Rachel keeps growing and growing! With General Conference this weekend and the Young Women's Meeting last weekend, Tori has been quite busy with her translating. Rachel and I listened to the Papiamento live stream on the internet this morning. Tori did great.... I think. I didn't actually understand anything that she said but it sounded terrific. Rachel kept looking around the room because she could hear her mommy's voice on the computer but couldn't find her anywhere. It was cute, but I think we thoroughly confused her!
Rachel is getting to where she can sit up on her own longer and longer without falling over and can even stand up (with help):
She will put anything that she can get her hands on in her mouth:
Rachel liked her cousin Corbin's "Johhny Jump-Up" so much that we bought her one of her own:
Rachel loves it because she can stand, spin, jump and play in it all by herself, and Mommy and Daddy love it because we can keep her happy without having to hold her all the time.
Today, against Daddy's advice Tori and Grandma Lloyd decided it would be a good idea to let her suck on a piece of black licorice. Rachel loved it but was quite a mess afterward:
Last week our Oldsmobile died. The 2007 Volvo S-80 Daddy wanted was a bit out of our price range, so we replaced it with this beauty instead:
It's a 1996 Chevy Corsica, and its main feature is that it runs and doesn't stall in the middle of I-15 like its predecessor did. Its a nice little car and should be good enough to get me to Murray and back for work each day.In other news, I found out this week that I was accepted into Weber State University's Construction Management Program. I'll start school again part-time this fall. I'll still work at Hamlet full-time, and it will be nice because the company will pay for my schooling.
I think that about does it for now. We'll try and take more pictures and update the blog more often in the future. Until then...
