10 Months Old

Rebecca is 10 months old today. I can't believe we're quickly approaching 1 year! Rebecca is no longer our little baby. She has grown so much in the past few weeks. About 3 weeks ago she was content to sit in one spot and play. How things have changed! Now she is crawling everywhere (no more army crawling)...and she's getting speedy. She can pull herself up onto just about anything. And she cruises around the furniture. She changes and learns so much day to day. At this rate she'll be walking before we know it. Rebecca is very curious and likes to explore...especially the things she shouldn't :) Some of her favorite things to attempt even when Mommy says no are licking the bathroom floor and climbing up on the toilet :p The treadmill (while Mommy is on it of course) is very fascinating too. Rebecca is "talking" quite a bit too. She definitely knows who "ma ma ma" is :) And she knows that a ducky says "kauk kauk kauk." She still loves music. Rebecca has been in church with Mommy and Daddy the past 2 weeks and has enjoyed hearing the music and watching Daddy play the drums :) Rebecca has 6 teeth and is working on 3 more. She looks like such a big girl when she smiles :)

Rebecca has had 2 colds this winter and is just getting through a 2 1/2 week nursing strike. We're hoping to keep her healthy and eating well now :) We're gradually working on more solid foods. Rebecca's favorite food is definitely cheese! She gives a big grin just seeing it.

Now that she is so active Rebecca seems to be starting to slim down a little/not be gaining weight as quickly. She is about 27" long and around 21 lbs.


Rebecca has enjoyed seeing the Holleboom family 2 weekends in a row. And we'll see them again this Saturday when we celebrate Grandma Holleboom's and Uncle Kevin's birthdays. She loves to watch Carson...and copy what he's doing. We're also looking forward to seeing Grandpa and Grandma Voogt in March.
