Since the last update, the biggest milestone is that Rachel rolled over from her back to her tummy two weeks ago!
She is still very smiley, talks to herself before going to sleep, and has started squealing!
We aren't sure if she is purposely grasping at her toys or if it is just a reflex, but she is on the verge.
She brings so much joy to us. When we go get her in the morning, her face brightens up with a huge smile and she starts kicking her legs really vigorously. Her sweet demeanor can only come from The Lord! God knows Justin and I are not that pleasant ourselves in the morning...
Here are some pics since we returned back to Pasadena:
Her 4 month pic. Thanks aunt Edna for the onesies for each month!
We went to the rose parade, which is up the street from where we live
It was a cool experience to check off our LA bucket list
Rini and Albert were so thoughtful to make time for us during their stay in LA!
We squeezed her into this dress one last time (couldn't button the back)
Having fun playing dress up with an outfit from PoPo and shoes from auntie Sarah
She tolerates sitting in the bumbo. But she loves her Pj's from aunt tina and uncle Daniel
Rachel playing with her friend. Sometimes it gets lively!
Other times it's pretty chill
Daddy and Rachel are inseparable after he gets home from work
Rachel has a lot of school spirit: hook 'Em! Thanks auntie tri, auntie denini, and auntie Julie!
Meanwhile, I am transitioning my responsibilities at work, so Justin has been watching Rachel on the weekend and on some weeknights. Very thankful how that worked out. Justin is such a hands-on dad and such a wonderful father to our little bean.
Rachel is getting baptized this Sunday - pictures to come in the next update!
