Nothing out of the ordinary has been happening.. Halloween was a HUGE BUST!!!! . Rachel picked out her costume in early Sept & I might add that its very cute.. & thats all she talked out was wearing her witch costume & how she was going trick or treating.. well the day came & ohhh boy is all i have to say.. She was teething & would not put her costume at all.. NO WITCH COSTUME, NO TRICK OR TREATING!!!!! is what I heard about 50 times that day... at least I do have one pic of her the day we tried on her costume, well theres always next year..
October was baseball playoff season in my house.. I am a HUGE Yankee fan, no needless to say I was quite happy with the world series finish this year. Ive turned Rachel into a fan too.. heres the outfit Kristi sent her.. look how cute...
Rach is talking talking talking.... shes speaking in complete sentences now & some of the things that come out of her mouth are a riot.. I was constantly yelling at the tv during the baseball playoff's so one day Rachel said to me... "mommy, thats a bad word & dont say it again". my response was WOW, now I'm getting orders from my 2 year old..
Last night she told me that she wanted jello & I told her that I didnt have any so she looked at me & told me "call Bati, she has some in the fridge". She's got a mean temper,and is soooooooo not a girly girl, she would rather play with trucks & animals, shes got no use for dolls.. but she's really a sweet little girl.
I was off from work on election day so I dedcided to take Rachel for her christmas pics.. yep, another nitemare. We went to Target( where I always go for pics, they are cheap & take good shots) well.. Rachel wasnt having it, so after an attempted bribery that didnt work & about 30 minutes of trying to get 1 shot, we left... Needless to say Iwas aggravated so I called Kiddie Kandids to see if they have an available appt. Rachel was already dressed to I figured what the hell right? So we went & they did manage to get a few shots but I cost me like 200.00 dollars & I got hardly any pics.. well theres always next year right? UGH!!
We had a few Guattot get togethers this month, one with Patty & her son Antonio & one with Debbie & her Daughter Marissa. Next week we are planning a christmas guatot get together, there will be 4 families, so that should be nice..
Thanksgivng turned out well, we were at my house with about 15 people.. It was nice to spend the day with family & not be sick..
Today it is 2 years that I met Rachel for the first time.. OMG, she was sooooooooo tiny. I cant believe its been 2 years already... I look back at the pics from my trip & I remember like it was yesterday..Joanna & Myla were there when I arrived & I even got to meet Marla. The next day Kristi arrived to meet Elli (rachels best friend) We had so much fun with the girls.. Kristi is such a good friend & I miss her.. Here are a few pics from my trip..
The pics are arranged weird & I dont know why lol
The Yankeeeeeeeeeeeees WIN!!!!

Beautiful Pics Alex. Amazing how those times all still stay so fresh in our minds. They are special moments that will always be remembered. I am a total scatter brain, cant remember sh**, but I can tell you anything about all of our visits including how I had Guacamole with just about every meal while there. LOL.
I know your little chica always gives u a hard time when it comes to taking professional pics. Anjoli is "usually" fine. Let me tell you she was a mess,just horrible for our Christmas Pics. I took her and had her hair done and we didnt even get 1 good shot. She kept making funny faces and rolling her eyes or she'd smile so big her eyes would just close shut. It was crazy. Take 2 a week later....same thing. We managed to get one ok shot but I wasnt too thrilled with it. But hey, whatever I managed to get one shot and saved some money cause all I got were our Christmas Cards, no extras. Wow this should have been an email. Oops. Sorry. Super Sized Comment. Send me your home address to Suki4198@comcast.net
I miss you guys too... I love having you all in my life..Adoption has blessed us in way I never even imagined..
