Sharon's Farewell

Sharbear gave her farewell talk today at church.  Afterwards we all went to the foyer to get a picture.

One of the photos was funny because of the back ground...

This one is more normal.

The Eclipse

Beverly's First Word

The other day Beverly was mimicking Heidi and said hello back.  Since then we have been practicing with Beverly and she is getting better and better at saying "hello."

Here are some other good attempts...

Beverly and Sharon Singing

Sharon was singing and Beverly was handling percussion...

Part 2

Beverly's great grandma got her a cute outfit that led to Bev's new nickname
"little bear"

 Also Bev tried out being in the hood...

Heidi was trying to get Beverly to say hello and if I had not been right there I never would have believed it, Beverly almost perfectly mimicked back the word hello.  We tried to get her to do it again, but she was not as interested.  She has more important things to do like hold her dolly.

Smile

Beverly now does more than cry, sleep, poop and eat.
