25 random facts about beckett

1. He loves his swing

2. He is going for the ‘skirted eggshell look’ right now…because of which I often hear Rachell singing “Do you know the mullet man?” (to the tune of the muffin man song)…I reply with… “Do you know the homeless girl:..”

3. Having a dirty diaper doesn’t bother him very often

4. His favorite time of day is when daddy comes home

5. This is his cutest outfit. I got it from a friend who designs clothes for The Childrens Place

6. He loves bath time now…He’s just learning that kicking his legs results in lots of fun splashing, and a big mess for mom to clean up…Fun!

7. He only loves being naked when dad’s around… He just screams when I strip him down

8. He first smiled at his dad

9. At his 2 week check up he weighed 10 Lbs 3 oz and was 23 inches long

10. He has just learned to put himself to sleep. He ‘coos’ himself to sleep, which is really just a bunch of grunting… (takes after his father)

11. He loves to snuggle

12. He has many places to hide dirt…3 rolls on his neck, 5 rolls on each leg, a couple on each arm…but the best rolls are the wrist rolls…

13. He is wearing 3-6 month clothes comfortably already, and has grown out of most of his 0-3 month stuff. (He’s not even 2 months yet)

14. His most popular piece of clothing among the ladies are his little Champion shoes. (A special thanks to Ben and Ryanne for their great taste)

15. At his one month appointment he weighed 12 Lbs 4 oz and was 24 inches long (99th percentile for height and 90th percentile for weight)

17. He can fall asleep anywhere, and in any position

18. He hates it when I put on his clothes

19. He loves having his feet massaged

20. He’s just learning how to stand up. If I hold him around the middle, he can stand up for a few seconds each time

21. Sometimes he’s not very photogenic

22. Sometimes his chin quivers involuntarily…doesn’t have a thing to do with his body temperature

23. He loves being in his car seat…get him in the car/stroller and he can’t help but fall asleep

24. My cousin Samantha thought that he was having a seizure one day because he doesn’t have very good motor control of his arms…he’s still trying to figure out that they’re connected to his body

25. Sometimes when having ‘tummy time’ he just face-plants into the blanket and thrashes his face back and forth while screaming…
