The Boys

Since this blog is also meant to be our journal I figured we should post a little update about each of the boys.

Trey is loving first grade. He gets on the bus at 9am and gets home at 4. He says that he is good at making new friends and still wants to be a scientist when he grows up. Last week at his soccer game he was being his usual timid athletic self. I told him how to be aggressive and go after the ball. He said that he wasn't an athlete, but a scientist. I said that I am kind of like a scientist and I try to be aggressive. He told me that he wants to be a different kind of scientist, "one that predicts things." He wasn't buying into my argument. He has learned to read and write really well and made a song for Halloween on a drawing that he did. That will be at the bottom.

Beckham loves having some alone time with Marisa while Trey is at school and Caeden takes his naps. While eating lunch the other day he wanted Marisa to take some pictures of him and that is the source of the above collage. He says millions of words, but we still have a hard time understanding him. People give him weird looks when they hear him talk after seeing him and thinking he is four (he is still 2).

Caeden is still our angel baby. He is soooo easy. He has started to get into things so we had to take some pictures to show his devil side. He attacked our one plant that was within his new arms reach and decided to eat some dirt when playing outside with his brothers. He has started to pull himself up to things a lot. He loves to laugh at his silly brothers and try to crawl as fast as he can to keep up with them - the three musketeers.


These are Trey's two drawings that he added words to.

Does Trevor realize there is a naked picture of him online? For a boy that doesn't tan very well, at least he has a line! Thanks for sending updates about the boys. Since we hardly ever see them, it's fun to see how they are changing. It will be fun to visit in a month and let Beckham and Tucker play and see Aubrey and Caeden crawl around!

Ah Ha Ha! What a crack up! I can just see Carson trying every angle with him on the pros of being aggressive. You have such fun boys; all so different, all so cute!

Loved the collages! We especially liked the one of Beckham right in the middle where he looks a bit looney. Too fun pics.

Is that a flasher that Trevor drew?! (Top pic, right side, middle pic).

I like it when you post his drawings. Very cute.

Thanks for the update on the boys. I can't get over (still) how cute Caeden is.

No flashers, sorry. That is a picture of him wearing his batman cape and a pumpkin candy basket.
