Happy Riley Jane!
This is much sweeter!
Rebekah loves to mother RJ! She said the other day, "Mommy, I want to feed her! I need to feed Riley Jane!" So began Rebekah constantly holding, feeding, and general care-taking of her cousin. RJ is a great sport!
Rebekah with her other cousin, Olivia- they are a great pair! Both are big sisters of sweet baby brothers, so they compete on who can boss the other more!
A flashback to our second trip to the beach with Nana. R was a huge fan of her floaties!
My sweeties...
My first birthday celebration with Mike and Phyllis
Rebekah is still keeping us on our toes. She has added "I need to __" to her vocabulary, such as "I want to see, no I need to see Mamama and Grandi!" or "I need to eat that."
She can also correctly identify Bluejays and they frequent her imaginative stories.
We have had parties galore this week for bdays, showers, and other things and R has been LOVING it! She is sure we need to sing Happy Birthday at each gathering and it has been delightful to see her social personality emerge!
Luke has been up and down- he has been fighting his bottle at times, which is strange, but I guess if he were nursing, I wouldn't know he took less...he has been better-behaved the past 2 days, but for a couple days her was fussing more. His eyes have been really watery and glassy and he has been sneezing and has had snot- I am wondering if he has allergies that are specific to this house. My brother's allergies flare up here- it's an older home...anyway, just a thought.
Luke will be 4 months tomorrow- crazy! He has a precious smile and laugh and is a sweetie- most of the time!

No wonder you have been in stealth mode lately, so many parties. :) Glad to see your smiling faces again.
OK, I just have to point out in the first picture, the eyes. I have always thought your kids have your mothers eyes but look at the shape of your dad's and then your kiddos...I think he may have something to do with it! I know, weird, but I love genetics and trying to figure them out.
Excited for your trip to the Mayhalls! I'd love to sit Candice down now that I've had kids to ask her about sharing, etc. I'm sure she's got a wealth of wisdom...Have a great time! Tell Jason and Candice hello. Oh and R is seriously capable of starting Kindergarten this next year :)
I have been hoping you would post soon! :)
Oh I miss Rebekah so much! And you too of course! It was great to hear her voice and I LOVE the first picture with her half pint attitude! You all look great!
