Rebekah WillaMay got her third tooth this month.  Yay for teeth!  Can't wait until they all come through so we can be done.  I'm sure she shares that wish.  

This month was a big moving month for little Reka WillaMay.  Rolling all over the place!  She learned how to get to a sitting position from a laying position.  She is almost crawling - goes backwards in kind of a circular motion.  

She still loves the neighbors dog - hope one day to get a picture of them together.  

She does not like riding lawn mowers.  Weeks ago we were walking by them and she broke out in the saddest cry you ever heard.  Weeks later I thought it would be okay when we passed them on another walk, but no.  This time she cried, but she also told me all about it.  There were consonants and vowels - baby babble of course, but she was definitely trying to communicate to me her feelings.

She laughs at the strangest things, but her little laugh touches your heart and brings tears to your eyes.  Okay, maybe that's just me, but it is heart warming to hear.

She says "da-da" very well.  It may be too soon for this, but I swear when she looks at Don and says "da" she knows what it is she is saying.  

She loves to be sung to, and even trying to sing along with me.  One day I was changing her clothes and singing.  I got to a note that I hold out.  She usually smiles.  This time she actually joined in.  Made me smile big.  

I do love my little girl.  Can't wait for each day with her.
