Busy Busy Becks

We have been so busy lately. I have been having trouble finding time to blog. I am going to try to recap the last few weeks.

My good friends' Sandra and Neal came home to have their daughter Vivian baptised. She is the cutest little girl. She was so good even when the priest poured water over her head. Maddie on the other hand crunched on goldfish and smacked her lips through the entire baptism! I was so embarrassed! Someone needs to teach my daughter some manners! After the baptism, Vivian's Grandmother--Grannie Annie as she likes to be called--threw a party to celebrate.

The after party...The high school gang back together again plus a few extras. It was so funny trying to take this picture with 5 kids!! Believe it or not this was the best picture of like 10 attempts! From left to right Sandra & Vivian, Rachel & Tyson, Angie & Preslie & Gavin, Me & Maddie

We have been to lots of parties! My mom and Great Grandpa Beck both had birthdays on April 11th, which we celebrated with each of them. We went out to dinner for my mom's birthday and had cake from my dad's co-worker after dinner. Maddie was hilarious with her cake. We put one piece of cake on the Maddie's highchair and she picked it up and ate it like an apple. She did not put it down once!! Great Grandma Beck threw a party for Great Grandpa Beck. It was so nice seeing everyone again. Josh's brother Cory is going into the Air Force and leaves May 11th for basic training. His birthday is in July, so his fiancee decided to throw him a surprise birthday party since he is going to miss spending his birthday with his friends. Needless to say Maddie enjoyed having cake 3 days in a row!!

Maddie had fun waiting to surprise Uncle Cory with her kazoo!

Happy Surprise Birthday Uncle Cory!!

With the nice weather we have been going on lots of walks and bike rides. One night we too Maddie over to the park and let her swing on the swings. She LOVED IT!! She started crying when I took her out of the swing. Josh and I both think tat she is going to be our little dare devil! The higher and faster she was going, the happier she was!

Daddy and Maddie. How cute!!

I love this!! Can we go higher!!

All done at the park...time to go home!
