Family Update

I have officially driven on the LIE (Long Island Expressway). Of course, it had to come because of a medical order not to drive for Don (don't worry, he's all good now), but I did it!  Ironically, this picture was taken by Don right before a big truck decided it wanted to be right where I was and started coming over into my lane.  As nerve wracking as it was for me, you can imagine how it was for Don in the passenger seat. 

Speaking of my dearest Don, we got Rebekah a new toy.
It holds Don's attention very well....  

In fact, where is Rebekah?

Well, where ever she is, she's probably teething on something.

Her crib for example:

She sure is growing.  She use to fit under this piano bench.  

(Don't worry, I put the camera down before she got really frustrated.)

She is good at exploring too.  In and out of the coffee table - all in a hard day's play.

She loves to read.  She's reaching for my British History section.  That's my girl....

And she is working on her block stacking. 

(Yeah, I know, I'm definitely a new mom when I take a picture of her organizing her blocks, 

but it was the first time she placed them all in a nice row!)  

She loves a good post lunch / pre-evening bottle play time outside. 

And to close, Rebekah will leave you with a song:

"And I - ee - I - ee - I will Always Love You...!"
