i heard a shot

HAPPY BIRTHDAY Aunt Mamber!! Yes, one year ago today, I think Aunt Mamber had her fingers crossed that Rachel might be born a bit ahead of schedule and land right on her birthday. But hey, it's fun sharing the same birth month too!

Okay, so the plan backfired, just like the Healthy Sleep Habits book said it would. Rachel went to sleep last night around 7:45pm, 1 hour 45 minutes later than the previous night. She woke up this morning at 5:00am. Thankfully, she did nurse and go back to sleep, but only until 6:15am. As a result of significantly less sleep, I was one cranky mommy with one cranky baby all day. Thanks to the rain, PopPop didn't get to do much painting on our house, so he surprised me by doing some much-needed weeding and planting some pretty flowers around our mailbox. To further help my mental state, he came inside and played with Rachel this afternoon while I worked on the hat to match her ladybug dress. PopPop took all of us out for Aunt Mamber's birthday, and Rachel was very well-behaved! She loved sitting in the high chair, and she tried (and liked!) cottage cheese, tomato, and pineapple! She was asleep tonight at 7:20pm. She was biting on her hand all the way home from the restaurant, and she felt a bit warm...maybe she will get those teeth soon.

cute moment

This evening, Rachel wore jeans for the first time. She looked like such a big girl. Aunt Mamber bought this cute outfit for her.

non-toy toy of the day

Rachel concentrated today on her little tennis shoes (again). It was just like yesterday's video, only with her shoes. She placed them in different arrangements, studied the laces, examined the soles, tried to put them on top of each other, tried to put them on her feet.
