what do you see? is Rachel's favorite new book. It's a great one that introduces colors and big, colorful things like bears, ducks, frogs and teachers. (Drew tried to tell Rachel this morning that purple is the color of Willy the Wildcat, the mascot of Northwestern. Personally, I hope she does better than we did:)).
She had a brief bout last week with foot, hand and mouth (disease? syndrome? who knows?). Bottom line: it consists of blisters in the mouth, on the hand and on the feet and comes with a low-grade fever. She blew through it in half a day and is now back to her smiley self and healthy appetite intact. I am hoping this bodes well for future bouts with various illnesses.
She has started to point to ducks, pigs, cats and dogs in the books we read, and I obligingly make duck, pig, cat and dog noises. She has been babbling up a storm the last few days and some of the gibberish comes out as weird words, like "jimmy" and "mommy" and "baba." I am really looking forward to the day we can understand what she's saying!
