Rebecca is really starting to take notice of everything around her. She is so curious. Now she'll point at everything she wants to explore...in hopes of us getting it for her so she can touch it. Her latest obsession is picture frames. In every room that has pictures she'll point to them one by one, touch them for about 2 seconds when you bring them close and then move on to the next one. She sure doesn't like it when you tell her you won't/can't get one down, though :P Rebecca is also finding all of Daddy's "toys" :) She knows where the power button is on the tv, the cable box and the DVD player. And she recently discovered the CD case. Too bad we didn't have Grandpa Holleboom put doors on that when he made it :P Yesterday Rebecca realized that she doesn't need Mommy or Daddy to put her on the piano bench to play anymore...she can get herself standing and reach the keys on her own. She was very proud. Another favorite spot to play is the bookcase. We have some of Rebecca's books on the bottom shelf...but those aren't interesting enough for her. Rebecca also knows what "outside" is and knows that we go out through the kitchen door to play. She stands by the door quite often in hopes that Mommy will take her out to swing. Mommy is really anxious for nicer weather so we can get out.
Rebecca is getting better and better at walking every day. There are a couple videos in the video album. And one video with Rebecca's newest sound..."la, la la." She'll be singing in no time. Rebecca loves to "help" with the laundry. If she sees a basket with clothes she's there. She likes to take each article of clothing out, one by one, tossing it behind her. And occasionally chewing on something that catches her eye :p Socks are her favorite right now. So far she doesn't seem to mind if they are clean or dirty :p
We're in the throes of another major teething session...and nursing strike. We are praying that it will be over soon so we can have our happy little girl back :) And happier Mommy too :P Hormone fluctuations from the nursing strike are not pleasant. Nor is dealing with a toddler that cries all afternoon.

Very cute! She's walking very well already!! Yeah!! Its so fun, isn't it?
Today sounds like it'll be a great day, hopefully you guys can get outside today. I pulled Carson all over the property in his wagon last night when we got home - he loves being outside, too. Can't wait till its nice enough to get out each and every day!
And please tell me that's a clean sock on her head in that pic! :-P
Sorry, it's a dirty one :P She got to the basket before I had time to take them to the basement.
Walking is fun to watch! So far it never gets old.
