At the Church Fete

Fun was had by all at our annual Church fete at the begininig of the month. Mommy had a medical stand where blood pressures and blood sugars were done. Mommy was very busy and so was Rachel. Daddy wasn't very well that day, so it was Mom on her own with Rachel. She really enjoyed herself, loved the music that was being played. But the best part for her was a display of a bath of water with bubbles in it. She kept dragging Mommy to the display saying "Bobbles", the lady there was so sweet and let Rachel put her feet in the water, you can just imagine what it was like to get her out afterwards!

Bath fun with Daddy

Rachel and Dad had great fun the other day, while Bradley was having his bath before going on Night Duty, lots of bubbles were made and he had a very full bath. Rachel enjoyed playing with the bubbles, so Daddy thought it would be a great idea to put them on her head. Soon she did the same. Fun was had by all.

Spending sometime at Home

We spent sometime at Home the other day, just chilling as you can tell by the picture of Mommy and Rachel, Mommy didn't even try and brush her hair. As for the picture of Rachel with the camera bag, well, you can see that she has had enough of mommy taking snap shots all the time. Rachel still has an opsection with Keys and locks, even down to climbing onto things so she can reach the locks. At least she hasn't managed to find the right key for the right lock as yet, even though she doesn't us our keys she has her own set of keys that don't work any were, we hope!

My Latest Haircut

Rachel had her hair cut, again, She was so good sitting on Mommy's lap with a lovely colourful hair cloth over her. She sat perfectly still, on her best behaviour. They layer cut it, but Daddy said that it should have been shorter and Mommy agrees now, as it has alreadly been 2 weeks since the cut and it is getting long again. Rachel loves the cut, not having hair in her eyes all the time.

I have Granny's duster

Rachel found Granny's duster the one day, and she thought that she was in heaven. She started dusting everything she could reach and the things she couldn't she would climb onto a little step that Granny gave her and keep on going. She loved the "brring" sound that the duster makes. Now I don't know where she gets this from it must be Daddy's side of the family, because I don't clean that well to say the least.

Barney Cup cake time!

We made cupcakes, or should I say I made cupcakes for Rachel, This was great fun for both of us, including Evangeline and Evelyn. It all started with me adding the liquid ingredients to the provided white powder from the box, the mixture turned Green, yes I said Green, just like the spots on the Named Dinosaur. I first thought maybe it had expired but no, so brave me I try ed the mixture and it tasted fine, just very Green. So we continued, next it was the icing, and when I say purple icing I mean PURPLE ICING, now not like the mixture the icing tasted Purple, if you can just imagine. Well all was done now, Rachel enjoyed putting the sprinkles of little stars and spots on the cup cakes (yes those too tasted YUCK). Now you ask who ate these colourful cakes. The only ones that would enjoy them, the neighbours kids and Rachel, I think that they should put a warning on the box to say for kid consumption only!

Cookies!

Uncle Brendon came to visit and Rachel got into his Stroop Waffels with avengence. Mommy can't even have them visable without Rachel crying for one. They are so yummy, she calls them Cookies.

I'm leaving Mom. Bye!

This is one of the many things that Rachel loves to do. She will either take her back pack that Granny gave her or her school bag, and put it on and say "Bye.. Bye" and will continue saying "Bye" till you respond and wave "Bye" back. Then she will walk away, only about 1 metre and then that game is done. This time she was still in her babygrow from the night before as well as she decided to take Tigger with her inside her babygrow.

Getting Ready for the Photo

The other day, Mommy and Daddy were getting Rachel ready to have her second class photo from being taken. Her 1st one wasn't the best, to be truthful, it was very sad. So we were given a second chance to have a photo taken at the studio and this time mommy was there to put a smile on Rachel's dial. We hadn't had her hair cut as yet so clips were used, Mommy was surprised that they stayed in so long.

Rachel and Noodles

Rachel loves to eat 2minute noodles, but I've learned to break them up before cooking them because I've found that this long noodles can get quite messy and the noodles get cold before they get eaten. Her favourite meal at the moment is viennas and noodles.
