Rachel's 3rd Birthday

We got new family pictures taken.



It's Rachel's Happy Third Birthday today. We celebrated a couple of days ago when Grandma Henrie was visiting. We had a really good time.

Rachel really love to get new clothes, she was very pleased with this new hoodie from Grandma.
All in all, we all enjoyed Rachel's birthday a lot

Sushi Dinner

My mother in law took us out to dinner at our favorite Sushi restaurant. We had a really great time. Rachel also likes sushi. First we ate edamame, which she is crazy about, she just devoured those little beans. Then came the sushi, she ate: Shrimp, crab, eel, and lots of tuna. She really enjoyed the tuna sashimi . YUM!! Oh! she also managed to use her chopsticks some what. She was able to pick up a piece of tuna and put it in her mouth.

The Great Grandparent Visit

Great Grandma and Grandpa Malmburg are down visiting for a few days. It is really great to see them. Rachel has had a lot of fun with them. She enjoyed a shopping trip and a pizza dinner. She told me how much she liked them. She always loves spending time with family. Oh and for those of you following my adventures, you might remember a promised hair cut. You can see it in these pictures. I will likely post better pictures soon.

Canadian Thanksgiving

My family got together this weekend to celebrate Canadian Thanksgiving. We all had a lot of fun. And best of all for the first time ever in our growing family, there was a kids table!!
Rachel took this lovely picture of me, I threw it in because, I guess this is supposed to be a blog about me so perhaps it should contain the occasional picture of me among the many of Rachel.

I got a couple of cute pictures of Rachel yesterday. The problem was getting them. I said, "oh, Rachel you look so cute, lets take your picture." she shouts "NOOooo" and runs away to try and hide. So it took a while, but we did get a couple of pictures eventually. Watch for big news next week. We are both getting new hair cuts OOOhhhh aaahhhh!!

Play-Doh Fun

I just like this picture of Rachel being silly. She was hiding, and when I found her with the camera, she laughed and laughed
Rachel had her cousin Jane over to play for the afternoon. They both enjoyed the play-doh very much

Of course that didn't mean Rachel wanted to share everything
