Love brings kisses

When we put Rebekah to bed, one of the rituals we practice is singing to her. Many times she'll request a certain song to be sung. Two songs that she always requests from Daddy are "Families can be together forever" and "Love one another". A few night ago, while Scott was singing Rebekah "Love one another", Rebekah decided to grab Daddy by the cheeks and give him a kiss on the lips every time Daddy sung the word "love". It was a sweet moment. She loves her Daddy, for sure.

Here is a video of Rebekah reading from a few months back. Also, a video of Andrew smiling. He smiles and laughs a lot, especially when watching Rebekah, but whenever the camera is on, he turns the laughing off...tricky little boy.

Andrew hiding in the closet

Actually, Andrew isn't hiding in the closet...he's sleeping in the closet!! About 2 weeks ago, Scott was at his wits end. He had been bouncing Andrew all day and was in a lot of pain. At about 7:30pm, he decided to just put Andrew down in his crib because he couldn't bounce him anymore. An amazing thing happened...he slept for 5 hours! Since that night, Andrew has made tremendous progress with his sleeping. We've been able to put him down between 7-8:30 and he has only been getting up once at night! Two nights ago, Andrew decided that getting up with Daddy once a night was less valuable than his sleep, so he's decided to sleep through the night until 6:30am! We understand it's just 2 nights in a row, but we're extremely excited and take what we can get for sure! This Sunday morning, Scott decided to push the envelope and put him down for what we guessed was his "morning nap time". He cried for 8 min then feel asleep! He is making fantastic strides in his sleeping habits and we're so appreciative of all the prayers that have come our way. We feel very blessed and fortunate right now! Thank you!
