our weekend

Jake is on a business trip for the weekend-yeah he gets to spend my birthday in another state. Fun. Anyway, he requested a few pictures, so here's a few of our activities yesterday and today:

The cat from next door came to visit and was having so much fun laying on top of this pot--the plant that used to be growing in there is long since dead. Rachel, of course always has a ball when Leila comes to visit.

Leftover donut holes from a baby shower I helped with yesterday. Nyum, nyum, nyum (she says it all the time, especially when she's pretending to feed a doll or stuffed animal of hers).

I got some birthday money from my inlaws and went and spent it yesterday at Ace on garden stuff (thanks!). Rachel found this cute watering can so I got it for her to "help" me with watering the plants.

My visiting teacher brought over some rice krispy treats for me after church and Rachel walked around eating one. I was in the other room and heard a bump-thump and when I went to investigate this is what I found:

Rachel is really in to sitting on things now, or climbing on things so she can sit on them, and she tried to sit on the box, but there was no top so she just chilled in there eating her rice krispy treat. When I helped her out she went back and tried to sit there again so I turned the box over so she would have an actual seat. :)
