I hope everyone had a wonderful Independence Day!!!! Ours was fabulous. Becca was so good all day, took a long nap, and then once Meghan got off work we got ready and drove to pick up friends and head to the river. We parked in an alright location and walked down to the river front. We picked an AWESOME spot to sit (except for the darn ants!!!) and we listened to the music and talked. Then Larry joined us, and Logan and her brothers, and also Amy and Kris. Once it got dark and the fireworks started, Becca clung to me, but before that, she was all about anyone but me. She made a new friend with the little boy who was next to us who was so so so cute!!! Becca LOVED the fireworks!!!!! I can't wait for next year when she ooohs and aaahhhs. She clapped at most of them before the big ones started and she was clinging to me but she was still super interested. We tried to cover her ears but her response to that seemed to be "get off me it's part of the experience woman!!!"
On another note, Becca has learned to say "NO!!" not only that but it's "NO NO NO NO NO NO NO!!!" while wildly shaking her head. It's actually funny, but of course I had to NOT laugh so that she doesn't continue to do it. Kind of like ignoring her temper tantrums. This mom thing is getting easier, and yet I know it's about to get a WHOLE LOT TOUGHER too. Today I filled out my petition for revisal of our court stuff so that I can move (as if Brett's going to say "no Patty, do not move only 8 minutes away with our daughter. How dare you!") And tomorrow, more job applications (even though by next week I should be hearing from the place I am waiting for).
I would post pictures, but my computer is being as mean to me as my homosexual exboyfriend douchebag. :)
Until next time...
