Up-To-Date with Rebecca

Hello, ladies and gentlemen!! This is Rebecca, (age 6 months, respectively) reporting for the Bontrager Family Singers and on life in general from my perspective. You will have to excuse them for the lack of blogging recently….they all have been extremely busy and so I decided to take responsibility and do my own little post. My life has been busy too…..of course I am very loved and get much attention from my 11 adoring “parents”. It is so much fun to be the baby! Anyway, my most recent milestone has been getting my first tooth!! Everyone has been so excited for me but it was a painful process and I didn’t enjoy it much. I had some grumpy times but everybody was extra loving to me so it wasn’t too bad. Since I got this new little tooth, they all seem more excited about “it” than they do about me! I know, that doesn’t make any sense to me either, I mean, if there was no me, than there would be no tooth, right? Once the news was out that my toothie had arrived, everybody wanted to see it. That was frustrating because I don’t like having my mouth opened by other people. It doesn’t feel nice and it’s definately not
very sanitary. And besides, why is my toothie so special? I only have one and mommy has a whole mouthful but nobody ever opens up her mouth to look at her toothies! What an unfair world.

Here it is……Allison opened up my mouth so Chelsy could get a picture of it.

Chelsy decided to take a bunch of pictures of me. She says my eyes look “yummy” on this picture. They all say I’m adorable. And they say it in sugary voices so I guess that means it is a complement.

Then Chelsy thought I should try on her hat. It was ever so slightly too big but I will grow into it. Chelsy and Allison laughed and laughed at me when they put it on. I wasn’t sure what to think but I ended up liking it. Most of the time when Chelsy takes pictures of me I try to look really bug-eyed (and I’m really good at that!) but today I decided to look cute.

So anyway…..that’s the news from my little corner of the world. I’ll try to get them to post again soon but if they don’t I’ll try to update you now and then. I really had fun doing this. Maybe I could take it over. 🙂 Please comment and tell me what you think of my new toothie! And my hat!
