More adventures with Rachel

Well, she definitely prefers going down the slide headfirst, as Drew discovered this weekend. If he let her, she'd pitch herself down the long curly slide at Grant Park. One of the daycare ladies told me today that's highly unusual!

She shared breakfast with Drew on Sunday -- and he does mean share. She had part of his hard-boiled egg, his scone (she seems to have developed a fondness for scones, which we both eat) and WHEATIES. He was very pleased about the Wheaties, since up until now she has only eaten Cheerios.

At the farmers market on Saturday, the vendors kept remarking how great it was to see Rachel eagerly eat all the fresh fruit Drew kept handing up to her. She sits in the backpack while he does the marketing, hands samples to her and she goes to town. We are so lucky she loves all the fresh produce Portland has to offer.

And, Drew reports, she can crawl UP the stairs. No progress yet on crawling down. Or walking unassisted. We are holding our breaths.
