Christmas Memories

Friday, December 28, 2007

We are back in the ATL, and it is a little bittersweet. I was glad to get back so we could get Rebecca back on a schedule, but I am sad that Christmas is over. We had so much fun in Mississippi. It is not often that my whole family is together. Rebecca loved being around her cousins, John, Carrie, and Mae. They were so good with her. Rebecca might not remember her first Christmas, but I will remember it as being a wonderful time. I have attached a lot of pictures from our trip. Hope you enjoy!

It seems like all of my friends have had a baby this year or are about to have a baby. Rebecca was able to meet a lot of her new friends while we were in Mississippi. This is Meg and William
Harris. William was born in early October.

This is Presley holding Keagan (River's 4 year old), me holding Will (Elizabeth's son born in August), Elizabeth holding Rebecca, and Rivers holding her daughter Avery (born in March). We missed seeing Presley's 2 girls. They were napping.

Over the river

Sunday, December 16, 2007

...and through the woods, to Nannie's house went! It was more like through security, and up in the air. We made it to Mississippi for the holidays. Rebecca was an absolute angel on the plane. She got a little fussy when we took off, but she soon fell asleep. She slept the whole way to Memphis. Then she slept the whole way from Memphis to Cleveland. She is just the best baby.

She is getting over a cold. She woke up Saturday morning with a cough and icky in her nose. I have been a nervous wreck with her being sick, but she has been great. She just wants to cuddle and sleep more. I do not mind either of those. I think we will survive her first illness.

John will join us in Mississippi this coming weekend. All my sisters will be here, too. It is going to be a great Christmas. Check back after the holidays to hear and see about it.

Until then, Merry Christmas! Hope Santa is good to you all!

Simply the Best

Wednesday, December 12, 2007


It is hard to believe that Rebecca is 3 months old now. Sometimes I think that time has flown by; other times it seems to have gone by so slow. Whatever the case may be, it has been the best 3 months of my life.

Don't get me wrong...I have had my moments, even days, when I did not think I was going to make it through, but then I look at my Angel. She is such a miracle. How could any mother not love her baby? It is beyond me. I fall more in love with Rebecca every day.

Anyone who knows me well, knows that I love my sleep. I am not the happiest person in the morning. I might go as far to say that I am pretty grumpy when I wake up. Rebecca on the other hand is a delight in the morning. In fact, waking up to get her out of bed is now my favorite part of the day. You can see why for yourself.

Rebecca has been working on a lot of new tricks these past few weeks. She is trying to grab at things, she sometimes rolls from her back to her front, and she can sit in the Bumbo for a minute or two at a time. She carries on conversations with herself.

My favorite of her new tricks is how she now smiles back at me when I smile at her. She is simply the best!

T'was the Night Before Christmas?

Friday, December 7, 2007

Rebecca was so excited last night, she could not sleep. She woke up at 2:00 and talked to herself until 3:30 when she decided she was hungry. She finally went back to sleep, only to wake up 3 hours later to eat again. This is very unlike our little girl. She usually sleeps until 5:00, eats, and goes back to sleep until 8:30. (I know I am very lucky.) She must have know we were going to see the big man today. That's right, Rebecca met Santa Claus for the very first time. Rebecca loves Santa. She has a Santa night light in her bathroom. Every time we go in there and he is lit up, she stares at him and laughs. So she was super excited to meet the real Santa in person.
If Rebecca was this excited about going to meet Santa, I can only imagine how much sleep we are going to get the night before Christmas when Santa comes to visit her. After all, she has been a very good girl this year!
