Visitors

We have had a lot of visitors this past week. Last Sunday, Daniel, Stephanie, and Ellen Searcy came up from Griffin, GA to visit. Ellen just turned 2 in July, and she is too cute! She really liked Rebecca until her mom held her. Ellen was also good at talking to Rebecca in Rebecca's kind of talking. Rebecca is very vocal. She makes all kinds of sounds. Sometimes it is just grunts, sometimes it sounds like a whale. Sometimes a horse, but most times she growls. We call this her monster voice. Rebecca was on the floor growling, and Ellen would growl right back at her. It was quite funny.

On Monday, Ellen and Julie Comeaux came to visit Rebecca. Julie was not too interested in Rebecca, but she loved her bouncy seat.

Nannie finally came back to Atlanta. She could not believe how much Rebecca has grown and changed in just two weeks. The reason Nannie came back to Atlanta so soon was to pick up Denise and Mae. They flew into Atlanta from Canada to see Rebecca and to go to Mississippi for a few weeks. Mae turned two in June. She is adorable and is talking up a storm. She was not too sure what to think about Rebecca. She would not get too close to her, so getting a picture was kind of hard. Mae hated when Rebecca cried, and she would say, "No baby Becca!" Hopefully she will warm up to her more when we see them again at Christmas.

Today, John Tugman and Jamie Ratliff came over to watch the Tennessee game. Tennessee lost, but Rebecca looked super cute in her TN pajamas.

Rebecca is becoming more alert each day. We are still having good nights and bad nights, but mostly good. She slept for 6 hours straight one night. She is getting really good at pushing up and lifting her head when she is on her tummy. I will try to get a picture of her doing this, but she is too fast. She is amazing!
