Rebecca gets a bob!

In the past couple weeks Rebecca hasn't been wanting her usual pig tails and instead has developed a fancy for headbands. I personally don't care how she wante her hair fixed so long as it looks neat, but the stringy hair in a headband was getting on my nerves. ;-) So this morning, with daddy's approval of course, we chopped off her long locks. I love her new shorter 'do' and its going to be much easier for all in the mornings. Daddy saw her this morning (while we were gettting her x-rays to see if she has pneumonia!!!) and he loves it too. Here are the only good pics I could get right now...... even though she's sick, she still doesn't set still long.

Rebecca Rides the Bus

        We've been reading oodles of books with Rebecca lately, but she has a few favorites that we have to read over and over.....daily! One of these is "The Big Green Pocket Book", a story about a girl and her mother who bot have pocketbooks. They ride a bus into town and run errands together and the little girl fills her empty pocketbook with treasures from their day. Yesterday while reading, Rebecca decided that she needed to ride a bus.. now! So of course, daddy hunted up the METS phone number and we headed downtown to catch the 5:15. She loved it! All we really did was ride in a big twenty minute loop, but she took one of my purses (red, not green), her baby, and a bag of grapes for a snack. I don't think she'll forget this story and adventure anytime soon.

Washing her wheels.

This weekend Rebecca's tricycle was in desperate need of a bath. The pollen of the past few weeks had collected until the red paint had a nice layer of yellow dust. She had a blast and the trike is sparkling once more.
