Living La Vida LOCA!!!!

So I just wanted to post a few more pics for friends and family that haven't met our new little guy yet. It's hard to believe that he is 3 weeks old today. So far Beckham is a pretty good baby. I am doing pretty good as well these days, besides the lack of sleep (which come with the territory) I would say life with 3 kids is going better than expected. I am not down playing or in denial that I will have those melt down moments and ask myself what were we thinking???? (especially since I haven't taken them in public all by myself yet....not really looking forward to that). However, overall I would say that  life is just BUSY  :)  Between chasing the older 2 kids and making sure their needs are met, feeding the baby, cleaning the house, laundry, meal times, meltdowns, nap times, bath times, and squeezing in an occasional phone call,  that pretty much eats up most of my day :) I know this feels a little overwhelming and exhausting at times (mainly in the beginning w/ a newborn), but I am trying to embrace it! I love having 3 kids and I recognize they are only young for a short period of time. I want them to have lots of good memories with mom and dad and as a family. Any ways, enough said . Below are some pics of the past few weeks.

Tristen and Blake have been really good with Beckham. The only thing I have to watch is Blake giving the baby too many hugs...yes, he isn't a feather weight either.


Blake on the Trampoline...aka the EXHAUSTER!!! I love trampolines, after lots of play the kids are tired and ready for bed, very helpful when mommy has to tend to the baby

You forget how little babies are until you have another one...

Yes, so Blake feels sooo much bigger these days, yes my baby is no longer the baby of the family. Even though it is a little sad to think about this, it is fun seeing Blake's little personality develop. Yes, he looks a little silly in his chair w/ a tray , but he loves trying to push over the other chairs at the big table, hence his own "private" eating area ;) It keeps the peace.

he is so cute! i can't decide who he looks like yet. i'm glad to hear that things are going well-even with meltdowns-sometimes it's necessary-i think. keep up the good work and don't worry about the house-go take a nap!
