Raising Caleb and Beckett

Happy Third Birthday Beckett!

2011-09-25T18:42:00.000-07:00

Beckett will be three years old on Tuesday. Here are some pictures from his birthday party!

First day of school 2011

2011-09-06T16:59:00.001-07:00

Today, Beckett had his first real day of preschool and Caleb went back to his Montessori class. Caleb was super excited to go back to school. Beckett was sad that he wasn't going to school with his brother.

Getting tired of having his picture taken.

LMcQ In Person!

2011-05-08T16:02:00.001-07:00

We got to go to a promo event for the Cars 2 movie today. They had Lightning McQueen and Mater (and the third car that I can never remember the name of). Of course, by the time we got through the line Beckett had had enough. I should have the official pics taken by the event photographer in a couple days.

Fishing

2011-04-23T18:27:00.001-07:00

Weekend away with family and friends. Here's Caleb's first fish. He didn't want to touch it so I'm thinking he won't make fishing a regular hobby.

Some fishing...

Caleb and the Easter Bunny

2011-04-17T12:48:00.000-07:00

Took a little convincing but he finally sat next to him and then gave him a hug. Beckett just stood behind me and screamed.

Ballet

2011-04-15T14:25:00.001-07:00

Caleb is in ballet once a week at school. Here he is showing some of his moves.

Finally hot enough for us to break out the water table.

Caleb Turns 4!

2011-02-17T16:04:00.000-08:00

A little late getting this out, but Caleb celebrated his fourth birthday last month. I have renewed my vow that I will not have another children's birthday party at my house!

Merry Christmas 2010!

Caleb and Santa

2011-01-02T18:03:00.000-08:00

Santa made a surprise visit to our family's Christmas party and surprisingly, Caleb warmed up to him and had a chat. Beckett never got very close.

Visit to Texas

2011-01-02T17:46:00.000-08:00

Playing catch up with blog posts--here's some pics from our visit to Texas at Thanksgiving.

Caleb wouldn't get in the T-Rex with Beckett so I did.

Writing and Drawing

2010-11-15T18:45:00.000-08:00

Since beginning preschool, Caleb has made great strides in his writing and drawing. I think both are some of his favorite things to do at school. He is getting pretty good at writing his name and some simple words. Here are some of my favorite examples. Pretty good for a 3 year old, I think.

Initially I thought this was a face but I think it is supposed to be a car, upside down.

He told me this was him waiting for the bus in the morning.

A "really big car."

Tracing of his hands and more practice writing his name.

His attempt to write Caleb, bus, car, and mom (the squiggles at the top).

Photo Shoot

2010-11-07T06:22:00.000-08:00

A month or so ago we had a professional photographer take some family pictures. Here are some of the better ones.

Happy Halloween 2010!

2010-10-31T17:59:00.001-07:00

Halloween festivities all weekend including the neighborhood Halloween party at the park and Halloween parade and then the first official trick or treat outing for Caleb and Beckett. Certainly partial, but I think these are the cutest Thomas the Tank Engine and Monkey I've seen.

Fall Festival at the Orchard

2010-10-11T17:28:00.001-07:00

Pictures from our trip to the Fall Festival at Butler's Orchard this weekend. Beautiful weather.

To the zoo!

2010-10-09T11:46:00.000-07:00

While Caleb and Beckett's cousins were here, we went to the National Zoo. It had been a while since the boys had been there, so everything seemed brand new.

Caleb's reaction when he first saw the gorillas.

Happy Birthday Beckett!

2010-10-09T11:38:00.003-07:00

I'm a little late but here are pics from Beckett's birthday and birthday celebration with his cousins.

Can't have a party without balloons and a giant inflatable monkey!

Eating breakfast with Caleb, Matthew, and Jack.

2 years old!

Being silly.

Riding the Bus

2010-09-25T12:51:00.001-07:00

After some mishaps on Tuesday, Caleb finally got to ride the bus to school on Wednesday. He loves it!

First Day of Preschool!

2010-09-20T17:25:00.000-07:00

Caleb started montessori preschool today. I think his first day went about as well as it could have--no tears and he said he had fun. More pics to follow from the first bus ride which happens tomorrow morning.

Random Pics

2010-08-29T18:35:00.001-07:00

Caleb "driving" the boat on our lake vacation.

The boat will almost immediately lull Beckett to sleep.

Beckett, happy at the time, but note the major bruise and cut on the bridge of his nose--what happens when your brother clocks you with a metal toy tractor.

County Fair

2010-08-21T10:40:00.000-07:00

First amusement park rides for both boys. Maybe I enjoyed watching them more than they enjoyed riding but at least we didn't have any breakdowns or tantrums on the rides.

Visit to the Farm

2010-07-06T18:04:00.000-07:00

We recently visited a farm managed by a local park authority. Beckett doesn't get excited for anything like he does for animals. Caleb was quite a fan too. We saw cows, sheep, goats, horses, pigs, turkeys, ducks, rabbits, chickens and peacocks. I think the ducks were a favorite as there were at least 20 baby ducks swimming in the little pool, still young enough to be fuzzy and cute.

At the Sprayground

2010-06-27T16:44:00.001-07:00

Another hot day led us to the local "sprayground." They were both tentative at first but they eventually ended up soaked.

Beckett surveying the water.

B yelling for something.

Caleb worn out.

Thats Caleb in the green shirt running from the water.

Playing in the Pool

2010-06-27T16:34:00.000-07:00

Very hot here lately, even for a Texas girl. We cooled off my playing in a rather large inflatable pool on the deck.

Caleb was in a mood...

...it rubbed off of Beckett.

Trip to PA

2010-06-20T18:07:00.000-07:00

We had a lovely weekend planned of seeing old friends and riding the "real" Thomas the Train in Pennsylvania, but unfortunately both boys got sick during the trip. We still ended up riding Thomas, but as you can see, neither of the boys look very happy in the pics. Maybe next year...

Beckett on the train.

Caleb on the train. Under normal circumstances, I don't think he would have been sitting still.

Trip to NC

2010-06-20T17:52:00.000-07:00

Last weekend we went to North Carolina to celebrate Caleb and Beckett's cousin's 3rd birthday and to see their other cousin, Tia, Uncle, and Nani. The boys had a blast, as evidenced by the pictures.

Big Truck Day

2010-05-07T11:05:00.000-07:00

Some photos from "Big Truck Day." The things I have to do with two boys...

Curly Top

2010-05-02T16:37:00.000-07:00

Caleb's curls seem to come and go but with the recent humidity they have returned. Too bad he needs a haircut.

Music Class

2010-04-30T11:37:00.000-07:00

We've been going to "music and movement" class every Friday for a while now. We're switching sessions to Sunday soon and that means a new teacher, so I decided to take some pictures at their last Friday session.

Caleb somersaulting down the ramp. Beckett climbing.

My little rock climber in the making.

The "boat" is a favorite.

Bubble time is another favorite.

The Playseum

Some pics from the "playseum" that we tried out this weekend.

Their dream come true--a big sandbox with lots of trucks...

and hard hats!

Riding in trucks.

Another highlight--grocery shopping.

Favorite Park

2010-04-18T17:30:00.000-07:00

We got to visit our favorite playground not once, but twice this weekend. Amazingly we still needed hats and winter coats on today.

You would think the car was actually moving.

Crazy Boys

2010-04-11T17:48:00.000-07:00

Just some craziness that ensued at a restaurant when we were out to dinner. Not sure why we take them out of the house.

White House Easter Egg Roll

2010-04-05T15:21:00.000-07:00

Not sure I'll be repeating this experience anytime soon, given the crowds, lines, heat, etc. I think Caleb had a pretty good time though. No Obama sightings unfortunately.

This was while we were in line, not yet even to the South Lawn.

An egg hunt

Happy Easter 2010

2010-04-04T17:39:00.000-07:00

We had a pretty quiet Easter with a couple more egg hunts yesterday and today (and a special one tomorrow that I'll post about later). Here are the boys hunting eggs at our house that the Easter Bunny hid for them.

Beckett loves to give hugs. Caleb just laughs.

Budding Photographer

2010-03-28T16:24:00.000-07:00

For some reason, Caleb remembered yesterday that he received a camera for Christmas (that he probably hasn't touched since Christmas day). Anyway, he is all about taking pictures now and is kind of getting the hang of it. I think the majority of pictures were of the floor or sofa cushions but he did manage to get some of the family and his favorite toys. Here's a sampling:

Easter Egg Hunt!

2010-03-27T16:27:00.000-07:00

Probably the first of many egg hunts this season--we returned to Price Farm for a terrific afternoon of food, hunting easter eggs, and watching the farm's animals. I didn't get many decent pictures outside since I was assisting with egg hunting, but here's some from inside the wonderful farm house.

I wonder what Beckett is thinking.

I never get both of them to look at me at the same time. And Beckett just doesn't ham it up for the camera like his brother.

Skeptical of something I said...

Spring!

2010-03-22T17:44:00.000-07:00

We finally got outside for some quality play time this past weekend.

And here they are reading books in each other's chairs.

Ties

2010-03-05T15:59:00.000-08:00

Not a fun occasion, but the boys made the best of it. I can't seem to get them both in focus at the same time.

Just Becks

2010-02-07T14:02:00.000-08:00

Beckett usually gets short changed on the photo ops, largely because he is never still and it is hard for me to catch him with the camera. Caleb has always been much more of a poser for the camera. I got lucky this weekend, though. Here's some of just Becks.

BIG Snow!

2010-02-07T13:50:00.000-08:00

As I'm sure everyone heard, we had a major snow storm this weekend. We finally got out of the house today. Caleb likes the snow but not enough to really play in it. Beckett was not a fan. We got so much snow that if either of them had actually stepped into the snow off the shoveled path, the snow would have swallowed them up.

Here's in the midst of the storm, my car almost disappeared.

Beckett not enjoying the snow.

I was trying to convince Caleb to make a snowball. Beckett still not a fan.

Caleb with Flat Stanley (Karoline--this is for you!)

Happy Birthday Caleb!

2010-01-15T18:11:00.000-08:00

Caleb turned 3 last weekend. He seems very interested now in getting older and bigger, which is a little scary to me. He speaks often of what he will do when he gets bigger--including making himself meals, driving my car or his Dad's car, going to school, etc. They grow so fast!

Here are some recent pictures of Beckett. He had to get another haircut recently, which makes him look much older.

Here's to a great 2010!

2010-01-03T17:25:00.000-08:00

Caleb got to ring in the new year (well, not at midnight but in the morning) with his friend, Jonathan. As usual, he was all smiles.

Merry Christmas!

2009-12-27T13:42:00.000-08:00

No great pictures from Christmas Day, but here's a hug between brothers that kind of looks painful for Beckett. Merry Christmas everyone!

Christmas Photo Try

2009-11-22T18:13:00.000-08:00

These didn't come out as nice as I would have liked, but I'm not waiting for the perfect picture this year to make Christmas cards!

Hanging out in PJs

2009-11-15T18:41:00.000-08:00

I'm making a concerted effort to try to get photos of Caleb and Beckett together. Not as easy as it sounds! Note that there is not much size difference at this point even though they are 20 months apart in age.

Some B&Ws

2009-11-08T17:21:00.000-08:00

Happy Halloween!

2009-11-02T16:33:00.001-08:00

Caleb was a triceratops and Beckett was a tiger. Neither were really fond of their hoods that completed the costumes, but cute just the same.

Caleb's Creations

2009-10-18T17:37:00.000-07:00

Caleb is getting quite creative and recently made a train (books for the track, various vehicles for the train cars) and his version of a car transporter (see pics below.)

Crying because Beckett dared to touch one of the cars.

Giving the evil eye.

With his makeshift "car transporter."

Beckett's First Haircut

2009-10-07T15:19:00.000-07:00

Poor baby, but it had to be done.

Happy Birthday Beckett!

2009-09-28T17:29:00.001-07:00

Beckett turned one on Sunday. He is walking really well now and enjoying the mobility. He has two molars coming in, which will make the tooth count 9. I think Caleb enjoyed the birthday party just as much as his brother given all of the presents.

Catch Up

2009-09-14T17:04:00.000-07:00

We've had a chaotic few weeks but here are some pictures to catch everyone up.

Here's Caleb playing dress-up when he was supposed to be napping.

And Caleb finally telling me to not take his picture. I was wondering when that was going to happen.

Here's my baby who will be 1 year old in less than two weeks. Boy does he need a haircut!

Gravelly Point Park

2009-08-08T17:00:00.000-07:00

We hadn't been to this park in a while (you can watch the airplanes take off and land at National Airport), and I'm not sure why because I really like coming here. Caleb was much less excited this time (for the first time see http://calebandbeckett.blogspot.com/2008/09/airplanes.html) but was still interested. Beckett was just trying to figure out where the loud noise was coming from. Then of course I made them sit next to each other for pictures, which never really works out.

Funny Voice

2009-08-06T18:04:00.001-07:00

Wait for the end--you'll see what happens when a 2 year old doesn't get enough sleep.

Playing at the Park with Matthew

2009-08-04T18:19:00.003-07:00

From a recent visit to the grandparents--Caleb had a blast with his cousin.

10 Months Old!

2009-07-26T18:06:00.000-07:00

Beckett will be 10 months old tomorrow. It really does go by so fast. He is starting to babble and has said mama a few times. He is working on teeth #5 and 6. He is cruising and can stand on his own for a few seconds. Should be walking in no time! Here are some recent pictures of my curly haired boy.

Love those cheeks!

In a size 18 mos shirt that is way too tight!

Beckett Monster

2009-07-05T11:02:00.000-07:00

Here's part of the reason why we call him Beckett Monster.

Happy July 4th!

2009-07-04T19:11:00.000-07:00

Cheeks and Curls

2009-06-24T18:12:00.001-07:00

The cheeks keep getting bigger and the hair keeps getting curlier!

Beckett is now crawling all over the place and can pull up to standing if he can get a good grip onto whatever he is pulling up on (like his crib). We call him Beckett Monster because he likes to growl. Especially when I try to redirect him away from something he is not supposed to be messing with. He'll be 9 months old on Sunday!

Crawling and Singing

2009-06-08T16:29:00.001-07:00

Beckett learning to get the hang of crawling and Caleb finally singing for the camera.

Love of Puzzles

2009-06-01T18:10:00.000-07:00

A long pretty boring video but I could not resist capturing Caleb's love of puzzles.

Hospital Visit

2009-05-25T16:36:00.001-07:00

Second ER visit for Beckett today. Not really a big deal but with the holiday I had to take him to the ER. Turns out he has croup and an ear infection. You can't tell he was feeling bad at all from these pictures (taken with my phone, thats why they're so grainy).

Water Play

2009-05-24T19:14:00.000-07:00

Caleb has a water table (sorry, TX Grandma) that he loves to play with. And this weekend we broke out the big ball sprinkler. Beckett just laughs while watching his brother play.

Quotes #6

2009-04-18T16:49:00.000-07:00

"Mommy, why is that boy wearing jammies?" (As he points to a woman in the grocery store wearing sweatpants.)
"Whatcha doing Beckett?"
"Caleb doesn't like poop!"
"I want to be so silly."

First Bath Together!

2009-04-15T17:09:00.000-07:00

First of many, I'm sure.

More Egg Hunting

2009-04-15T16:39:00.000-07:00

Beckett as a bunny at his daycare Easter party:

Caleb doing the hunting for his brother at the party:

And on Easter day (Beckett was sleeping):

Easter Bunny Visit

2009-04-10T17:53:00.001-07:00

Not sure why we bothered. We'll be waiting five years before we try this again.

Playing at Home

2009-04-06T16:35:00.000-07:00

Beckett is doing great now at sitting up and rolling over. Shouldn't be long before he is crawling!

Caleb loves doing puzzles now. He can be quite focused while doing them...

until he sees that his brother has one of his toys.

Wagon Ride

Easter Egg Hunt

2009-04-06T16:27:00.000-07:00

I think this is the first of many for this Spring. Thanks to Farmer Price and Marcela and Michel for a great time!

First Black Eye

2009-03-25T17:12:00.000-07:00

Not necessarily the greatest milestone to capture but it was only the result of Caleb's clumsiness (he gets that from me). This is several days after the incident happened that gave him the black eye and you can still see it. (He was running on our bed and fell off. And no, he didn't learn his lesson.)

6 months old

2009-03-25T16:57:00.000-07:00

Beckett will be 6 months old on Friday. He has started eating oatmeal cereal and we'll probably start with a veggie this weekend. He is now a rolling machine and can no longer be left on a bed or anywhere else that is up off the ground because he will find himself on the edge very quickly. We can only assume that the first tooth cannot be far away because he drools and chews constantly. He is enamored with his big brother--Caleb gets the biggest laughs from Beckett. Caleb loves to give Beckett kisses and hugs, but he still doesn't want to share most of his toys.

I finally caught some smiles.

And a kiss.

Quotes #5

2009-03-25T16:55:00.000-07:00

"What's that?" I think we hear this about 50 times a day.
"What's Daddy (or Mommy, Beckett, Aurora, etc) doing?" ditto
"I want to touch the sky."
"Beckett is my best buddy."

Beckett Bear

2009-03-09T16:59:00.003-07:00

Right after Beckett was born, some family members gave us a teddy bear as a present for Beckett. Caleb immediately adopted the bear--we kept telling him "That's Beckett's bear." The name morphed to Beckett Bear over time, one of several beloved "buddies" of Caleb's. I don't think Beckett will be getting his bear back.

5 Months Old

2009-03-08T16:43:00.000-07:00

Well a little late, but we shot some photos to commemorate the 5 month anniversary of Beckett's birth.

And Caleb at almost the same age as Beckett is now:

I find it interesting that even though Beckett is a very smiley baby I have a hard time catching his smiles with the camera. With Caleb, I barely have a picture of him from this age without him smiling. I think Caleb always hammed it up for the camera (and still does sometimes) but Beckett is much more intrigued by what I'm doing. I'm sure its an insight into their personalities.

Quotes #4

2009-03-08T16:39:00.000-07:00

"Caleb needs to see a back hoe loader, a front end loader ... and a bulldozer."
"I'm ok." (Said after his repeated falls--he now preempts our question of if he is ok; probably his first use of "I.")
"That's a man. That's a daddy actually." (New favorite word is "actually.")
"Caleb Oatmeal" (trying to say his full name)
"Beckett Hungry" (trying to say Beckett's first and middle names)

Beckett Laughing

2009-02-25T17:31:00.000-08:00

He can do better than this but its hard to catch it on video.

Caleb Earning His Keep

2009-02-25T17:18:00.000-08:00

Yes, we're training him early.

Quotes #3

2009-02-23T16:43:00.000-08:00

"Caleb wants a balloon." (To random strangers at the grocery store.)
"Dump truck needs oatmeal and water."
"Caleb has a butt. Mama has a butt."

Big Boy

2009-02-21T16:50:00.000-08:00

Beckett is off the charts for height and weight. At his 4 month appointment he weighed 18lbs 5oz and was 28" long. Here he is playing in the exersaucer.

And big brother...

Visiting Karoline and Julianna

2009-02-17T16:50:00.000-08:00

Caleb and Beckett had a blast visiting Karoline and Julianna in North Carolina this past weekend. I think they're both in love now.

What a doll.

Jack!

2009-02-17T16:43:00.000-08:00

We got to meet Caleb and Beckett's new cousin Jack this past weekend. He is beautiful.

Jack and Beckett have about the same birth weight. Amazing how big they can get in 4.5 months!

Quotes #2

2009-02-16T16:37:00.001-08:00

I probably need to start making some notes during the week because I know he said some funny stuff but I can't remember it all.

"You're cute." (To our 4 year old friend Karoline.)
"Caleb is funny and crazy and silly."
"Knock knock. Who's there? Hehehe." (His first attempt at telling a joke but there was no punch line.)

And the moment I wish I had on tape--I was rocking Beckett and singing to him when Caleb came into Beckett's room, walked over to the rocking chair and sang "Twinkle, Twinkle Little Star" without any prompting.

Quotes of the Week #1

2009-02-08T17:20:00.000-08:00

In an effort to force myself to post at least something once a week, I'm going to start posting the funniest/cutest/weirdest things that come out of Caleb's mouth every week. Of course, once I understand what Beckett is saying he'll get the same treatment.

In the category of came up with on his own:
"Caleb really needs a truck sticker."
"Mommy really needs cheese." (How'd he know?)
"Caleb really needs french toast."
"Mama hair will not get Caleb."
"Beckett can ride the bus home."

(He has apparently recently learned what it means not to just need something, but really need it. He also has not mastered the use of "I" and still refers to himself in the third person. He is also petrified of all of my hair that is all over the place because of postpartum hormone craziness.)

In the category of parroting something he heard someone say:
"Caleb is a vapo-rub junkie." (His Dad said this after he asked for vapo-rub incessantly.)

Milestones

2009-02-08T16:53:00.000-08:00

Caleb and Beckett had quite an eventful January. Of course they got to be about 5 miles from the swearing in of our 44th president but I don't think they'll remember any of it. As far as other things go, Caleb has been doing really well with potty training. He is potty trained now except for naps and nighttime and I think we're pretty close with the naps. So nice to be free of diapers with at least one. He also recently transitioned to a big boy bed (we just converted his crib to a toddler bed). He seems to like it and has only fallen out a couple of time so far! At his two year appointment, he weighed 26.5lbs (around 25th percentile) and was 35" tall (60th percentile). I still have him in mostly size 18mos pants because he is such a skinny minny. I think his brother will be catching up to him soon in the clothes department.

Beckett has found his toes and learned how to take off his socks (just like his brother). Poor baby also had his first ear infection and some viral thing that gave him ulcers in his mouth. The non stop crying during the Super Bowl led to baby's first trip to the ER. Not fun. He seems mostly recovered now and loves to babble. He was 17.5 lbs at the ER. We have his 4 month appt this week.

Here's Caleb at the park this weekend.

Here's Becektt in the bumbo seat watching us eat dinner. He just sits there and stares and drools while we eat.

Sweet Beckett

2009-01-19T10:06:00.000-08:00

Beckett is still growing like a weed--had to pull out the size 9 month clothes the other day (he's not quite 4 months old). He still likes his sleep and really likes to snuggle up to sleep, which I'm trying to not do too much for fear of "spoiling" him. He has also recently learned how to roll from back to tummy and has become a master at getting limbs stuck in the crib rails.

Birthday and a New Haircut

2009-01-18T16:41:00.000-08:00

Caleb celebrated his second birthday last Saturday with a low key family party. He also got a new haircut which he was way overdue for.

Playing Basketball

2009-01-18T16:23:00.001-08:00

Caleb very much enjoys his basketball hoop he got for Christmas from Nani and Granddad.

Christmas 2008

2008-12-26T17:53:00.001-08:00

Caleb and Beckett had a quiet Christmas with Mom, Dad, and Grandma from Texas. Gift highlights were a train set (from Santa for Caleb), a big red wagon (for both boys from Grandma), and books (for both from Mom and Dad). Merry Christmas to everyone!
