Last year we took pictures of Rachel with our beautiful Lilacs.
It seemed only fitting to do it again this year. (Incidentally, this was 2 days before the snowstorm.)
Rachel loves, loves, loves to be outside. She also likes to be barefoot and explore the way things feel on her feet.
She decided that we all should smell the lilacs. Rachel smelled them...
I smelled them...
and Zoe smelled them.
Then she decided to taste them.
I can almost see the cognitive wheels turning in her head. "What should I try now?"
"I wonder what happens when you scrape the flowers on the ground."
I love watching Rachel explore and grow. What a wonderful year it has been.
Gorgeous! Rachel and the lilacs! I think lilacs have to be one of my favorites!
ReplyDeleteWhat a difference a year makes! Rachel is as cute as always and I'm so glad you catch all of her explorations.
ReplyDeleteAwww...she was so tiny! I could look at a million pictures of Rachel, she's got such a cute personality to go along with the the adorableness of the exterior.
ReplyDeleteI'm with Angie - what a drastic change in just 1 year! Hard to believe how much is packed into such a little time.
ReplyDeleteShe is an absolute doll! But then, I'm sure you know that. Oh yeah, I'm super jealous of your lilacs!
What adorable pics! She's SO cute!
