Yes, I know I am terrible for not posting. I remember this being easier last time :) So, I come bearing several pictures since none of you actually read what I write anyway!
Rachel is doing well; she's an eating machine. In fact, I think she's working on her third chin. I managed to sneak her onto the scale when Ethan was in for a sick visit yesterday, and she's well over 10lbs! She slept four hours yesterday (9pm-1am) which seemed like a full night sleep for me. She's a good baby but seems to have a bit of colic and is fussy from 5pm-9pm but then crashes so I really can't complain too much. She is holding her head up a little bit and tracking us all with her eyes though she goes cross-eyed pretty often which Ethan thinks is hysterical.
So, my mother chastized me for not having any pictures of Rachel's big brother holding her so I have posted a few. The first one shows just how excited he is to have a baby sister. He is a very big help to me (mostly, "go and get" types of errands but he LOVES to hold her too).
I like the look on her face in this one...
She has dimples! Which of course only come out when she "smiles" which she only does in her sleep (I guess we're not funny enough for her yet!)
And, she has her daddy's blue eyes at least for now.
