Sick 5 month old...

Beckham has not been feeling well. He woke up yesterday with bad congestion and a fever. It is the worst thing to have a sick baby and not be able to help him. I wish I could just teach him how to blow his nose! He would feel so much better and it could be so simple! So for the past two days he and I have just been at home watching TV and playing. He has moments when he is very playful but he is mostly still and quiet. I have been told to cherish every moment because time flies and he will be grown before I know it. So although it is sad to hear him coughing. I will cherish his stillness and just hold him close until he feels better. Below is a picture of him while I am typing - he is so cute :-)

Life as a Mom

I am enjoying motherhood. I get to stay at home and be with Beckham EVERY day. I am so very lucky. Beckham is almost 5 months old and I finally feel like I am getting the hang of my new job as a 'mommy'. We have gotten on a good schedule and love to spend our days loving one another. It is so awesome to see him growing and learning new things every single day...

Below are some milestones that you all might have missed since I haven't blogged in FOREVER!

Beckham was born on August 31 - 7 lbs 5 ounces - 21.5 inches!




Beckham had his first bath at home - Rob was very good! Beckham loved the water going over his head!!



Beckham was dedicated at our home church FBC Lewisville - that was our last Sunday there - Rob got a new job at Bent Tree Bible Fellowship doing Worship for the youth. He loves BTBF and we are very excited to become a part of that community!




Beckhams first Halloween he was a guitar! He was adorable!




Beckham got a new cousin! Lawson Noel Porter was born on December 21! Beckham is going to be out numbered with Lawson and Brighton being girls ... and in May the Irwins will have another girl! I am afraid Beckham will for sure be dressed as a girl and called 'becky'...



Christmas was very fun! Beckham was spoiled rotten with all kinds of toys and
clothes from Grammy, Pops, Mossy, Doc, and all the extended family -
he sure is a lucky boy!!





I am making it a point to add 'blogging' to my daily routine - so this should be updated often :-)
