Bella's back and all things Beck

Bella's back from her extended vacation in Florida (2 years!) and she is right in the mix.

 Cuddling with Matt, right at home.

Rolling around in the yard, going bananas.  

She is almost 6 years old, but still full of energy like a puppy when she gets outside.  

This pic features my boot, which I just off off for a test run 3 days ago.  

I'm hoping that after 3 months my foot is no longer broken.  PLEASE!!!  

She loves to pose for the camera.  Love her.

I agree with Zina--one word that describes Beck accurately--constant.  

He is always running, opinionated, but generally very cheerful.  

  

Riding Ramsey's tricycle.  He just scoots and scoots back and forth, 

and when he gets close to the street, he looks at me and says, "no, no street."  Ha!

 Cool babies!

He and Ramsey are always in the look-out for a place to sit.  

 Here he is "smelling" flowers.  He makes this crazy face and puffs in and out.  It is hilarious.

He decided to use this shape as an impromptu binky during a desperate time.  

It looks like some kind of censorship ad to me.  He is a real binky junkie--he shouts, "bink!"

    

We went to Fairfax lake, and he went straight for the water.  

He is a little cautious (he didn't run right in), but definitely wanted to get in the water and play.

This picture depicts what I am up against every day!  

Beck likes to drink his milk from a sippy cup only when he is flat on his back.  He looks around 

for a comfortable spot (usually in private) and plops down.  I wonder how old he will be when he decided to just lift his arms!  Maybe he already knows and just likes this better.
