So Lucky!!

Yesterday I was in a very nice car accident. I was going about 40 mph and a car ran a red light in front of me. I smashed right into her. Luckily we are all just fine! We did spend the night at St. Marks making sure baby Stockton in my tummy was ok. Beckham came through with flying colors too! What a trooper. Thanks to our amazing family and friends for the love and support! We are so blessed to be so loved!

Oh, My Little Man!

I lost my camera!! NOT HAPPY about that! Actually, to be technical, I didn't lose my camera I lost my Mexico bag (which unfortunately has my camera in it). So, if anyone has seen my black Mexico bag I would really like it back! Anyway, I am heading for Powell and I needed a camera to take. My oh so wonderful mother said I could take hers (and she is going on vacation too, how nice of her to give her camera to me even when she needs it, just like my mom!) Well, her camera is full of pictures so I told her I would down load them and put them on a cd for her so I could erase the pictures on the camera. Let me tell you, most of the 2 or 3 hundred pictures on the camera were mostly of Beckham. I thought I would show you some pictures of my little cutie These are all different ages which makes it kind of funny (especially the first chunky ones!)

I want to say 4 months old
Look how chunky he was!

Same day, chewing on animals

First sippy cup

Camping with Grandpa

I was watching Addy and B this day.
Look how itty bitty Addy was!

Found my toes!

This is what I would see when I
went to get B from a nap.
Crazy kid! He LOVED his fuzzies,
and still does!

This one is probably a month ago.
He loves this ball!

Such a little BOY!
He drives this motorcycle all over

Apparently driving a motorcycle
makes a little boy tired

Mmmmm! Nanas!
If you have never actually seen
B eat a banana you've got too!
Funniest thing in the world, he shoves
about half of it in his mouth at once.

Just found his BELLY BUTTON!
So funny! It takes him about
5 minutes to get his shirt to stay
up and still be able to point to
his belly button.

CHEESE!
(Oh and I am a big fan of his
short hair! Especially after
seeing pictures when it was longer.
It's all about the clean cut!)

For Real!!

So I go to my ultra sound, I am at 19 weeks and they tell me Stockton is a little small and they want to add 2 weeks to my pregnancy! So now I am 17 weeks. LAME!! Who wants to be pregnant longer? So now he is due November 28 (which is Thanksgiving weekend). On a positive note, if he is born a little later in November I will only miss out on 4 weeks of teaching (and still have my 6 weeks off thanks to Christmas break). Maybe things happen for a reason :)

BOY OR GIRL??

We went to Fetal Fotos on May 22 and we were unable to see if it was a boy or girl. The little stinker had its legs crossed the entire time! At one point it even moved its hands to cover itself so we couldn't see. So we had to go back the following week. This time we got an answer. So here is a picture of the little one!

Stockton Russell Bayles

(In case you didn't catch that, it's a BOY!!)

MOAB

So, imagine being pregnant, controlling and teaching 25 first graders for six hours, then coming home and chasing a one year old all over the place. And all the while wanting to throw-up because maybe, just maybe, you might feel better if you could actually throw-up. That would be the reason I have totally slacked on my blog. Once that little munchkin of mine goes to bed at 8, I hit the bed at about 8:15 because I am exhausted and have to do it all over again the next day. I do have some pictures of our little Moab trip, which was so fun!! Beckham is a true jeeper, just like his mommy! He loved it. He was in heaven on all the trails we went on this year. We also went to an Easter Egg Hunt and he did so good. He also went swimming at 9:00 at night in water that was not all that warm, but he loved it so much he didn't want to get out. Enjoy the pics, I sure think they are cute.

COMING NOVEMBER 2009

Baby #2!

That is right, Beckham is going
to be a brother!

I am a little freaking out, but we know for
our family it was the right decision.
(Hopefully I will be saying that next year
when I am taking care of 2 little stinkers!)

HAPPY BIRTHDAY BECKHAM

My little man turned
1

Crazy!

His birthday party was awesome!
Actually he had 2 parties (he is so loved).
Beckham came to the last half hour of my class (it was the Valentines Party), all of my cute students sang him happy birthday. They even wanted to stop their party to play ball with him. What a sweet class I have. After the students left we had a little party with some of the people at school that I do lots with. They got him great presents. Then we went to my mom's to have his big party. The place was decorated in none other than BALLS! Beckham loves to play with any ball, basketball, football, soccerball, bouncy ball, it doesn't matter. So of course we had to decorate with all of that. It all looked so cute. Here are some fun pictures of the party. Oh, and I don't have any of him digging into his cake (so fun) cause my camera batery died and my great sis-in-law took some with her nice camera, but I haven't grabbed them from her yet, so I will post those when I have them.


DECORATIONS:
A little basketball,


baseball,


football, and soccer.



CAKES:One for everyone,


and one for B!
