Bekah June

I just found this post that I think never got published last year. Sorry if it's a repeat.

She's so gentle and sweet with her toys.

Chelsey wouldn't hold still

Ready to go out in the snow! (don't worry, we put clothes on Bekah before going out)

She was throwing a fit so I took this picture to show her what she looked like. It didn't end the fit...

Bekah was somewhat intimidated by Garrett's monkey costume, but she was so intrigued by it that she put up with it pretty well.

Halloween night we had a scientist, a nerd, a mountain biker, a pumpkin and a scientist who turned himself into a monkey. Needless to say, it was a wild party!

Bekah is so much fun! Every day Garrett and I just laugh and laugh. We can't get enough of her. She talks so much and says the funniest things. Tonight I was putting her to bed and she suddenly started yelling, "Utah State Aggies!" She then clapped and cheered and did it all again and again! She loves the song "Once there was a Snowman" so much and does the actions and sings with us. She's also very good at singing "Twinkle Twinkle" and joins in the songs during Sacrament Meeting. It snowed yesterday so we got all bundled up to go outside and as we were heading out the door, talking about snow the whole time, she suddenly ran back to the living room to grab her stuffed snowman so he could enjoy the snow, too! Her favorite stuffed animal is her bear but she has times that she thinks a different one would be more appropriate (like a snowman in the snow). She understands happy, sad, silly, and scary and labels everyone and everything accordingly. When we're eating a snack i have to give a bite to a different toy with each mouthful she takes. I've had the privilege of feeding her bear, elephant, airplane, ball, sippy-cup, school bus, and many others. Each bite that an inanimate object takes results in her nodding her head and saying, "Mmmmmm." Apparently they love my cooking.

February

We survived February with only minor depression and minor frostbite. Actually February was better than January. January was just COLD. February at least had a little sun.

Snowman in front of our house. It was fun to watch him slowly melt over the next 6 weeks. Several times a week Bekah would look out the window and say, "Hi Snowman, how are you?" 

Wearing my glasses and loving it!!

Last February. How has she changed this much???

I wore this dress when I was 2!

She loves to climb in weird spaces.

She put on Garrett's jacket, hat, and shoes and said "I go school now."
