A Pocket Full of Rachel

This is a little song Lauren made up, it is actually just Ring Around the Rosie.
  Ring around the Rachel
  A pocket full of Rachel
  Ashes Ashes we all fall down

They think it is hilarious and will sing it over and over and over.
 Two years ago today our little Rachel was born.
Some things about Rachel:
  • She loves repeating what people say, especially Lauren.  Her favorite phrase currently is "What you guys talking bout?" Whenever someone is talking she asks that. She has no idea what it means, but she will just keep asking over and over.
  • She is more fearless and mischievous than Lauren and has a much more zany personality. 
  • Loves to do things to make us laugh.
  • Still sparse in the hair department but we did mange some very tiny pig tails today.
  • She is getting really good at picking up little songs and loves to sing them all the time.  She has been singing "Happy Birthday" to herself all day.
We love our Rachel, she makes us so happy. :)

These are my favorite pictures with the girls and their Daddy
She had that same silly, mischievousness look in her eyes at 2 months 




The frustrated face
One year down!



One of her favorite songs is Twinkle Little Star.  She really
can sing the whole thing by herself (along with several other little songs)
 but I have yet to catch it on camera.

Birthday Gift from us
It was a big hit, I barely got them out of it all day
When I asked Rachel what kind of cake she wanted she said
a froggie cake.  I asked her several times to make sure since
I didn't know she was that into froggies but that is what she
said every time.  Here is my attempt :)

Happy Birthday to our sweet Rachel!!
