Halloween!

We had a great Halloween this year full of fun festivities!  The fun began at the toddler Halloween party at the Karsnick's.  Beckett played with his cousins and others, ate some treats and ran wild! On Halloween night, he went trick-or-treating with "Dada."  Even though they only hit up about 4 houses...they had a blast.  Beckett learned to say "Happy Halloween" and "Trick-or-Treat"  We even let him have a couple pieces of his candy right before bed :)  All in all it was a very fun Halloween!  Check out some fun pics below as well as an adorable video of Beckett talking to himself in the mirror.  He can't quite say Beckett...instead it comes out as Babbit...it's too cute for words! 

All the toddlers getting cookies at the Karsnick's party...like flies on a pig roast ;)

Beckett and Kellan...mischief!

Nugget News and Beckett's Fun Fall

We had our 20 week ultrasound of the twins yesterday and it was amazing!  They are big and healthy and everything looks great...which was the best news we could get :)  Another exciting piece of news is that we found out we are having a boy and a girl! Beckett gets a brother and a sister...lucky little dude!  We are so excited for what our future holds! Check out some ultrasound pictures as well as some of our fun fall activities!

Baby A is our girl

20 Months and Going to be a Big Brother!

Beckett is 20 months old and is growing like crazy!  Every day he picks up a new word or phrase.  It has been an absolute joy watching him grow up into a fabulous little boy!  We are sure that he will be the most amazing big brother in the world...which is great because he will be a big brother to TWO siblings in February! That's right...we are expecting twins!  We broke the news to friends and family at the end of August.  We are so excited to welcome two little nuggets into our family.  Enjoy some pics below! :)

This is how we told the Facebook world our big news...

Twin A

Twin B

 Both Little Nuggets :)

18 Months & South Dakota Family Reunion

Today was Beckett's 18 Month doctor's appointment.  He weighed in at 35 pounds and 36 inches long! The doctor predicted that Beckett will be at least 6'4" but thinks he'll probably end up closer to 6'6"...As you can imagine, it was no surprise to us to hear he was going to be a tall boy. :) On another note, last weekend we had the Jansen family reunion in Aberdeen, South Dakota.  We ended up flying to Aberdeen, thus Beckett had his first plane ride!  He did great and we learned that the secret to a successful toddler flight is the iPad and lots of snacks! :) The reunion itself was great. It took place at Wylie Park/Storybook land which was a fun little amusement park.  It was wonderful to spend time with the Jansen family.  Check out some pics...

 A little pre-flight meal at the DQ airport.  He's dipping toast in honey mustard...hey, whatever works!

4th of July Oooooohh.....

It has been way too long since our last post, but we are back!  The last few months have been great!  Josh and I have the best summer schedule EVER...we get to hang out with Beckett 24/7! We spent a week at the cabin for the 4th of July, and had a great time.  Beckett loves the cabin just as much as we do, which is awesome.  We are looking forward to many more fun cabin times this summer!

A little daddy time

 Playing with cousin Henrik...Yes, we are so cool, we wear our sunglasses in the house :)

 First tube ride with daddy!

One of our favorite quirks that Beckett has is that when he sees something new or exciting or something he likes (especially food) he "oooohhhhs!"  It is truly the most endearing little thing, and we have been meaning to catch it on film for months.  We finally got two good videos...both "food ooohs" of course.
