Yay! Rachel's here!

...that was the reaction Drew said he got this morning when he dropped Rachel off at daycare: The other kids seemed very excited to see her. They all gathered around Drew as he took her coat off, as if to say, "yay! Rachel's here! Let the games begin!"

Her daycare reports are pretty sunny: "Rachel was quite the chatterbox today. She had a lot to say." "Rachel had fun playing with her friends in the house." "Rachel loved looking at books and listening to songs being sung."

Drew thinks she has a little friend, Ruby. When he left daycare this morning, Rachel was reaching out to touch Ruby's face.

She cries when we leave her in the morning, but when we pick her up at night, she whines a little when we have to go.

Drew also reports that Rachel LOVES walking although she continues to need assistance. When she holds out her arms to us these days, it's not so much that she wants to be held; she just wants to hold hands with us so we can walk her around the house. A friend of ours who has a daughter a little younger than Rachel says her daughter likes to do laps around the house while her mom cooks dinner. She doesn't run, she just walks everywhere!

Rachel also said "hi" last night when he put her in the car seat. He said "hi!" back to her, and she answered "hi" again.
