Beckham's newborn pictures

Jessica Ritchie took Beckham's newborn pictures.  We were really pleased with them.  Beckham did pretty good and Big Sister did pretty good too.  Here are my favorites.

Many Firsts

Beckham turned 1 month old in October but I'm just now posting it.  It is definitely harder to keep up with his family blog when I have 2 kiddos but I will continue to try my best.  

Beckham had his first bath around 4 weeks old.  He didn't love it.

We also started using the playmat.  He likes it a lot. Excuse the spit up in this picture.... He spits up ALL. THE. TIME.

Beckham had his first visit to a Pumpkin Patch although he slept right through it!

Elle enjoyed feeding the animals.  Funny side note:  She helped herself to the food they were selling when I wasn't looking... It was hidden in a stall and she was using a cup and getting some out for all the animals before we realized it... It looked locked up but she managed to get in there. SNEAKY.  We did tell the owners and paid for our share. 

Beckham watched his first Razorback game on TV.  

Elle and Daddy attended the game.  Elle went to every home Razorback game this year.  She usually lasts 3 quarters on the average.  She's such a Big girl!

Beckham had his first visit from Aunt K.  She drove across the state 

(with an 18 month old) to see us!

Elle, Barrett, Aunt K, and Beckham

We saw Beckham's first (intentional) smile and it was so sweet! 

One of his nick names is Smiley Boy because he really does smile a lot!

Elle went to her first play, Beauty and the Beast.

We went with 2 other little friends and their mommies.  Here is Channing, Elle, and Hadley.

Elle started a new dance class.  This is her posing without being prompted.  She's such a Ham!

Beckham had his first Halloween!

We left him for the first time to go to a Halloween party ourselves.

Elle wanted to be Princess Belle (of course) for Halloween.  Here she is at her dance Halloween party.

Elle's Halloween party at school.  Note the praying hands... so sweet!

Beckham's first Halloween 

He was dressed up as Captain America... I had to improvise after the costume I ordered for him was 

Way Too Big!

Princess Belle

It was so cold on Halloween so Beckham pretty much did this the entire time.

Elle trick-or-treated with her friend Cate.

Michelle, Cate's mom, caught this picture... I thought it was kinda neat. It was the first Halloween that Elle really understood what was going on.  It was fun!

The University of Arkansas Tri Delta Chapter celebrated their 100th birthday in October.  

We attended the fun celebrations!

Kyle, Brandi, Myself, and Corey. 

Some of my sisters from the 99 Pledge Class.

The next morning we went to a brunch at Leah's house.  Here are some of the babies that were there.

The girls:  Britney, Stephanie, Crystal, Ashley, Leah, Sara, Jamie, Jill, and myself

That afternoon, Elle went to the Tri-delt house with me.  She toured the house and we looked for pictures of myself and her aunt Kara.  She had a fun time!  Jamie had her making Deltas.

That about wraps up October.  I will catch up someday!
