A Home Under Siege...






We call her "Baby Godzilla". She's adept at taking down large cities (Lego creations) in a single wave of her arm or swish of her backside. That's right folks, Rachel is on the move. She still whines when Colette leaves the room. But now she can find her. She's crawling and pulling herself up to stand. She was just waiting to achieve all the important milestones in front of us... her forever family. We think she says "Dada" and "dog". She knows baby sign language for "more" and "up". She waves bye bye and hello to everyone, claps her hands, and gives slimy kisses. She a little sponge when it comes to mimicking us. Just a note: Jeff's freaky leg bites are healed and he is now able to resume working on the house (shown here sealing the new tile with Rachel helping). He probably should have milked his injuries a little longer to avoid getting back to reality.
