Too Big Too Fast

I know that we as parents like to push our kids to reach the milestones faster so we can have bragging rights at the playground, but there are also lots of times that you just wish that your babies would stay babies. Since Rachel has her big sister to keep up with, she wants SO badly to crawl. She gets on the floor, rolls and scoots and tries SO hard to figure it out and then gets really mad when she just can't do it! I am not sure that I want her any more mobile than she already is, but like most things in life, I don't think I get much of a choice in the matter. Here are some pics of her playing in the floor this week. (I have learned that if I leave my camera out, I am much better at taking pics!)

Just within the last month or so Hannah has starting trying to play with Rachel and it is really cute. Here she is telling her about the corn she just cooked in her kitchen that she is holding and telling her it is hot. She then holds it in front of her face to eat it! It is really sweet to watch and makes me happy to see the bonds of sisterhood already forming.

Here is a short video of Rachel and her scooting and pushing up. She can get her legs both underneath her, even though I don't have that on this video. It just won't be long!
