Happy Birthday Tony!!!!

We hope you have a great day!!!! We miss you a lot. Due to the snow I have not sent out your card yet. It will be coming soon. "Happy Birthday Uncle Tony!!" said Mairisa.

Rebecca has grown

I took Rebecca to the doctor yesterday for a check up and shots. She is now 29" long 23.5 lbs and her head is 46.8cm round. They said she is growing great and doing well in growth. She was not very happy with her shots though. As we were leaving she gave the nurse a mean look. Okay, it was like she was trying to stare her down. She is still a little sore but doing well.

Rebecca turns 1

Happy Birthday Becca!!!

Rebecca turned one today. The past year has gone by so fast. She is now running around and climbing. She has started to copy her sister and learn new words. She loves to dance and "race" with Marisa around the house. Becca has 5 teeth and the 6th is about to poke out some time soon. She loves playing with toys, and spreading them around the house. She gets the "giggles" from time to time. Becca is learning to defend her toys and herself. She enjoyed waking up to all the decorations today. Marisa has been practicing the "Happy Birthday" song all day. We are having some food, cake and celebration tonight. I will post pictures of it later.

Friday!

The girls have begun to fight. It makes the day quite interesting now. Becca loves to pull hair. Marisa just likes to push, kick or whatever else to knock her over. The usual fights daily are over the Aquadoodle mat. Marisa loves to pull it out from under Becca’s feet.

Becca is walking all over the place. Though she is proud of how well she can climb. Her tickling is not always appreciated by Marisa, it is quite humorous to Travis and I. Becca is starting to learn new words every day. She is praying with the family very well also. We are excited for her first birthday on Wednesday. We are going to have cake and ice cream. Yes, my girls love ice cream. For anyone who would like to come during supper time I will make enough for guests. We know everyone has plans on the weekends prior and following her birthday so we are going to have something small on Wednesday night. All are welcome.

Marisa is growing fast. She is working hard on learning to count and ABCs. She got the LeapFrog magnets of the ABCs from Jason and Kristen for Christmas. When we opened it at home she stood in front of the fridge for 10 min trying to sing the ABC song. She did not leave until she got it down. She also can count to ten. She is trying to get to twenty. Everything is teen right now. Marisa is doing so well. She is enjoying all the gifts she did receive for Christmas. She actually is playing with bother her and Becca’s gifts daily.
