FLASHBACK FRIDAY

So a cute friend of mine does Flashback Friday, and I love the idea so I am going to copy it. (Hope you don't mind Deanna). Each week I am going to add things to my blog that has already happened, so you can all see some of the cute pics I already have.
This weeks flashback is on Beckham.

BECKHAM BRODY BAYLES
I was born on February 13, 2008 @ 5:37. I weighed 7 pounds 0 ounces, and was 19 inches long. I was not easy to get here. I put mom in the hospital twice during her pregnancy and gave her some other problems on the way. Then I gave my parents the scare of their life! I had some lung problems and started to get an pneumonia. I had to stay at St. Marks NICU for nine days before my mom and dad could take me home. It was the longest 9 days of their life. But I am home now and things couldn’t be better. Here are some pictures of those scary 9 days.




Wow! Mom you are so big!

I made it!



Mom and dad held me for a few seconds,
then they rushed me away to save my life




Me and Mommy for the first time




Me and Daddy for the first time

Just a cute picture
(Can you believe I had so much hair,
where did it all go!)

Watching Our Dad's Play Softball




So the little ones went to see their dad's play softball. Beckham's daddy hit a homer! Addy J.'s daddy did awesome too! (So Jenn and I wanted pictures of the two of them at the game, and this is how nicely our hubby's held up their kids, what can I say, at least we tried).

FIRST TIME EATING RICE!






So I am not so sure I like this gross mushy stuff my mom put in my mouth. In fact, I think I like my fingers much better!

I DID IT!!

In case anyone was wondering I finished my comp exam! It took me about 90+ hours to complete. With everything, including references, it came to 38 pages. I am so glad I finished and I hope it was good enough to receive my Master's Degree at the end of this semester. Now I am going to play with Beckham and enjoy my summer!

SNOWBIRD





So I just got back from Snowbird, we were there for a week! It was so nice to get away for a little bit. A week full of Beckham, games, swimming and reading was what I needed.
Hope all is well with everyone out in blog world! Have a GREAT week!

Suppose I should follow the crowd!!

Ya, I know, I should have done this forever ago, but at least I am starting now!! Our little family is doing great. Beckham turns 4 months old tomorrow and is just the best thing that ever happened to Russ and I. He is the cutest and most amazing thing in the world!  He thinks he is older than he is already and he doesn't want to miss a moment of anything going on. His smiles are just to die for! Russ is doing great, still working for UPS during the night time hours. He plays softball with friends, and of course can't get enough of XBox 360. I am just as busy as ever, but it is getting better with summer finally here!! I am still teaching first grade and love it! Teaching is the most rewarding job ever (and one of the hardest jobs you could possibly have, at least I think so). I am still working on my Masters, which I should have at the end of this summer (it's about time)!  
All in all we are doing GREAT and LOVING LIFE!!
Thanks for reading!
Oh, and I can't forget that Beckham's best friend arrived a few weeks ago! Addy J. Rushton was born on May 27, 2008 with no complications!! She is a tiny little thing, but all is well!
