Four Months!

Dearest Rebekah,

At four months old you love to slobber all over your tiny little fists as you shove them in your month. You love laughing and will smile at almost anything. You love cuddling with mommy and daddy (we love it too!) You love playing with your elephant play mat. You flail your arms and kick your legs whenever the elephant plays music. You love your dummy very much and have started cuddling with your blankets. You've starting sleeping in your own room. You love riding in your stroller and like go bye byes. You love talking to mommy and daddy, your eyes light up whenever you speak to us. We love hearing your little coos.

Little bean, I can't believe you're already four months old! You're growing up way to fast kid, but mommy loves watching you learn and explore the world around you.

Mommy and daddy love you SO much Rebekah and we're so happy you're a part of our lives.

Love Mommy and Daddy

Home Sweet Home!

 Thursday evening I was discharged from the hospital and we brought Rebekah home! Amber stayed the night to help me out since Andrew had to work that night. We still have a lot of settling in to do but I'm glad we're home now. :) Andrew's lovely mother came down on Friday to help us get settled in and adjusted to being parents. It was so nice having her here to help out with things, I really appreciate all that she did/does for our family. :)

 We came home to these gorgeous flowers from daddy and these lovely flowers from nanny and grandad. :)

I had my first week alone with Rebekah at night while Andrew was working and I think I'm getting the hang of things. She's such a calm and happy baby, which makes learning how to become a mother so much easier. I can't believe how quickly the time has gone since we've brought Rebekah home! It's crazy to think  she'll be two weeks old on Tuesday!

Here come the holidays

Halloween has just finished and I felt so bad because I worked and when I got off we had two littles stop by asking for candy. I was so sad because I had no candy to offer. I felt horrible.
I'm getting excited for Thanksgiving, Ands and I just bought a ham today.:) We're having friends come over, I'm sure it'll be great. We also got our Christmas tree. I'm super excited to celebrate the Saviour's birth. I'm ready for snow, hot chocolate and lots of Christmas music. It truly is the most wonderful time of the year.

Last night Andrew and I went to see the Madison high school put on Beauty and the Beast. It was amazing. I thought the kids did a fantastic job. Andrew even admitted that Clogsworth and Lumiere did a good job with their British and French accents. Belle's yellow dress was gorgeous, I would have loved to have it...I actually am quite sad we don't dress up like in fancy dresses like they used too. BUT the school is putting on a Jane Auayen Yule ball and I'm convinced we're going. :)
