Rainy Days

Emma has been loving the crazy rainstorms we've been having lately. Apparently the beginning of the Arizona monsoon season is upon us and its awesome! Yesterday morning the rain was really loud as it pounded on the outside of the building, so Emma wanted to get a closer look. I opened the front door and sent her outside to get wet. She loved it! She screamed when I made her come back in to take a bath.

On another note, Becca is growing bigger and cuter everyday. I remember when Emma was a little babe and I always thought at each new stage as she grew that she just couldn't get any cuter... but she kept surprising me. Now, I think the same of Becca... she just keeps getting cuter, especially now that she can smile in her darling way and she is always sucking on her hands. She's also started grabbing at her toes a little, which is super cute too. I've recently changed up Becca's eating and sleeping schedule to accomodate an earlier bedtime. Emma has always gone to bed quite early...even now her bedtime is 7 or 7:30. But it used to be 5:30 or 6 for the longest time. Anyway, Becca has been going to bed so late and being so fussy too. I finally realized that she's just tired and needs to be put to bed before she can even start the evening fussiness. So, now she says goodnight at six o'clock and its so much better! :) Just look how happy my well-rested Becca is....

  1. I've never known of a child that wanted to just stand in the pouring rain, but in hot Arizona, it must be refreshing.
    Becca looks alert and smiling. She really is changing fast.
