Happy 2 Months Beck!!! plus random pics...

Beck turned 2 months old yesterday...precious. Yes, he has a mohawk...but just in the back. Hilarious.

So, whenever I am asked...so what are your hobbies...one of my top hobbies has to be antique shopping. When I say antique, I mean cheap shabby chic furniture...not real antiques. It is probably one of my favorite things to do. I love searching and finding finds! I love finding great deals and finding that piece of furniture that is just right for my style...so exciting! Today, I found 3 "finds". From now I on I will try to post my newest "finds". So fun.

Love this!!! This says "Meredith" all over it! And...it was only $45.00. Yes, that is right. What a deal! Love it. Perfect for our living room. It is nice to have a rocker to rock Beck in the living room and not just in his room. It now needs the perfect pillow, I am on the hunt.

I think I am addicted to wreaths. I am not sure...but pretty positive. Ha. This one needed to come home with me and was only $6.50.

Ok, so I have always wanted one of these fake trees...we have been married for 5 yrs this summer. But...I could not bring myself to spend around $100.00 for a fake tree. I just couldn't do it. Guess how much??? $14.00 yep...that is right. I held out and here she is!

We have a pic of Reese sitting up in this same rocking chair...Beck needed one too.

Reese with her new kitchen from Poppy and Gigi. Mommy had just organized every single thing and this is right before she dumped everthing on the floor.

Tx game...Reese was upset b/c we made her take her princess headbands (all 3 of them) off for the picture. Ronnie and Jeana bought all of the kids Tx Shirts while they were in TX.

The other night Reese was taking her bath and I was not exactly keeping my eye on her...I was right down the hall in my room changing Beck...she called out to me and I finally answered probably after like the 3rd call. I casually turned my head and could see from where I was that our bath tub was seriously about to overflow all over the floor with bubbles. Evidenly we put too much bubble bath in b/c when the jets are turned on it just makes the bubbles multiply like 1 million times...seriously. So, after this Reese thought that she needed to do this every night...not happening. They stay in the tub for like a year...really annoying. Good memory.

My Dad, Mom and youngest sister Abby came to visit for Beck's birth. It was so fun. This was baby dedication day at church. He was 10 days old.

Nick and Reese playing Christmas morning.

I volunteered to stay indoors with the baby...duty calls you know.

Reese had a Christmas program for her Kids Day Out class. You can see her here very upset. She saw me at the beginning and ran out of her spot. Nick made her go sit down and she frowned the WHOLE performance...I am not kidding. She did not sing one word. Perhaps next time will go a little smoother? Cousin Parker did very well though!

These are some more pictures from Beck's birth.

The new definition of the "floyd family".

(pic below)

I can say that adding baby # 2 is crazy just like everyone said it would be. I didn't think this for the first few weeks...but the day I got home from taking my family (aka. HELPERS) to the airport...I changed my mind. Adding # 2 is crazy...crazy busy I should say. We are adjusting though...8 weeks in things are definitely alot better. I am getting used to the new normal.

He is a blessing!

Beck's Arrival...almost 3 weeks Old now!!!

Well...Beck is now almost 3 weeks old and so precious. My mom left to go home today...so sad. Here are some pictures from the day he arrived up until now. The pic above is of me and Nick waiting to go into the operation room for the c-section.

My sweet friend Rachel came that night to take some pictures. They turned out so precious!!! Thanks Rachel!

Everyone peeking @ Beck for the first time.

Reese was so precious the first time she saw him. It was an awesome moment.

What a blessing.

Reese and her "heartbeat". That is what she calls it. Precious.

She was checking out little brother.

Handsome daddy and handsome son...what more can a girl want?

I am in love with both of them!!!

Bobo (my dad) holding his newest grandson...my parents and sister and brother all came to visit for Thanksgiving to meet Beck. Thanks everyone for coming!!!

The 1st day he came home Reese insisted he lay down with her in her bed while we put her to sleep. I am just glad he has survived thus far with all of Reese's "hands on" activity with "brother".

What Reese has been doing in her spare time...

My dad and brother with Beck on Thanksgiving day.

Mimi had to leave today. She has been gone over 2 months from home. She first went to spend about a month and half with Olivia my sister who just had twin boys. Then...she flew directly here to be with me for 3 weeks. Dad and Abby are ready to have her home!!! Thanks mom...you are the best. We miss you.

Beckham Grant Has Arrived!

UPDATE (Friday Morning):

Check out Rachel's blog to see new pictures she she took of Beckham by clicking HERE. I talked to Meredith this morning and her and baby are still doing great.

Beckham Grant Floyd was born today and everyone is doing great! This is Meredith's SIL, Kate, updating her blog. I'm sure she'll add more pictures soon. But she asked that I add a few pictures tonight. Beckham was born around 12:30 pm and was 8 pounds 7 ounces. He is adorable and just perfect!

36 Weeks Pregnant/Cowgirl Reese

Only 3 more weeks from this Thursday...Beckham is getting big!

We took Reese to the Fall Festival thing @ Shiloh last week. Her loser mom didn't have her a costume so we improvised....say hello to "Cowgirl Reese". She ended up so stinkin CUTE!!!! Oh my.

? not sure about that one...we had fun. ( I ate all of her candy...no seriously I did)

I am "that mom". I love candy.

Reese's Fractured Elbow/Cowboys Game!!!!

Last Saturday night Reese took an unplanned for "extra bounce" right off of our bed onto the carpet. She cried, we waited to see if it was just the normal cry or if something was really wrong. Sadly, it was the latter of the two. I ended up sleeping with her that night b/c she wanted me to "hold her arm". I felt aweful! It hurts so bad sometimes to be a mommy. Seriously. We woke up in the middle of the night and I could feel that her elbow was really swollen. Nick was preaching the next morning so Reese and I ventured off to find out what was going on. We discovered after an x-ray that she had fractured her left elbow. (We think Reese is left handed by the way). We were to follow up that next day to schedule an appointment for a cast. OH my! I am thinking...Beckham is coming at the lastest in 6 weeks. We are moving in 4 weeks...and now we are to have a cast on anywhere from 4-6 weeks....I will admit I was feeling slightly overwhelmed. The good news at the doctor was that she only has to wear it for 3 weeks. What a RELIEF! We can get the cast off before we move and before baby comes. I am so thankful...seriously. Reese is adjusting well. Yes, it is hot pink! Of course, what other color is there to have on your arm for 3 weeks? You can't miss it! Everyone has been soooo sweet to Reese...cards and your texts....and meals. Thanks everyone! What a blessing in a season such as this.

Thank you to Reese's friend "Brady Blackwell" for bringing her a teddy bear to make her feel better. Reese loves it!

In other news....

I surprised Nick and gave him tickets to a Cowboys game 2 weeks ago. I wanted to do something special for his graduation present...he is really close to finishing his Doctorate of Ministry degree....and I am proud of him. (And no, much to his dismay I will not be addressing him as Dr. Nick Floyd)...ha) He has worked so diligently to get it done before the baby comes. I really appreciate that! SO...I knew I could not go wrong surprising him with anything "football". We had fun...Nick enjoyed himself. I am happy.
