Rebecca celebrated her first Easter today. She started her day very early...up at 6:30 am! Then she wasn't too happy about nursery at church. Mary had to go down part way through the sermon. Rebecca crashed on the way home and after she nursed continued to nap for a bit at home. Hopefully she'll take a long afternoon nap. Sundays are always tough...especially when they start so early. Nevertheless it is a wonderful day. A day to celebrate our risen Lord!
Rebecca wore one of her new dresses...she has 4! We are very blessed. Mommy bought 2 (although technically Grandma Voogt bought one of them since we got it in place of the spring jacket she had given Rebecca that we had to return). And Grandma Holleboom couldn't resist buying her a couple as well :) We tried to get a good picture this morning...but that's tough with a little girl on the go. Maybe we'll try again later today or next Sunday.
Less than a week until Rebecca turns 1! We can't believe it. We'll be celebrating as a family on Friday with cake and gifts. Then we'll go out Saturday afternoon...GR Children's Museum, Frederick Meijer Gardens, John Ball Zoo or a park...depending on the weather and how late Rebecca naps. Any of them will be so much fun now that Rebecca can walk. She's doing so well, and now she walks around outside in her real shoes. Mary will be chasing after her before we know it.
Rebecca is still working on her molars. We think they are making good progress. But still plenty of chewing and struggles with nursing. If you click on the top picture you can see one of the lower molars...those things are big!

Awww!! Such a cute dress!! Love it!! I totally didn't realize this was Rebecca's first Easter, either. I had forgotten Easter was so early last year, so she hadn't been born yet. Is that one of Justin's new birthday outfits? I love the purple and grey combo - very sharp!
Yes, I bought that outfit for Justin. He wasn't sure about the purple at first. I love it!
