Dancing

Rachel has been dancing up a storm lately.  Anytime she hears music she starts to swing her hips.  I've tried to get her dancing for the camera but every time she sees the camera come out she quits dancing for me.  So sorry I had to get the dance from the back.  It's so funny to watch.  Most the time she wants me and Scott to dance with her and we will but this time I just happened to get it without her knowing.

All Girl

So I have to say Rachel is all girl.  On Sunday I asked her if she wanted to get out of her dress and she said, "No."  So I left her in this dress all day long.  It was so cute because when I first put it on her that morning for church she looked at herself in the mirror and said, "Pretty."  I said, "Yep you are Pretty" and she said, "I Pretty."  It was so cute.  So I took a picture of her in the dress and her laptop.  She's gotten lots better with her laptop and actually listening to what it tells her.  Its so fun to watch her learning so much. 

Mother's Day

So this is my first Mother's Day that I can actually say I didn't have a problem going to church since Scott and I have been married.  Rachel of course was so funny in church.  She asked to go to Time Out and Scott said you only go to Time Out when your bad.  Well a few minutes later Rachel got away from us and took off running up onto the stage.  Scott sprinted off after her and I was laughing in the pew watching this all unfold.  That still didn't get her outside in Time Out but made for eventful sacrament meeting.  After church we came home and eat and all of us took naps.  Finally when Scott woke up he and Rachel made me a Mother's Day card and then gave me two weeks at a saloon.  I'm so totlaly excited to be able to get massages, facial etc.  That night I ended up making dinner for us because Scott was spinning Rachel around so much that it made him sick.  I wasn't sure he was going to be able to go to work but finally his equilibrium came back.  All in all a pretty nice mother's day for my first one.

Bathroom Time

Okay so if you have a weak stomach this post is probably not for you.  

So we have started to talk to Rachel about the toilet.  She has shown interest but hasn't totally gotten the concept.  So she was at the table eating lunch but totally looked like she was trying to fall asleep at the table.  Scott and I were laughing so hard at her about it.  Well come to figure out she was actually doing her "thing."  So when I got her down from the table to change her I said, "You should tell mom when your going to poop and let's poop in the toilet."  So she got up and headed over to the bathroom and was saying, "Poop in Toilet."  I was like yes that's what we need to do.  Well she then started to say, "I need to poop."  I was like you just pooped you don't need to poop again.  Well boy was I wrong because it wasn't more than 5 minutes after I changed her that she pooped her diaper again.  Scott laughed at me and said, "Well I guess she showed you!"  Yep she gets it a little bit.  So needless to say the rest of the day when she said the word toilet I put her on the toilet.  She hasn't gone yet but my hope is over Memorial Weekend to actually try hard to get this going.  I just thought this picture was to funny not to post of her in her sunglasses sitting on the toilet trying to go.
