Rolly Polly

Rachel has really taken off! She is all over the place and she keeps me really busy! She is very close to crawling and I think it's going to happen anyday now.

Helping Daddy pack

Michael left today for a month of training in Wisconsin. This is in preparation for his deployment to Iraq next month. We let Rachel play in his gear while he was packing. I think we were more entertained than her!

Hopefully the gas mask fits her dad better!

The bullet proof vest was a bit bigger than Rachel but it made a good chair for her.

Rachel's First Easter

Rachel and Cade had a few disagreements over toys but still had fun playing together.

Enjoying the heat

GJ and Grandpa Jost came to visit

During Spring break Michael's parents came to visit. We had a nice relaxing break and Rachel got some quality time with her grandparents! She even put her feet in the ocean for the first time while they were here, she didn't like it much though.
