Train Book

Pulling into the library parking lot: "Oooo Oooo the library. Get a train book."

Becket can't leave the library without a train book. I keep telling him that I think he's already checked them all out.

Growing

Felix is getting so big so quickly. It's ridiculous how fast he is growing.

Here he is at 3 weeks looking so tiny and tired.

At 4 weeks he already loved his bath.

He was 6 weeks on Easter. He was already looking so big.

Yesterday Felix was blessed at church. He was 8 weeks.

Felix was born with a full head of hair. Here he is at two weeks.

 By 6 weeks Felix had lost all the hair on the top of his head. He was such a cute balding baby.

 At 8 weeks that hair has already grown back. 

It might not be as long as it was at 2 weeks, but he doesn't have a bald spot anymore.

Our babies love the changing table. Felix always wants to hang out there.

Felix also enjoys swinging, watching his mobile, and sitting in his bouncy seat.

Just look at that handsome baby.

Lullaby

Beckett is trying to learn the song that the baby monitor sings. He keeps restarting the song so that he can get all the words right.

No More Music

Beckett went from singing constantly and asking for SteveSongs all the time to wanting no music ever. He doesn't want mom to sing. He doesn't want to sing. When I put on music he says "Turn the music off" and gets very mad until I do. I'm glad I enjoyed every moment of his singing because I'm not getting much of it now.

Baby Felix

Beckett calls his brother "Baby Fegitx."

When riding in the car and Felix is crying Beckett says, "Sorry baby Fegitx. Almost home."

Beckett is always bringing me Felix's binkies.

Beckett loves to help change Felix's diaper. "Baby Fegitx a new diaper. Diaper Change."

Beckett says, "Baby Fegitx still crying. He needs something."

Beckett has expanded his "So nice to" to include Felix. He says, "So nice to mom. So nice to daddy. So nice to Baby Fegitx."

Easter Sayings

Beckett doesn't eat much candy. On discovering that there was candy in the eggs at an egg hunt, he christened them "numma nummas." What's so funny about this is that "Numma numma" is a game he's been playing with Grammy for over a year. She says "numma numma" and pretends to eat him.

Beckett got playdoh for Easter. He's never seen playdoh before. We told him what it was and he said, "Hiya paydoh."

My Pal Beckett

My parents came up with all sorts of new games to play with Beckett.

"My pal Beckett" involves them arguing over who gets to be pals with Beckett. Soon Beckett was joining in and also saying "No, no. My pal Beckett." Sometimes when thinking about Grammy and Grandpa he'll say "Grandpa says 'My pal Beckett.'"

Grammy made up songs for every food that Beckett ate. "Hot Dog, Hot Dog." "Cheese Snakes" "Bagel, Bagel Boogie."

Grammy and Beckett played spider at the table. The spiders came to crawl on Beckett's head.

Grammy and Beckett played tunnel. Beckett crawled under Grammy's legs, and she insisted that he would never get out. Of course, he always did. Then he'd say, "I did it."

Vehicles

What's better than a train or a truck? A vehicle carrying another vehicle--like a truck carrying a tractor or a truck carrying cars. One time we saw a car carrying a bike and that was really exciting.
