All Growed Up

Mother's Day at the river


My favorite part of being Rebecca's mommy right now is watching all the new stuff she is learning to do. I love seeing her try to do something for the first time. She does not give up easy. I admire the determination she has to do what she wants. It seems that she has mastered so many new tricks over the past month. She is crawling, able to sit on her own, pulling up, saying mama and dada, and yesterday, she started feeding herself.

I put a few Puffs on her highchair tray. She grabbed one with her right hand and one with her left. She tried to grab the third with her mouth. She looked like a little kitten trying to eat. If was quite cute. After some work, she finally figured out how to pick the Puff up correctly and put it in her mouth. She also finally figured out how to properly drink out of a sippy cup. We have been working on that for 4 months.

Here are some of my favorite pics of her from the past few weeks.
