Rachel Turns 3

 Oh my goodness this girl has been a little ball of energy and sass since she started walking. She knows what she wants all the time and has no trouble bossing around people 5x her age to get what she wants. I love how articulate and self sufficient she is. On the morning of her birthday she woke up early and opened this doll from her grandparents.
 Then she and Scotty helped make her cake. 
 When all the siblings got home it was present time.
 I love pictures of all the kids gathered around watching siblings open presents. I know there are sparks of jealousy as they check out all the goods but these are the pictures I think they'll all look back on and like to see their interactions.
She has been "borrowing" Lucy's music box for months so she was thrilled to get her own.
 Is this picture a classic? Mallie has been Rachel's mini mom since Hattie was born. It solidified their bond and Mallie is probably the only one who could keep her from blowing out the candles without getting bitten.
 Even though she is crazy independent I adore that about her. I find her personality fascinating and love to just observe what she comes up with.
 Happy Birthday Rachel Grace!! Here's to 3 going on 13!!
