Little by Little

We have had a pretty fun week here in the Lehmann household. Rebekah has been walking more and more. Last night she stood up from my lap and walked about 7 steps toward Jeff. Of course in my attempt to video the occasion, she wouldn't walk anymore after that. We have a few videos of her walking around the house with her walking toy. We're pretty excited that she's making so much progress.

We also had about 9" of snow on Thursday, which is apparently the largest amount of snowfall recorded in the last 130 years or so in this part of the state. We do realize that this is nothing compared to the 30" or more of snow that has fallen in Pennsylvania where some friends of ours live, but it's a pretty big deal. We actually got a snow day on Friday, so Jeff was able to stay home with us and play. On Thursday, the girls and I went out to play in the morning, and then my dad came over for lunch and played with Rachel in the backyard. The video is of him and Rachel. Then, when Jeff got home we played again and made an even larger snowman. On Friday we went out in the morning while Rebekah was napping, but Rachel didn't care much for the snow. Jeff and I had a great time though. The snow is still there, but melting pretty quick. We are going to have a very soggy yard for several weeks and we are expecting rain at the end of next week.
