I really should be in bed, but I just had to take a minute and share what a great week we have had with Rebekah.  She is talking and signing up a storm.  Yesterday I was watching the weather as I was feeding her dinner and she kept pointing to her hand and saying Ti-Ti!  Ti-Ti!  It finally dawned on me that she was trying to make the sign for "Signing Time"!  When she finished eating, I put in the DVD and told her that Signing Time! was coming on and she said "Yaaaayyyyy!"  It is so fun to see that she really understands us and is responding so much more and asking for things that she wants, not just repeating words and naming objects.

She had a really good physical therapy session yesterday.  We got a reverse walker for her (had to return it today because it was defective) and we were able to get her to stand with it a little.  She actually held the hand grip and stood with the PT just holding one leg at the thigh.  She has never been able to stand before without support at the knees, ankles and hips.  I guess all that time in the stander is paying off!  She was fitted for orthotics (DAFO's) last week and when they come in  they should really help with her standing. 

She is scooting around the house (sitting on her bottom) so much now!  She went back and forth across the living room, through the kitchen and into the dining room today.  I was amazed!  It is so hard to believe that just 3 short weeks ago she had basically no mobility.  After 2 years, I finally have a need to childproof my house for her.  I need to clean my floors too.  I couldn't believe how dirty her pants got after scooting all over the floor.  Yikes!  Now that she is sleeping all night and I am not living on 3 hours of sleep per night, I guess I have no excuse not to mop.  LOL

To top it off and make the week even sweeter, I went to get her from her (non)nap and she was sitting up in her crib!  This is the first time she has gotten herself into sitting all by herself!  I was so, so, so proud of her.  I am kicking myself though for not remembering to go get the camera and take a picture. 

My baby girl is awesome!  Our God is so good to us!  He has answered so many prayers in regards to Rebekah and blessed her tremendously.
