Bekah Quotes de Jour

I thought I would document some funny Bekah quotes:

This past Saturday morning, we went to pick berries at Zink Berry Farm in Morgantown. Great little place with organic berries and farm animals. Right before we left, here's what transpired:
Bekah: "Daddy, do you want to go pick berries wis us?"
Matt: "No, honey, I've got to go to work."
Bekah: "Why you got to work Daddy?"
Matt: "So I can make money so you can have clothes to wear, food to eat and a nice house to live in."
Bekah: "Are you going to build me a nice house Daddy?"


On Friday evening, Charlene brought over a turtle that she found on the side of the road. We wanted to show it to the kids. Of course, fearless Blake had no worries and wanted to go right over to it, probably to try to eat it. Bekah, on the other hand, clung to my side, scared to death of the flailing turtle that MawMaw was holding.
Bekah: "Mommy!! Hold me!! I don't like it!!"
Charlene: "Bekah, are you a sissie girl?"
Bekah: "I not a sissie girl!!! I'm a scared girl!!"


Oh the entertainment she provides!!

Look at this little sweetie...

I've never taken a picture of one of my kids sleeping until this one...and isn't it just so sweet!!! Just thought I would share it...

Much Overdue Update

The kids have grown so much since the last update. Blake has turned a year and now has six teeth. Bekah will be THREE!!! this summer and I can't even begin to think. Time has flown by so fast. Blake is starting to walk now, taking his first couple steps on Mom's birthday last week. He's still pretty cautious and realizes he can get places much quicker when he crawls but with a little encouragement, he'll be running around in no time at all I'm sure.

Bekah controlling her brother. "No Blake! It's time to take a bath!"

Riding around the yard in the wagon!


Blake's first word was "dog" and he loves nothing more than to chase Hank, Harley and Heidi around everywhere. They don't feel the same....
