What's wrong with me?

So, my baby is a week and half shy of 5 months....where has the time gone???  I need to do a major update.  He has changed so much!  I would have thought I would have been A LOT better at this. Once I sort through pictures...and have some extra time...I'll give a little update on what we have been up these last few months! :)  Here is a picture of Beckham this last weekend though!  Hope everyone had a great Halloween!!!

Almost 3 months!

Beckham sad he can't have ice cream yet.

Beckham's Newborn Pictures- 10 days old

So, yes, I know...I'm a little behind on updating my blog!  Beckham is now 6 weeks old and I'm finally posting his newborn pictures.   I still need to write my birth story...I feel like I'm already forgetting it!!!  (I'm glad I have some notes though and I'll write it in my next post. )  I'll, also, post some more recent pictures of the little guy.  He is such a good baby for me.  He is so happy!  He cries only when he's hungry, needs to be changed and sometime when he's sleepy and is fighting it.  I'm loving being a mommy.  It is such a blessing!

A little about Beckham...More to come!

So, everyday since he's been born I have told myself I'm going to blog about the birth! Now he's 12 days old and I'm just now posting something. He was born June 11th at 4:19pm and weighed 7 pounds 14 ounces and was 20 inches long.  For now, it'll just be a couple pictures. I promise that I'll write more about the birth, figuring out his name, and how the little guy has been by the end of the week. What I'll say now though is...being a mother is one of the best things I've experienced. It is such a blessing to have him in my life. Seeing Brian care for our little boy is the sweetest thing. I seriously melt watching the two of them interact. It makes me love and appreciate him more and more. Beckham is so perfect and I love him being in our family.  Here are a few pictures from the day he was born. :)

10 Days!

So, I haven't been the best at updating my blog lately...it's been a few weeks and here is what we have been up to!  For Mother's Day we made another attempt to go to the Sarah P. Duke Gardens.  It was beautiful.  I wish I could show you more pictures of it!  While we were there our camera had a "memory card error" and wiped out all the pictures we took.  Lame!  So, now we need to buy a new camera and soon.  (We found out after looking up reviews on our camera that it's more a camera error and not a memory card error.)  Below are a couple we took with our phone's camera.

A couple weeks ago we went to the North Carolina Zoo.  It's a pretty cool zoo.   We need to go earlier next time though because it was hot and we could only make it through half of the zoo.  You wouldn't guess that we were at the zoo based off of our pictures either huh...I don't know why we didn't take very many with the animals.

There was an special exhibit on orchids.

Brian in a dinosaur egg.  I was going to attempt to do the same but I figured I would of held up the line of kids.  (Things take longer when you have a big belly!)

37 weeks belly!

We are down to 10 days till my due date!  I'm hoping that he is born sooner then that though.  I now know what all my pregnant friends meant when they just wanted their baby's born.  I assumed it was more of the excitement of having a baby.  Now I know, it's that and wanting to feel more normal again.  Did anyone else get sick of people saying, "whoa, you look like you are ready to pop/explode/burst!" Or little kids pointing and telling their parents to look at my "fat" belly.  I even had a guy come up to me in the grocery store and say, "Please, do not have your baby in here!"  Wasn't planning on it buddy!  Haha!  I am really excited to have my little boy here where I can hold him and take care of him.  I think that excitement out ways the nervousness of actually having him.  (Oh, and if you are wondering...we still have not decided on a name for sure.  We have a few, but we are waiting to see him to see what one fits best.)

38 weeks belly...I'm hoping the next post will be after the baby is born!

Visit to Duke University

Last weekend Brian and I drove over to check out the Duke University Campus.  Specifically, a church that we heard was pretty and some flower gardens.  Here is Brian out in front of the church.

Some archways...

The doors had some really pretty hinges on them! 

We attempted to go to the Sarah P. Duke Flower Gardens.  (This is about as far as we made it!!!)  It was really busy when we pulled up and were were pretty excited to walk around...well...within 5 minutes of being there I strained my back and we had to go home.  (Someone please tell me that my body will be back to normal once I have the baby.  I feel like I am more prone to aches and pains!!!) Hopefully, next weekend we will have to give it another try, without any injuries!  Haha!
