Randomness from this week

Just a few pictures from this past week.  We've had some really great weather so we've been outside playing at the park and having a good time while it lasts. Rachel is finally getting the chance to spend time outside (the weather hasn't been good since she was born!) and she loves it.  She's such a happy girl and she loves to sit in her stroller and watch Eden play at the park. 

Rachel is our little night owl.  She won't sleep in her crib until some time after 10:30 at night.  She'll sleep fine on the couch but if we try to lay her in the crib she wakes up.  She loves her little softie blankie and when we give it to her she gets so excited.  She bites it and rubs her face in it and then snuggles up with it.  She falls asleep faster if she has her softie to hug.  It's really been a hit.  Thanks Karla!
 

Just another cute Rachel pic.  She 's such a smiley girl but I can't seem to catch those smiles on camera.  As soon as she sees the camera, she stops smiling.  Maybe I've taken too many pictures...

Yesterday afternoon we were the napping house.  Andy had worked the night shift the day before so he was home sleeping.  We'd spent the morning at the park and we were all worn out.  Rachel fell asleep and I decided to take a little nap while Eden was in quiet time.  Eden fell asleep too (a rare and welcome event) and it was so nice and peaceful.  Eden woke up after a while and crawled up next to me on the couch and fell asleep again.  It was so nice to cuddle with her because she is usually so busy and won't hold still long enough for me to cuddle with her.  After a little while she moved to the floor and fell asleep again.  I wanted to take her picture because she looked so sweet but she woke up before I could take it.  She's still a cutie though!
