A Package & Another First

Ella received a package today that made me realize how much we love and miss our friends in Walnut Creek. She opened this Halloween goody bag from her friend Anna and I could have sworn her smile couldn't get any bigger. Thanks for including us. I was so impressed with how well Sarah and Anna remembered the things Ella really loves.

Stephen was even more impressed with Anna's writing abilities!!


In other Reber news, Kayla has finally started pulling herself up. I caught her in her crib yesterday, standing. Of course, with most good things, there is one bad side effect. Kayla can't get back down; I presume she is too chicken to just let go. So, if she ever gets herself up, I HAVE to get her down. That's why in this picture, Kayla is very happy to see me, but you can still see remnants of the many tears on her face.

Yay you got the package! I had written a note explaining the package and Anna really insisted that she needed to write her own letter to Ella. So cute.

And is that a new crib? I LOVE the bedding! Did you make it? I can't even imagine the cuteness of your new house. And you can tell that Kayla was so sad! But her smile at seeing you is so sweet! What a big girl! :)

I love how they look when they start to pull up in the crib, they always look so cute standing there, but then they are always so scared to sit down - why is that?!

How fun to get a Halloween package. That's a thoughtful friend.

Kayla is soooo sweet. I love that you captured those little tears. Christina isn't quite to pulling up on her own, but she's finally learning to bend a bit and fall more gently. Cute girls!
