Birth Announcement

Here is Beckham's birth announcement, which I recently sent out. I apologize for the delay in getting them out in the mail. But finding time to address 50 envelopes with a fussy 8 week old is rather difficult! haha.

Our photographer was Julie Klaasmeyer! She is absolutely amazing... I was so pleased with her work!

My growing boy!!

Becks has become such a big boy lately! His colic has definitely improved (knock on wood) and since then we've hit some milestones. He is sleeping longer through the night, starting to take naps in his crib (for those of you who don't know we've had Becks sleeping in a bassinet since he's been born). Which gives me a nice break during the day to pick up the house and have some time to myself! We also tried out the bumbo and surprisingly he can sit up in it! I thought most babies didn't sit in those until they were almost 4 months old! I'm so proud of Becks and his improvements!!! It just goes to show how fast they really grow and change.

Our good friend, Mikie Dude stayed with us this weekend! It was great to see him since he moved to Richmond in July. He hadn't met Beckham yet, so they had some bonding time over the weekend. Becks loved loungin' with him!

2 Months

My handsome Beckham,

It's been 2 months already since you came into our lives! I can't believe it!!! You've changed so much since the 1st month. You are cooing and talking all the time, and your neck muscles are getting so strong. You like to push with your legs and try to move which only means scooting is just around the corner!!

Just when daddy and I are finally figuring your routine, you all the sudden become colic. A lot of parents tell us that as soon as you feel comfortable with everything, you'll throw a curve ball at us! Well, they were right.. haha. But we still love you unconditionally no matter what your mood or routine is.

We've slowly been introducing formula to your diet because we are running out of breast milk. You seem to be doing okay with the transition. But that doesn't surprise me because overall you're a great baby. You usually only cry when something is wrong or you need something.

Lately, you've also started to recognize your dad and I! Which in my opinion is one of the most rewarding things. I love when you see us and smile, it just melts my heart.

You've been the most amazing gift, Beckham! We love you so much and are enjoying every second of this crazy journey called parenthood. Keep the growing and surprises coming buddy!!

Love,
Mommy and Daddy

Voos Wedding Weekend

This last weekend we loaded up our little family and headed to Manhappy for the Jessa and Scott's wedding. It was an absolutely perfect weekend. They got married in the backyard on the exact steps my parents and I got married. I love it! GB's backyard is so beautiful and I'm so happy we've all been married there now.


Beck did great during the wedding and the dinner party afterward. We had babysitters for Beckham and Indie, which worked out great. They hung out in GB's bedroom and slept basically the whole time. It was really nice not having to worry about the babies and just enjoy a lovely dinner among adults.
So happy for Jessa and Scott!! Congrats guys, we love you!!
