Long overdue for a Rachel update. I like this picture of her because we get that face so much. She does give out sweet smiles and laughs a lot too, but when she is just chillin' or exploring, this is the face we most often get!
Rachel is already 10 months. She is still big and growing, but I think it is starting to taper off a little. She is a great eater and tries about everything we give her. She does love blueberries, yogurt, baby cereal, cheerios, pears, and peas and carrots. She loves when she gets to feed herself.
She is starting to be mobile. She still doesn't crawl, in fact she can barely roll from stomach to back, but she sits well, and scoots on her bum to get around. I really need to get the baby gates out! She loves being able to explore and get into everything.
Rachel needs some major improvement in the sleep department. She usually has two naps during the day, and is good with them, but she still regularly wakes up at night, and all over the place with regards to what time. I don't want to jinx it, but the last few nights she has shown improvement, and I really hope she keeps that up!
Rachel loves to babble, and loves to clap her hands. She has a great laugh, and loves when you give her lots of attention. She loves her big sister Macy, who is great at giving her attention and making her laugh. However, Rachel is now getting more possessive over her toys, and Macy is having to learn to share with her sister.
We love having Rachel in our family. I can already tell she is going to have a strong personality and I can't wait to see more of it!

She looks like a pit bull with the lines separating the cheeks and the mouth.
I think the best stage is when they are sitting up, but not crawling!
Can't wait to see how much she has changed since summer.
