January 2008

Here we go for January 2008...we're getting there...slowly but surely :)

Rachel loves to cuddle with her Daddy. This is one of my favourite pictures.

Uncle David & Aunt Andrea came by the first weekend in January to give Rachel her Christmas gifts since we didn't see them over the holidays (Mommy's Doctor said no travelling).

Mmmmmm...chocolate cookie! Yummy, yummy!

One of my favourite outfits. Ron bought this dress & sweater for Rachel when he was in Kent, Ohio in December. It's too cute!

Lil' Sprout apparently loves Kraft Dinner. Rachel quite enjoyed feeding her - I'm glad we got a picture of it.

Cuddle time with Daddy again. I love the placement of her arm.

Uncle Mark, Aunt Sally & Luke came to London the first weekend of January as well to give Rachel her Christmas present. She & Luke had a blast playing with it...Uncle Mark, too!

Luke & Rachel get along great to say that they don't see each other too often. They moved on from the easel to Rachel's airplane toy. Rachel is infatuated with Luke's hair - I don't know why - maybe the colour??? She always pats his head when they are together.

Luke & Rachel playing the piano.

Give the kid a wet washcloth and she's entertained for HOURS!!!! ha ha It was cute to see her checking herself out in the reflection of the patio door.

Giving Daddy a hug. It's great now - she gives hugs anytime we ask her. They're the best!

So adorable! What more can I say????

Look at me play on my airplane toy! She loves to scoot around on it now.

Meeting Natalie, "Lil' Sprout". Yes, Rachel is wearing her 'big sister' t-shirt. Natalie is only a few hours old in this picture (hence the purple face - poor little thing - she came into this world too quickly so her face was really bruised)

Going home from the hospital. Rachel wanted to hold Natalie again.

At home with Natalie - she couldn't wait to hold her again. Rachel is going to be an amazing big sister!

Rachel & Luke playing once again.

Daddy & Rachel had fun playing outside in the snow, especially when Daddy took her for a ride in the sleigh.

Mmmmmmmmmmm....these cookies are sooooo good!!!!

Future Accountant, like her Mommy. She loves playing with this calculator.

Smelling the flowers with Daddy.

Colouring in her new My Little Pony colouring book. She would rather take the Crayons out of the box and put them back in.

This is quite a common pose of Rachel's now that Natalie is around. She likes to just watch her - and sometimes she offers her food! ha ha

Our polka dot girls. Too cute! Natalie is only a couple of weeks old in this picture.

Rachel checking Natalie out after Natalie bopped her one! ha ha

Rachel trying to teach Natalie how to wave. It was quite comical.

And that was our month of January...
