On the Road Again

Rebekah had quite a weekend. She first stopped by the doctor's office on Friday for her nine month check-up. Mom and Dad were quite pleased to find out that she is doing great and Rebekah was happy to discover that she would not be getting shots at this visit.

Here are her latest stats:

* Weight = 18 lbs. 13 oz. (55th percentile), an increase of 11 lbs. 13 oz. since birth

* Height = 29 in. (90th percentile), an increase of 9 3/4 in. since birth

* Head Circumference = 17 1/2 in. (55th percentile), an increase of 4 1/8 in. since birth

After her check-up, Rebekah immediately hopped in the car and cruised down to Norfolk to see Andrew.

Andrew took Rebekah, or - as he likes to call her - "Backpack," out to eat when she got there. They had a lot of catching up to do.

On Saturday, Rebekah visited the Virginia Zoo, which is just down the street from Andrew. Rebekah was very excited for her first trip to the zoo.

Andrew has been there many times so he played it cool....

...and gave Backpack his personal, guided tour.

Rebekah liked all of the animals...

although some of the bigger ones were quite shocking.

Later in the afternoon, Morris joined the crew.

Being the youngest, Rebekah generally stayed out of the way and studied the boys.

It is very surprising that there is actually a picture with all three of them in it at the same time.

Rebekah/Backpack is already counting down the days until her next trip!
