Daddy's Girl

Man, my kid sure likes her dad...well, I guess he kinda likes her, too. At least he says he does... :)

Just because they get looked over too often...my other babies:

The Ghostess with the Mostest

Halloween time! I love halloween. We got Rayne the cutest little costume, actually a friend gave it to us. I couldn't decide what to put her in , so it was nice my friend gave me one so I didn't have to decide.

Today was Pumpkin Patch day. Last year we went with Cliffee. It's too bad she can barely walk, it would have been fun to bring her again. We had a great time, though. Picked out a couple of pumpkins, had some yummy pumpkin pie.....then went home for a nice warm nap.

My Kid

Wow, what a great person she is. Rayne has so much personality and is always so happy. She wakes up in the morning smiling like she hasn't seen us in a week. She is now saying Bub-bub, ma-ma, and da-da. She says do-do at the dogs (once, I swear, she said doggie :) ). She rolls and scoots all over, but still not crawling. She stands up easily and can take steps while holding on - usually sideways, but forward and back when holding on to me.

The whole family is just now getting over being sick, but with Rayne in daycare I guess we will all probably be sick for the next year. Of course, our immune systems will be aces after that.

Rayne is now working on eating chunkier foods, like mandarin oranges, banana pieces, and Cheerios. She tries to get the food in her mouth by herself, but it usually falls out of her hand first (Molly is starting to love this kid thing). She ate chicken for the first time last night (Healthy Timez Little Bear's Chicken Stew) and really seemed to like it. Heck, she likes everything. Lots like mom.....

8 Months

Baby Rayne is 8 months old today! She is such a big girl, and so much fun to be around.

This weekend she got to show off her cute new raincoat. She is quite the camera ham!

She is battling a tough little cold right now, but is being a terrific sport about it.
Rayne becoming very mobile, though not yet crawling, she scoots and rolls enough that we have to keep quite an eye on her. She pulls herself up very easily, and even lets go - as long as mom is close by to catch her - to stand on her own for a minute. Not long now she'll be cruising around after poor Molly!
