A few firsts this week!

This week was a week of a few firsts. On Thursday afternoon, Rachel decided it was time for her to flip over from her belly to her back at the end of her nap! Mom was very excited and couldn't wait to tell as many people as possible. Then, during the middle of the night, Rachel continued to flip over, and Mom wasn't so excited anymore! Pictured below is Rachel's first flip on her own with a bit of a smirk for the camera. That's our girl.

Another first this week was Rachel's first St. Nick stocking. Even though she is not really all that aware of what was going on, she certainly had a smile for the camera as she attempted to figure out what she was looking at.

The last picture isn't a first, but it is Rachel's reaction to the MU game on Saturday afternoon. MU played very poorly as you can tell from her gesture! The next few weeks are busy with Christmas decorating, wrapping, and cooking baking before we are on the road visiting family. Happy Advent season to everyone!

    So is Rachel (aka Little Miss Elf in training)continuing to "flip" and awaken you, Martha? Of course she's proud of her new trick. I love the picture of her in her crib smiling at you! What a cutie!

    It's COLD (frigid) up here but the stove is keeping us warm thankfully. More gifts are being wrapped and put under the tree. I had fun watching the storm and ironing in the new area upstairs yesterday since school was closed. We also had a lot of shoveling to do....... even with the truck coming through for the major paths. We're looking forward to seeing all three of you on the 24th.

    Love,
    Mom
