On Saturday Grandpa and Grandma Voogt stopped by for a couple hours. Rebecca got a very late start to her nap, so we had some time to visit with them while she was sleeping (nice for us...not as much fun for them :P). After Rebecca got up we played inside for a bit. Rebecca showed Grandpa and Grandma her new climbing skills.
Sunday morning we gave Justin his gifts. Rebecca did a great job carrying the gift bag and handing it to Daddy. She got him a Japanese language set that is totally audio. Justin is taking a Japanese class at work and deals with customers in Japan. So we thought we'd help him along with his speaking skills :) Since it's on CD he can do it in the car on his way to and from work. Mary got Justin a couple pairs of jeans.
Then we headed to the east side of the state to go to Good Shepherd Church and then to Grandpa and Grandma Holleboom's house for lunch. We haven't been there since Christmas. It was fun to see the whole family and get out for the day. Rebecca had a blast playing with her cousins. Anna enjoyed getting some practice with a "baby" as she prepares for her new brother or sister in October. Rebecca was excited to see "Uncle Dan." And after she warmed up she was showing off her verbal skills by saying "thank you" and "I love you." And she was having fun with all of Grandma's toys.
Carson is letting Rebecca borrow one of his life jackets for our vacation. Rebecca thought it was hilarious when she tried it on :) Rebecca slept the whole way home. She was completely worn out!
Rebecca now has 15 teeth. #16 (the final tooth for now:) could be through, but she makes it very difficult to check. We are very thankful that she is starting to sleep better again.
Rebecca is really working on her colors right now. Although every color is "blue" at the moment :P She says yellow and green once in a while.
We had a great time this weekend visiting family. And we're looking forward to a fun week. Today Rebecca gets to try out her new pool. It'll be perfect for a week of hot summer weather. And Mary has a soccer game. Justin and Rebecca will come and watch. On Wednesday Grandpa and Grandma Holleboom will be here to watch Rebecca while Mary goes to the doctor. With some back-to-back visits Rebecca is learning who Grandpa and Grandma are. She recognizes them now. We're excited to have lots of time outside this week.
