12 Weeks Old

Rachel had one milestone this week: Sitting up in her Bumbo seat by herself. I've been wanting to try it for a while, and I finally did this week. She did ok. She liked it for a few minutes, but I think she got tired quickly becuase she's still probably not quite ready to sit unaided for very long.

Here she is on her first try in the Bumbo seat...



Here are some pics in a cute outfit that my mom bought Rachel for Easter. It's just now fitting so she wore it on Father's Day. The hat is the cutest!

She's really close to rolling over from her back to her stomach...as you can see in this picture. She's can roll over from her stomach to her back easily and has been doing that for several weeks now, but I think we're close to another milestone: rolling over both ways!

Here's Alison holding Rachel last Monday night. Alison comes over to watch the Bachelorette every Monday night and to help with Rachel. We cook her dinner...so it's probably a pretty good trade off:o)

Here's a random picture of Rachel with her Octopus. It is one of her favorite toys!
