I'm really enjoying my daddy day today.  He dropped the brothers off with the Gp's and spent the entire day with me!

 

First he snuck me into mens bible breakfast.  Then we hung out and watched some scifi while he fed me.  Off to nap time.  Then we go get those brothers of mine.  Ugh....

I'm 7 months old now and loving every bit of it.  I can almost sit up on my own and I can wiggle to reach things nearby.  I am really hoping to get up and crawling soon and I spend every minute trying.  My first tooth is cutting and that is not so fun.  But, I'm still a happy girl.  No pain no gain.  I'm still Daddy's Little Miss Rebekah.  I can never be sad when he's around.  He just totally gets me.  Actually, I'm pretty happy for just about everyone and pretty much all the time.  We recently went to Uncle Adam's wedding and I got to wear a huge bow in my hair and a frilly dress.  I loved it! 

Well I better get back to playing with my toys.

I'm busy busy busy working in my office these days.  It takes a lot of concentration to move my pegs from one side to the next.  It's all in a day's work!  David is my constant companion.  He treats me like the princess that I am.  He is always on blankie and pacifier duty and makes sure I never go without.  He gives me lots of smooches all day long and pets my head.  I just wish he'd hold back on the head patting when his hands are full of sour cream and onion from his afternoon snack.  Yuck!  But, he's my big brother and my best buddy.  Adam cares for me as well, but he thinks of me as one of the "kids."  I'm eating apples, carrots and pears now.  I love to eat from a spoon.  I'm outgrowing all of my clothes so I need to unpack more!  I"m in 12 mo. outfits now. 

Well, it's time for my nap.  Hugs and Kisses!

It’s official.  I’ve done it.  I have my Daddy wrapped around my little finger.  I know he fought the idea of having a little princess in the house, but when he sees me with a little pink dress and a bow in my hair and a big smile on my face he just melts.  Mission accomplished!  It really wasn’t that hard because I love my daddy SOOOO much.  He is so sweet and happy and talks to me all the time.  Mommy gets busy a lot with my big brothers hounding her so Daddy and I just sit in the corner together making fun of the chaos and enjoying each other’s company.  Mommy likes our special bond too because Daddy is usually willing to get up early in the morning to spend time with his princess.

I’ve been sleeping through the night for about a month now.  Mommy and Daddy are amazed.  I think it’s because my brothers have trained me.  They exhaust mommy & daddy during the day so it takes a lot for my parents to wake up at night.  And I just don’t have that in me.  Especially if it disturbs my daddy.  My brothers are SO entertaining.  I just sit in my little chair and watch them run around all day.  I like their cartoon shows too, especially Mickey Mouse.

Well, it’s time for me to be cute some more. 

Love,

Rebekah Grace

Can you believe I've survived three months in this house so far?  Only 213 more months to go before I can move out on my own :-p  Actually I can't complain too much.  Mom and Dad booted David out of my room finally and Mom is preparing it for the new princess in town.  By this time next week it will be referred to as "Rebekah's Room."  However, I am a bit jealous of the lively walls in my brothers' room.  It is fitting that they are in the jungle room since they are a bunch of wild animals.  David is like a monkey in a cage when it comes to bedtime.  Adam on the other hand is more like the zookeeper. 

Mom says I am just the happiest and sweetest baby ever.  I just LOVE to smile and smile and smile some more.  All it takes is for someone to look at me and say hello and I grin from ear to ear.  I've started going to bed around 8 these days to give my parents some alone time in the evenings.  I've been great for Mom in the evenings.  I get up once between 2 and 3 a.m. and then not until 6ish again.  Mom is happy that I am so good for her.  I think we make a pretty good team. 

My brothers are a bit crazy but I like sitting up in my walker these days and watching them get into trouble.  Sometimes I even smile when David is crying.  I can't help myself.  It's what siblings do.

Well, I better get some rest now.  Lots of love.

I'm hanging out with Mommy and Aunt Suzy right now watching a chic flick.  I like having girl time.  Aunt Suzy brought me two cute outfits and baby fairy wings!  I'm such a spoiled girl.  Mommy picked out outfits for me for the week.  I am all dolled up these days.  Mommy is happy that I'm finally getting some meat on my bones so that I can fit into some of my outfits.  Mommy would be happier though if I could last more than 2-3 hours between night feedings, but I have a tiny tummy and I read that eating many small meals a day is better than just a few big ones :-p 

I"ve been having a great time at home and am adding pink wherever I can. 

Lots of love,

Rebekah

I am baptized! Sorry I haven't had to blog since my arrival but it's been crazy out in the real world. Today was supposed to be my arrival date but I've already been around now for 2.5 weeks. Mommy and I are getting into a routine and the boys just ignore me. So it's really win win. Well I'd write more but mommy is telling me to go to bed. You'll hear from me soon! Rebekah

I've been brewing for 7 months now and I'm getting ready for my homecoming. Its going to be the year of rebekah! Get ready for some drama folks. Love, Rebekah
