Beckam's Blessing Day

November has been busy! We have had so much going on.. after Ryan's graduation we had Beckams baby blessing, Ryan's birthday, Thanksgiving and Carson's mission farewell! There has been so much fun family time and we have been loving it!

We blessed our little Beckam man a couple of Sunday's ago. We had a lot of family and friends there to support us. Ryan did such a great job and gave Beckam a really sweet blessing. It wasnt a fast sunday when we blessed him because we had to plan it around a few things.. so after the blessing our bishop got up and decided to have Ryan and I come up and bare our testimonys. We had no idea that he was going to do that and so we didnt even have one minute to prepare so we were not overly thrilled about it... a litte heads up before sacrament meeting started would have been nice and we would have been happy to do it. Even though we were both a little angry, we did it anyway. But I speak for both of us when I say being blind sided at church was not our favorite part of the day :) But we survived! Other than that.. it was a wonderful day. My aunt Kim hosted a luncheon for family and friends afterward and it turned out great! I am so greatful for Ryan and the good man and daddy that he is!
Beckam was tooo cute in his little blessing outfit :) The night before his blessing I sewed him a little while blanket and it turned out so cute!

Ryans Graduation

This last week was Ryan's graduation from the post acadamy! Ryan has worked so hard these last couple of months during training, studying, shooting and learning arrest techniques. Unfortuntly, most of the arrest techniques, he practiced on me... But he has put in a lot of hours, including a few 14 hour days. He had awesome test scores, both written and physical and qualified shooting a shot gun and a glock. All his hard work payed off and he graduated 3rd in his class! It was so fun to watch him graduate and we are so proud of him! After gradution he got 5 days off and he starts work out at the maxium security prison on Tuesday! :)

Halloween

We had a little bit of a a rough Halloween this year.. Earlier in the day my mom had surgery so my parents missed out on all of the Halloween festivities that day. My little brother Kaden had a Halloween parade at his school so I went to that since my parents couldnt be there to help him with his costume and watch him in his parade. Then we were planning on going to Ryan's moms house before she had to go to work then we were going to my Aunt and Uncles house for dinner and trick or treating in the park at their neighborhood at five. Ryan was supposed to get off work around five and didnt end up getting off until about six fifteen. While we were waiting for Ryan to get home, Peyton fell asleep and I could not get her to wake up. So once Ryan got home, we loaded the babies up in the car and headed to my Aunts house, since Ryan's mom had already headed to work. By the time we got there everyone had already eaten and the trick or treating in the park was basically over. We woke up Peyton so she could trick or treat before everyone was gone and when we woke her up she was so grumpy! She made Ryan carry her the whole night, she wouldnt talk to anyone and Ryan basically had to drag her up to get candy! It took us about five minutes to go trick or treating though the park so then we took Peyton to a few houses, but she just wasnt that into it. So we went back to my Aunts house, ate some left over food and then stopped by Ryan's dads house so he could see the babies and then headed to the mall to see Ryan's mom. After the mall we headed up to the hospital to see my parents and show them the babies costumes. It was a busy/rough Halloween.. but still fun! :)
This year Peyton was a cowgirl and Beckam was her little horsey! It was very cute! I managed to get a few pictures of Peyton in her costume before she fell asleep.

Beckam's little cousin Colten (my little cousin actually..) are only two weeks apart. Beckam was a horse for Halloween and Colten was a cow so we had to get some pictures of the little guys!

Here are some pictures from our attempted trick or treating..

This little guy was happy and smiling all night!

After we got back to my Aunts house Ryan kept eating Peyton's candy and she was not happy about it!

Here are some pictures from Kadens Halloween parade, and carving pumpkins :)

New Job!

Ryan got a new job! He is now a correctional officer at our state prison. It is a much better job that he had before and it will be a perfect place for him to be while he finishs school. It seems CRAZY to me that he works at the prison, but at I am happy to have Ryan at a job that he enjoys. It makes me a little bit nervous that he is dealing with the people that he is dealing with everyday, but he is loving it! It is definelty a job that fits his personality well! He is still in training, but has already had a lot of very interesting days out there!

Isnt he just the cutest correctional officer ever!? :)

Well, I am a bit behind on blogging. I guess that happens when you have two babies at home! This last month has been so fun and so busy! I love that fall is finally here becuase that means BSU games!!! We have had couple little parties to watch the away games and we went to the Nevada game. It was Beckam's first BSU game and he did great! He slept almost the entire game. It was a little bit difficult trying to figure out where and how to feed him at a big college stadium.. especially since I forgot my nursing cover :) Other than that, it went great! Unfortunetly I forgot my camera, so no pictures of little mans first football game. We LOVE football season! GO BRONCOS!!!

I just LOVE my babies in fleece jammies <3

Also this month Ryan's brother, Carson got some exciting news! He got his mission call to the Belgium Netherlans mission, dutch speaking! He leaves December 14th, and we ae so excited for him! He will be such a wonderful missionary!

My brother Spencer is on his mission in Thailand and is doing great! We love getting his letters and hearing all of his neat experiences. He has eaten some really disgusting things like frog (the whole frog), bugs (with every meal) and curdled blood soup (yes, it is exactly what the name says). They have a wild dog problem in Thailand and Spencer has had to get rabies shots since he has been bitten. He has been out 6 months now, and he is loving it! We miss him :( but are so proud of him!

A couple weeks ago we went to the zoo one final time before it got freezing.. which it did! Peyton loved it as usual!

Beckam is two months old now, and is getting so big! I cant believe how fast the little newborn stage passes by :( But he is so much fun lately! He smiles all the time, and does little giggles. They are so sweet! He tries so hard to talk and makes the cutest little cooing sounds! He is such a happy little boy! Peyton is two and a half, and so so busy! She just goes all day long! She is in the funniest stage, and she has so many hilarious things to say all the time. She absolutely loves her baby brother and he gets so excited and starts talking and kicking his legs when she talks to him. I love that they love eachother! Peyton always wants to help do everything involving Beckam. She loves to practice changing diapers on her Dora baby.

After Dora was all diapered she insisted that her baby brother told her that he wanted Dora to lay by him. Im not so sure it has baby brother who wanted her to lay there..
