Quality time with the Daddy!




Mommy started her night shift last week, and Daddy got to spend lots of quality time with Rachel. He helped her get dress and ready for bed. Rachel loves to cimb on Daddys shoulders, she had just come out of the bath this time, so she looks abit like a drowned rat. Then it was time to pull out the lap top, (thanks to Granny for the lap top) so that they can play games. Rachel loves the computer, but she knows that she can only play with it if someone is with her. Quality time is great, the only problem that Mommy has is that Daddy still doesn't know how to plat hair, God willing that will come soon, or maybe Rachel will end up teaching Daddy how to do it. She really does miss the Mommy when she has to go to work night shift, but Mommy is very happy to know that she is in good hands with a great Daddy like this.

Time to Iron





Well, Rachel is a really little home maker. She loves to tidy up, sweep and even Iron. Granny got her the ironing board and iron before she was even born, so for all we know she might have already wanted to iron before she came out. She loves to iron all her clothes before packing them away in her chest of draws, she folds them herself and packs them all way so neatly. Mommy is very surprised and wonders where she gets that from, because she knows it's not from her. As long has she is enjoying herself and one less thing for Mommy to do, who should complain.

Braai Time!





Mommy and Daddy find any excuse to braai, it was a great day, friday, sun was shining, that is the best excuse. Rachel was very happy to help Evangeline finish her Baker-Baker cup cake that afternnon. They really enjoyed sitting on the trampoline stuffing their faces. Needless to say that when the meat was done, Mommy had a bit of trouble trying to get Rachel to eat. That is par for the course. Even Peanut go to get some cup cake. Mommy had fun too, just to relax from the studying for a while, and spend some good quality time with the family. The Yon's are so blessed to live where they do, to enjoy the open air, and Braai vleis!
