Maybe she can just drool her autograph

Rachel is going to be famous!!! Okay, not famous, but she is going to appear in our local paper next Friday!!!
They are always looking for local pictures to put in their on-line edition and I sent this one:

because it's funny! They liked it and are going to put it in the print edition! YAY!

More Rachelisms
Rachel will be 6 months old on Sunday!!! How is that possible? SERIOUSLY????
She got weighed yesterday during her Synagis vaccine and was 14 pounds 6 ounces! Amazing to me seeing as how she was less than 5 pounds when she came home from the hospital! She is enjoying her new bumbo seat (and early Christmas present) and actually got angry at Ryan this morning for taking her toy! Good for her! She is doing very well (we think) and I can't wait to see what the pediatrician and the neoatalogist have to say on January 3rd when she has her well baby/NICU follow up appointment!
It amazes me that she went from this:

to this in 6 months!!!

She is truly a gift to us!

Ryan, the man
Oh lordy! 2 years old is fun, right? RIGHT?!?!?!? Okay so 75% of the time Ryan is great! A true joy and a little smarty pants. The other 25% you ask? HA! He is a non-sleeping, food throwing, disagreeable little punk! So he's 2 okay?
He cracks us up pretty much every day! Just yesterday he was playing with my MIL's little nativity set and dropped Baby Jesus and broke him! I promtply sent him to time out explaining that he broke Nana's Baby Jesus and he had to say he was sorry which he did. Then this morning he burst into the bathroom while I was getting ready for work and promptly exclaimed "I'm Baby Jesus!!!" Rob's response from the other room was "good. Baby Jesus can make his own breakfast!!" So funny :)
Ryan is LOVING Christmas and digging Santa provided he is bringing an Elmo guitar (he is) and paint (check). Those and cereal are all he has asked SAnta for this year!
Anyway, I'll post more after the holidays! So enjoy!!!
