Almost 6 Months Old

Rachel turns 6 months old this Friday! I can't believe it!!! This has been an awesome week with lots of things going on and next week is going to be even better! We're heading to St. Louis on Thursday, so stay tuned for pics from the trip when we get back!

Our main event this week was Laura's 1st birthday party. We had so much fun and Christy went all out with the lady bug theme. Everything was so cute!!!

Rachel has a new facination with...just about everything...including the TV remote. She's putting EVERYTHING into her mouth lately! Maybe it's because she now has her first tooth pushing through!!! We're so excited, but sad becuase our baby is already growing up!




This sitting up is the stuff!!


She loves that her boppy pillow catches her when she falls backwards from sitting up:o)


In her door jumper...



Her first time to sit in the shopping cart!...at Target of course!



She got a little pooped out by the time we finished shopping...



Playing at Nana's house over the weekend...she just loves the frog bouncer!
