is that it was super fun taking him up there for a fellas weekend. Not that I expected to accidentally drop him in Lake Union or anything, but being the sole parent on duty for a weekend that involved plane travel was slightly daunting and turned out to be a great time that I'm really glad we did together.

We stayed with John, Anna and their 2 year old (about a month older than Beckam) daughter Meya and below is the visual evidence of the lil' buggers time together.

holding hands in the car seats...



posing after dinner with Tye & Emily (yea, not the greatest photo, but was a fun dinner)...



front porch mug shots...



time to get rollin'...



very easily distracted the both of them are...

Climbing

Since we wouldn't bring him to the cabinet with the sweet snacks he found that he didn't need us after all...

Apple eating

I gave him some chocolate sauce to eat with his apple. He didn't eat so much of the apple but loved the sauce...

Easter Egg Hunting!

Easter Bunny!

He looks scared but he really wasn't. He just wanted this part to be over with so he could go back to playing with the bubbles, his new favorite pastime.

Easter Party Fun

McDonald's Play Area - The Saga

Embarking on a journey...

Making progress...

Rounding the bend...

Surveying the plunge...

A fitting conclusion...

Ouchy!

Didn't happen at the Mall, though... was self-belaying (without a rope, of course) between his high chair and regular chair. Didn't bridge the gap successfully.

At the Mall Play Area

Riding the turtle.



It is good times.



This looks safe... and a foreshadowing of the next post to come.

Playing at the YMCA

Walking the balance beam.



Sitting in the middle of the parachute.

Saying hi to the camera.

Shopping on the Town!

Got a new haircut this week... time to show it off.

It's tiring having everyone watch you.

"Boy, He Sure is Cute!" Pics

Just had a snack.



Quite the fashion plate.
