2 Month Pics of the Little Lady

So my sister-in-law Christa took some pictures of Rebecca when we were in Idaho visiting at the end of September.  And she did a FABULOUS job!  Here are a few of our favs...  P.S. If you want to see them bigger, you should be able to click on the picture.

If you wanna see more of them, click on the link and it will take you to my sister-in-laws blog - Baby Rebecca

I also thought I would post this picture of all the nieces and nephews together that was taken during the same trip.

Bath time!

We recently took the little hammock out of the bath tub so Rebecca is able to move around a little more.  The first time she didn't really care, but the second time she had a blast!  She started doing this weird shimmy thing and it was so cute!  So naturally, I took a video.  :)  Hope you enjoy her cuteness as much as we do!

Halloween

Just a few pictures from our Halloween.  We decided to go with a fruity feel...literally!  :)

911!  I'd like to report a strobbery!  :)  Love this little cutie!

3 Months

Rebecca is officially 3 months old today! 

I can't believe it has been 3 months since this little lady joined us.  She is getting so active and noisy.  We can definitely tell that she recognizes us now.  When I come to get her up from naps she starts to kick, smile, and coo.  Seriously...cutest thing EVER!   She eats and sleeps like a champ.  I love getting 8 or more hours of sleep at night.  Rebecca has started to do this kind of giggle thing that just melts my heart.  I love getting to stare into her big beautiful eyes and imagine what she is going to be like as she grows up.  She's weighing about 15.5 lbs now and about 25 in.  She has been in 3-6 or 6 month clothes and if she gets much longer we are going to have to bump up another size.  Her torso is where a lot of her length is so onsies get tighter before her pants do.  However...she's got chubby legs (at least 3 rolls between her waist and knee).  And her sleep and plays are starting to get a little snug around her legs.  Hopefully we can get a little more use out of her 3-6 month clothes though.  We feel to blessed to have such a wonderful baby.  Did I mention she's the cutest ever?  :)  She's gotten better at Skype/Facetime sessions.  She doesn't just stare at the screen the whole time anymore but will kick and coo a little bit.  So grateful for the devices we have today to keep in touch with families and friends.  Here are a few pictures taken recently.  Hope you enjoy her cuteness as much as we do! 

 

Rebecca is a Boise State Fan.  Thanks to Grandma and Grandpa Jemmett for the cute outfit!

Family Dates

Now that time together as a family is harder to come by, we have been taking advantage of Saturdays and days that Benn has off school.  We had bought these Boston City Passes that got us into 60 different attractions around Boston for a 24-hour period.  So we decided to go to the Aquarium and Science Museum.  We had a wonderful time and Rebecca was a total champ being dragged around all day and taking naps in her stroller.

We loved the penguins!  They were super cute!

 Rebecca loved getting carried by Daddy - O

 She was bracing herself for the wild ride!  :)

Poor little girl was exhausted after our fun day!

We also spent a Saturday with some friends at a Farm.  They had so many fun activities!  We went through a corn maze and Benn raced ducks with a friend.  We walked through a pumpkin patch and found a spectacular pumpkin for Benn to carve.  We got to watch a pig race and take some fun pictures on an old tractor (which I especially loved!).  They also had a fantastic fresh produce area so I had to get some sweet corn and tomatoes.  The corn was so good I regretted not getting more!  And the tomatoes were so juicy I was in heaven!  It's so fun to do things together as a family and we are so excited to continue having adventures as Rebecca grows up. 

 Some friends - we all had our babies within 7 weeks of each other

 DUCK RACES!

 Benn the Farmer, a particular fav of mine...:)

 Rebecca's first tractor picture.  Too bad I didn't have her in her John Deere clothes!

 One of Rebecca's classic faces.  We think maybe it's just too hard to smile sometimes because there is just too much cheek that has to move for a smile.  

 The pumpkin...pics to follow of the carving product

 Look at those two cuties!  Love them!

My wonderful family :)

Grandparents

So Benn's Grandma and Grandpa Cole came to Boston to go on a cruise so we were lucky enough to get to spend a couple days with them.  It's so wonderful to have people take some time to visit us.  We loved getting to get to know Benn's grandparents better.  They are wonderful people.  So here is a picture of them with their great-granddaughter!

Mommy/Baby Dates!

So there is a group of ladies in my ward and around Boston that get together once or twice a week for play dates.  Rebecca and I have started going the past couple of weeks.  It's been so fun to get to spend time with other adults during the day!  We have gone to a sculpture park, a preserve, and a cemetery.  So here are some pictures from those fun outings (some are just the scenery because it's been so beautiful this fall with the changing leaves).
