Courage Classic

Joel and I volunteered at the 20th annual Courage Classic over the weekend. We decided it was our 7th year. Gavin joined us and so did grandma and grandpop. They took care of the little man while we were marshaling. It was fun to see a lot of the same faces riding past us - lots of the kids are getting bigger. Photos to come!

Busy Few Weeks

Lot's of activity at the Beam house. In the last few weeks... My folks arrived from CA for another visit, purchased a home, moved, started cleaning the old place, and Gavin had his 4 month doctor visit.

My folks drove out from CA with their doggie and pulled a Uhaul containing furniture that's been with the family for some time. The same day Jenn and I signed paperwork to purchase a home in Lafayette, CO. We are quite pleased and looking forward to settling in. We have been going like crazy every day. Trying to work and move and unpack. My back is quite stiff. Gavin had his 4 month check-up. He's now about 14 pounds and 24 inches. Plus, he received his second round of shots. This one was a bit more traumatic then the fist visit. The nurse was not as fast.....
Sorry, no new pics just yet.

Morning on the Water
















What a great day in Colorado. Jenn and I were able to visit Chatfield Reservoir this morning and get a bit of time in on the water. We both single skied and I tried wake boarding. Great fun!! Gavin had his first boat adventure!!

Fun photos and Gavin's first boat ride!






Gavin is getting B-I-G! He now puts his hands or anything he can get a hold of in his mouth! I went back to work at the end of June. He has a babysitter coming to the house 3x/wk. They have a great time together - he is slowly learning to eat from a bottle. I think we have it under control now!!! Tomorrow will tell!

Today Gavin went on his first boat ride at Chatfield Reservoir. Just like in the car, he likes when it moves. Every time we'd stop, he'd fuss! Here are a few photos from that adventure! He's wearing a rash guard just like the surfer dudes! If the sunglasses are on - he's probably sleeping!

Grandparents Miriam and John come back to Colorado on Friday to help us move! Can't wait to see how big the little man has gotten!
