Before I tell you about the Toyland that was once our home, I want to make a list of a few things that I want to remember about Rebecca and this stage in her development.
1. She loves to put her mouth/tongue on my nose. I try to discourage this behavior, but she can be very persistent.
2. Sometimes out of nowhere she calls out "Da, Da, DA, DA!" Sometimes this is accompanied by her searching the house for her Daddy. She normally refers to John as Daddy, so I am not sure where "Da" comes from.
3. She tries to push back her bed time by not drinking her milk. She will bite on the edge of the milk cup, pretending to be drinking. As soon as I catch on and say, "okay, bedtime" she will say, "milk, milk, milk". But you give her the milk back, and she continues to pretend to drink it. The only way to get her to drink her milk is too put her in her bed and walk out of the room for a minute or two. As soon as I go back in, she slurps the milk down.
4. When she does drink her milk at night and in the morning, she likes to sit in my lap and rub my face. She holds the sippy cup with one hand and rubs my check with the other.

I thought that once we took down the Christmas tree and put away the decorations, our house would seem a little less cluttered. I was wrong. There are toys everywhere. They have taken over the house.
But Rebecca is having so much fun playing with all her Christmas loot.
