Trying to catch up...

I am trying to catch up my blog, starting with the beginning and reaching to where we are now in our lives. It's only been 5 months, but it sure has been an eventful 5 months!!

Beau has met so many milestones; it has been just amazing to see his mind at work and watch him process all the steps that it takes to accomplish these tasks!

Cruising around in his jeep..BEEP! BEEP!

Finding his fingers

Holding his own bottle

Going under water for the first time...he LOVES it now!!

Rolling over...FINALLY!!!

Eating his big boy fruits and veggies...he DOES NOT LIKE GREENBEANS!

I got the idea to blog about life with Beau from my good friend Marta! She keeps the most fantastic blog about her life with her 3 girls (hausofgirls.net) and it made me want to keep one for Beau!

It has been 5 WONDERFUL months since Beau was born and everything about our lives has changed. I can still remember, plain as day, when I told Will we were going to be parents! We were so nervous, so scared, and after a few moments...SO EXCITED! After those intial deep breaths, Will was already researching online on how to "build" a nursery.

The completed nursery, Will did such a great job!!

In August, when we found out that we would be having a BOY, the technician asked us if we had chosen a name yet. I started to say not yet, but Will blurted out "Beau Bradley"~ I couldn't help but laugh and smile because now this little miracle finally had a name.

I love this technology, I can't believe how much Beau looks like his 3D ultrasound

I will never forget the look on Will's face when Beau was born, he was so happy and kept saying "he is just perfect and looks just like me"! And he does, Will and Beau are father/son twins and it's so cute. Will is so proud to be his Dad and I couldn't be happier!

It is amazing to me see how happy this one tiny person can make everyone around him. It is impossible to do anything but smile when he is in your presence. It was like that from day 1...

One of the hardest things about January 11, 2010 was the fact that Will's family was not able to be here on the greatest day of our lives. We are so lucky to have such a great family over in Australia that love Beau so much. We were so blessed that they were able to come over here in April when he turned 3 months old. We had a great time with them! While we are so sad that we can't see them everyday, we skype with them on the weekends and we are going to visit in June of 2011!!!

Some professional pictures we had taken while they were here...didn't they turn out great??!!

HE WAS BEAUTIFUL FROM DAY 1

OUR LITTLE ANGEL

SO I decided to start a blog about life so far with Beau. What can I say, other than it has been phenomonal! I don't know what I did before him, he is the greatest thing to ever happen to either of us. He is so much fun and the worlds best baby. I don't know what we did to get so lucky, but we thank God everyday for choosing us to be his parents.
