ALABAMA

Matt, Duncan and I flew to Birmingham, Alabama to visit the Singleton's. Mike and Jenny have 3 amazing kids and we had such a great time hanging out with them. Greyson (2 yrs), Cooper (4 yrs), Matt and Duncan (8 months)

Bailey (9 yrs) and Duncan

Duncan has been pulling up on EVERYTHING....this is his favorite thing to do in our bedroom - stand at the back door and laugh at the dogs.

Play Dates!

We have been busy playing with all our friends so far this year! 2010 is going to be so much fun as we learn, grow and play with all our friends! We cheered on the horns in the National Championship game at Geoff & Kristine's house. Duncan (8 mo), Luke (14 mo), and Anna (7.5 mo)

Anna came over to play

We went to the Dunkley's to play with Jacob and Sam. The 3 mom's all went to high school together and these boys were all born within 5 days of each other!!!

Duncan loves Boston and Flynt and spends lots of time looking out the window at them.

We have a CRAWLER!!!

We officially have a crawler as of today. Duncan is just 3 days shy of turning 8 months old and he has accomplished more today than ever!

He started "rocking" at Christmas. And then the last few weeks he has been "squirming" across the floor. But this morning it has become official.

After crawling around to see different things and get into trouble, he got tired and took a nap. When I went to get him up from his nap, this is how I found him....

...standing up in his crib!

As I am updating our blog, I have just put Duncan down for a nap and watching him in the monitor. I see him crawling towards the video camera (see in pic above). He gets closer and closer, then grabs it. Looks like the child-proofing needs to happen ASAP! I'm in TROUBLE!

First Christmas!

Duncan had a wonderful first Christmas! Grammy and Bobpa drove into town on the Sunday to spend the whole week with us. We went to the Trail of Lights, Christmas Eve Service at Lake Hills Church, Christmas Eve dinner at mom and dad's, Christmas breakfast at mom and dads, Christmas dinner at Char and Russ's with the ENTIRE Beardlsey family - all 38 of us - whew! Duncan was such a trooper.

first Trail of Lights (scaled down this year due to the economy - was a big dissappointment)... First Christmas outfit! :)

Santa Claus is coming to town!

Duncan had his first visit with Santa and it went great - at least for me, maybe not for poor Santa. Duncan went right to him without a care in the world. I thought he would pull his glassess or beard off, but instead he just sat there quietly, smiled right at him and then put his head on his shoulder. He was abnormally still while mom and I shot off a bunch of pictures. Afterwards, as we were leaving I noticed a horrible stinch. Duncan had one of his horrible diapers that have gotten progressevly worse as we try new foods. I now know why he was so still with santa - he was working on a diaper!!!! SO SORRY SANTA! We are really looking forward to Duncan's 1st Christmas!
