Rachael Enjoys Another Summer Day

Another Summer day and Rachael tells us that she wants to go outside and walk! She walked back and forth between the neighbors' houses and our house. She's great with the walking, but still working on the steering. Apparently her cart is designed to go offroading. She can walk twice as far with her cart as she could just a week or two ago.

She tells us that all the toddlers are wearing cool sunglasses these days, and that she simply MUST have a pair. We snapped this picture right before she took them off. She averaged about five seconds before they needed to be investigated. We tried this about 8 times before we decided that maybe sunglasses are more fun than functional.

After exhausting herself with walking and abandoning her ride, Rachael decide to continue with her botany. She found a nice shady spot and resumed her investigations. Every leaf and blade of grass within reach needed careful study. We are working on conveying to her that research does not involve putting everything in her mouth, but that seems to be a losing battle. :)

Love the sunglasses! I was wondering how you managed to keep them on her face...until I read that you didn't! : ) I must admit a streak a terror does run through me when I think about both my girls being this mobile at the same time!
