Rachel loves talking about all the people in her life. We have name signs for them and she shows here that she understands my signs without me adding the spoken English. Sometimes she even tries to get away with calling her Daddy "Steve"...she doesn't get far with that one! :)

23 months old and having fun!









Rachel is now in a "big girl bed". She helped us decorate her room and pick out the new sheets for her new twin bed. She loves her new room and is sleeping like a little princess! She still enjoys dress up and keeps herself busy trying on different hats, necklaces, a variety of accessories and just recently started wearing the pretty purple "princess" shoes. Rachel's most recent role playing includes pretending she is someone else, giving her babies new names and in this last photo she "has a baby in her tummy and she is sick". She also informed me that I was the nurse. She is such an imagination and we love listening to her explain her thought process! Summer time is allowing us to get outside and play. Rachel enjoys our backyard, her pool and new sand/water table. Of course she has to bring all her babies out to sit at the patio table so they can "watch" her play.
