No baby boy yet...I don't want to talk about it.
Seriously, tho, thought I'd pass along a fun Rebekah development...she can pray! Those of you who know her know that she loves the whole process of praying...I think she enjoys bossing us around- she knows not to eat her food because we "pray first!" Then, she makes us sit down and hold her hands, while she grins at us and we pray for our meals. Actually, we pray before her nap and bedtime, too- always at least twice. Every time she has fallen out of her bed at 2am (sadly, more than once), I have to sing "Mary" (Mary had a little lamb), then she tells me to "pray" and then she tells herself to "go to sleep!"
Anyway, we finally asked her to pray the other day and modeled it for her. Yesterday, she prayed on her own!
"Dear Ward...thank you for Mommy....thank you for Dada, thank you for Mamama....(long pause)....amen!"

So sorry you have to wait for him. No fun! But glad Rebes is there to keep you entertained!
Btw...who's this "Ward" you've been praying to? :)
Not sure if Gwyneth will post this to the blog or not, but Adeline also said her first prayer (without help) at dinner yesterday. It went like this:
(whispering) Dear God (10 seconds of unintelligible whispering) (very loudly) AND (5 more secs of unintelligible whispering) AMEN.
No idea what was said, but it was very cute.
I think little boy Malone is going to be born on Aunt Rachel's birthday tomorrow (April 15). It has always been an easy day to remember. We know he will come in the right time. Can't wait to meet him on Friday.

I wish I could hear her sweet little voice!
