Rebekah Joy - 34 Months


Rebekah is such a little cutie and I really do love this age.  It has its challenges but overall, I love how much she is learning and how sweet she is.

Sleeping:
No real changes in her sleep.  She made the transition to our new home in Alabama just fine.  Naps still start at the same time

Eating:
Rebekah has decided that she doesn't really like quesadillas for snack (just flour tortillas and butter).  She also doesn't really care for tomatoes.  We have been learning how to eat salad and I try to keep the tomatoes to a minimum although she still does have to try them.  She also has begun to enjoy ice in her water.  We have an ice maker on the front of our fridge here in Alabama and she is able to fill up her own cup with ice and water and has been loving it.

Skills:
Rebekah is showing great improvement in her jumping and is always asking "Mama look at this."  She has grown strong enough to climb up the slide on the play set in our backyard.  She has started memorizing and singing more of the songs in the car and the ones we sing in church. Watching her sing and do the motions for O Happy Day is so sweet!  Also, another sweet story is that one day we were out painting the play set and the girls were watching and providing moral support to their parents sweating in the sun; Faith had finished her water and wanted some more and was denied for the time by me but Rebekah chose to give up some of her water for her sister.  It warmed my heart to see her loving like that.

Play:
We were moving most of this month so we were in upheaval but Rebekah adjusted well to each part of the process.  Since we've been in Alabama she has been very into "driving" in their chairs, pushing their shopping cars with their kids in them.  Rebekah loves her stuffed animals and if she could she would carry around 3 or 4 with her everyday.  I usually limit her to one baby and one stuffed animal.
