My Dear DollBaby-
I am so excited to write to you today because there has been so much going on since I last wrote. You can now roll back and forth so fast and from one side of the room to the other. It is the cutest thing, but we have to watch you extra carefully now. The other day I went into the kitchen to get something real fast and when I came back into the living room you were under the window curtains. I couldn't see you for a bit. It was like you were hiding. You are such a smart baby and very curious too!
You are eating baby food very well now. At first you hated the taste and the texture. You would gag and make the worst faces at the beginning. But, now you like to eat and are very good at it. You like fruits much better than the green vegetables, but you also like sweet potatoes and squash. Daddy and I are very proud of you. You still like mommy's milk the best and we will continue to feed you this way for awhile because it is so healthy good for you!
On 1/11/11 I saw your first tooth coming in. It has been a little painful for you, but mommy and daddy have given you a little medicine at night to help you feel better. You like to suck on your cold teething toys and also on frozen washcloths. They make your teeth feel better. I think it is super cute and want to look at your tooth every day to see how it is coming in.
We have been hanging out with Mimi a lot because Grandpa Beck went to heaven. We all miss him very very much. He loved you so much and is now your angel in heaven. We know that he watches over you every day and keeps you safe. We pray every day and night to him and Jesus. I am very blessed that you got to meet him. He was the most loving and giving man. He was a fabulous father and grandfather. He always would ask me if I was singing the scales to you. He played the piano with you when you were very little and we have a picture. He loved to hold you but was nervous about you being so little. Grandpa Beck was very musical and I think he will give you those talents from heaven.
You still wake up a lot at night, but it is ok because I love you so much and love holding and feeding you at night. You are our light. Everyone thinks you should do commercials or be a baby model. We agree. Can't wait until you start crawling. You are very close. Love you always and forever.
Love - Mommy

Hello to my Little Beeboo!
Happy New Year. It is now 2011 and we are really excited for this year. We know how much you are going to continue to grow and develop, doing more and more things that amaze us each day! You are daddy's little angel BIG TIME!
There's not too much new to report. It's been so cold that you have been mostly inside either at home or over at Mimi's. You love being over at Mimi's and playing with her and all of your aunts and uncles who are obsessed with being with you. You are getting super close to crawling. Aunt Elaine has started doing some really good excercises with you to work your cute little muscles. She's studying for her Physical Therapy degree so she really knows how to work you.
2011 is an exciting year too because daddy started his new business at Fidelis Financial Planning. It was hard to leave Moneta Group (a great company), but daddy knows that he can provide better for the family in this new opportunity. Mommy is such a tremendous mommy that we want her to be a stay at home mommy and be with you and your future siblings all day. This career will give daddy the chance to be his own boss, earn enough to provide, and be there for all of you when you need me. I want to be a great dad!
I'll let you in on a little secret. We're hoping that you have a little brother or sister by the end of the year. Mommy and Daddy are going to start trying to get pregnant soon. We want all of you siblings to be close in age so you can be great friends and be there more for each other (at home and throughout your school years).
That's it for now. Daddy loves you sooooo much!

Hi my dear Lydia Rose..........it's your daddy (aka jagee)!
This blog is more of a sad blog for you and for us. Since we wrote last, your Grandpa Beck has passed away. He died on 11/22/10. He had been sick for awhile, but it still was a surprise for all of your family. Someday we will be able to tell you about what happened and how wonderful a man he was. He would have been the best Grandpa in the world to you. We know he is in a better place and that we will see him again someday.
On the bright side, you (baby Lydia) have been our bright spot in this very difficult time. You bring a smile to everyone's face, especially your Mimi. She loves you so much. We have been having dinner every night with your Mimi and all of your aunts and uncles on the Beck side. This has and will be a difficult holiday season, but we will all get through it together because there is so much love and we all have so much to live for. You are a big reason that we can heal from this my sweet baby girl.
To update you on things, right now you are doing a ton of jumping in your jumper. You are talking/yelling/making baby noises that are getting louder and clearer each day. We are slowly moving you away from the breast milk and towards food. You have started eating Gerber peas, green beans, and other veggies. You make funny faces when you don't like it. It's hilarious! You really haven't quite learned how to swallow the spoon fulls yet, but that will come. I think you will be crawling real soon.
Christmas is less than a week away. Even though this year will be especially difficult because of Grandpa, we are excited to see you through your first Christmas holiday. We are keeping the usual traditions that we know you will grow to love (cutting down the Christmas tree, taking pictures with Santa, etc.). Daddy's favorite is when you have to get all bundled up in your little baby snowsuit so that you can brave the cold. You are absolutely the cutest little thing I have ever seen and I'm so blessed that you are mine.
Till next time.........I love you so much,
Your jagee!
