First Photo Shoot!

We got to take her oxygen off while she took a bath and so we decided while it was off we would take some pictures. They turned out so cute!

Linden is a very proud big brother but he is still having a hard time figuring out what it means when we tell him to be soft. In this picture he is giving Sarah an "Uncle Nate hug". As you can see Sarah is still a little unsure of big brother.He is teething and so everything goes in his mouth even if it is Sarah's fingers.

What cute kids!

Home at last!

We are finally home and Linden has met his baby sister Sarah! She is still on Oxygen but it is great to finally be a family.

Introducing Sarah Anne Beckstead

I know that some of you don't know I was even pregnant because I have been terrible at keeping in touch, but we are very blessed to have a beautiful girl in our family. I am sending these pictures because no one in our family has really seen her. She in the NICU because she came a month early and is having a hard time breathing and eating at the same time. She has also had jaundice and was under the billilights. She is doing well now with the help of some oxygen and will hopefully be able to come home soon on oxygen. Linden hasn't even met her yet. It's kind of sad and we have had to leave her at the hospital and just visit her once a day. It is hard, but we know it is only for a short time and we would like to have a healthy baby come home. She was born Sunday and was 6 lbs. 13 oz. and 19 1/2 inches long.

He's finally decided to do it!

He took his first steps two months ago and has finally decided that walking is better.

Linden Finally Meets His Cousins!

So I am playing catch up because I have a plan since I am getting to be horrible at scrapbooking to have my blog made into a book. So yes, I have to go back to winter. Life has been a little crazy at our house since Christmas, but I finally have a minute to blog. My sisters will be ecstatic. Here you go Nat and Whit.

Linden met Dustin, Chris, Brooke, Ethan, and Garett for the first time. He loved them and I think they need to move back. They were great with Linden. I need a good babysitter like Brooke!!!

Grandpa's 80th Birthday!

Grandpa Linden Beckstead celebrated his 80th Birthday and we had a surprise party for him. The top picture is Ryan with his dad, brothers and grandpa.

First Softball Game!

Linden was all decked out to watch his first softball game. He actually left the hat on for the entire game.
