Eating Mommy's Birthday Cake



We had a cookie cake tonight and Becks loved eating all of the icing off, as you can tell from all the idfferent colors on her face!

Still some "firsts" left to check off




This weekend Rebecca had her first "kid's coffee" It was really hot chocolate, but she didn't know the difference. Also, for the first time she let me put her hair in pig tails without ripping out the hair bows in 20 seconds. They stayed in for 20 minutes, which might not seem like much, but trust me, it is a big deal in our house.

Rebecca's New Fav Hiding Spot



I am on the phone and turn around and see this--ah the joy of having a true 2 year old in the house. Yes she is nakey and yes she likes hiding in her new dog's house:) She will kill me for this in about 15 years I do believe...

First Day of School

Waking up still...
Walking to Chapel with our new friend Naomi and one of Becks's teachers, Ms. Ramona.

Side view with the new back pack on- she didn't want to take it off to get in the car seat.
Back view of Becks and her backpack- I know, she really needs a haircut!

Mommy wanted to cry instead of smile, but we both made it through the day!

Meet the Teacher

What Rebecca ended up wearing was the pink dress (note the hair bow), but what she REALLY wanted to wear was her tutu and pirate hat...took some convincing to get her out of the tutu.
I took today off work to take Rebecca to meet her new teachers.

Swimming with the Kaminsky Clan!


We all had a great time playing with the kids and swimming together.

Visit from Miss Jessie

There were lots of hugs...
and kisses...

Rebecca's little friend





Rebecca is mildly obsessed with Elliot. She saw her twice this weekend, which was a pretty big deal for her. We had dinner with her on Friday and she came over to swim on Sunday. Here are photos of Becks tickling her toes, Elliot tasting her leg, Elliot in Rebecca's loaned pirate hat.

Juliet's Birthday Party




Becks had a great time eating cake and ice cream before noon and playing on the playground!

Little Gym Thursday










Daddy surprised us this week and was able to come to Little Gym, so Mommy took some pictures.

Dinner with the Godfather


Last Tuesday, Steve came into town for a depo and spent the afternoon/evening with us. We hung out, went swimming, and ate. Becks had fun visiting with him and showing him all of her stuff!

Nice little Saturday Morning

Coming down a HUGE slide (see photos below). I nearly had a heart attack the first time she went down, but she was fearless of the heights.
Climbing pretty high all by herself- as tall as daddy.

Taking a break with Daddy.
On the run...



Saturday morning we took a family bike ride to an elementary school a couple of miles away from our house. It has 3 really cool and different playgrounds, so Rebecca got to try all sort of new tricks and she made a couple of new friends. Even though it was already really hot at 8:00 am, we left her bike helmet on, and it was a really good idea. She ended up hitting it alot when climbing on all of the new stuff.
