Happy Birthday Malin

I cant believe it my baby is 2! Lots has happened since he was born and he has grown so much!

Malin James Beck, only a few seconds old. One pound nine ounces and 12 inches long. He was really early but he still had an APGAR score of 7.



He had a rough painful beginning, but has become an amazing little boy.



By 6 months he was off oxygen and eating without his feeding tube he weighed about 8 pounds and could sit up on his own. He loved bath time and playing in the pool.



One Year Old. He was starting to get teeth, eating everything in sight and rolling around to get what he wanted. Weighing in at 15 pounds and 24 inches he grew a lot in one year.


18 months old, Malin loves being outside, he was crawling around and always trying to escape toys were a thing of the past he had moved on to electronics his favorite items are the phone, VCR, computer and the stereo. Its amazing someone so small can so effectively destroy something.



Two years old, Congratulations baby, Malin weighs in at 19.4 pounds and is 31 inches tall, tall and skinny must be a Beck. Malin is walking now and a total force of nature. Getting into things is his favorite thing to do. He Loves his sister and will only get dressed and eat if she gets dressed and eats. He copies everything she does and gives her kisses at night ( he wont kiss me) Malin Laughs a lot and is a happy child. Happy birthday baby I hope you life gets easier from here on out.
