Happy 1st Birthday Beckett!

I can't believe my Beckett Man is 1 yr old today! This past year has flown by. It has been so fun to watch Beckett turn into the little man he is today. He is growing and learning more and more each and every day! We honestly can't imagine our lives without him. It makes me a little sad that he is already at his first birthday, but also excited to see him hit all the fun milestones along the way.
Here are some fun facts about Beckett:
* Beckett is a mover! He loves to crawl everywhere, pulls himself up on everything, and he has even started to climb. We may be in trouble!

* Beckett is a man of few words, but he's getting there. When Wesley turned one, he probably said 20-25 words. Wesley was an early talker. Beckett says: Mama, Dada, ball, more, bye-bye, boo (sounds more like bah), baba, grandpa, sometimes grandma, and Spongebob (no joke!). He used to say uh-oh and dog, but we haven't heard them in awhile.

* Beckett loves to wave hi and bye, especially to other kids or babies. He loves to play patty cake and clap his hands. Anytime we are at church and someone is getting sustained, Beckett joins in the fun. He also folds his hands when we pray.
* Beckett completely admires his brother and tries to copy everything Wesley does. It's really cute, but gets on Wesley's nerves. Beckett also likes to torment Wes. He will steal some of Wesley's favorite things because he knows it will get a reaction out of Wes.
*Beckett loves food. Almost everything! There are only a few things he doesn't like: bananas (althought they are growing on him), he used to love the gerber fruit puffs but now can't stand them, he also doesn't like banana bread...go figure! I can't really think of any more dislikes, I know there are more though. Some faves: Spaghetti, Mac and Cheese, fruit, cheese, and especially Chickfila fries! He even eats lettuce and broccoli!
* He is starting to get a major temper! If he doesn't get what he wants...he definitely lets us know it!

Here are some pictures from Beckett's first year of life!
