Rachel is 10 months today. She seems to have take a jump in development in the past few months.
She can now go up the steps and stairs. She can also go down the stairs but seems to struggle with the steps. She seems to have some of the same sense of caution that Andrew had. She is pulling herself up on furniture and she is building up the strength in her leg muscles. She can basically get anywhere on the ground floor of the house if the doors are open. She has even been found on the deck following big brother, who can now open the outside doors.
She has recently found her voice again. She is practicing lots of different sounds but no words yet.
Her fifth tooth is coming through quite slowly.
Andrew and Rachel play together at times. It must be confusing for Rachel as Andrew doesn't believe in having consistent expectations. This means that some times she is allowed to play with his toys and then she is told NO!!!!!!.

She seems to have finally worked out how to sleep all night but thinks that wake up time is around 5:45. Mummy doesn't normally get her up until after 6am as prior to that it is still night time.
Below are a few photos I took the other day. I didn't manage to capture her smiling.
It may look like the world is coming to an end, but big brother has just decided that she shouldn't be playing with whatever she was playing with. I have to say I quite liked the facial expression.

It may look like she is standing in this photo but she is actually leaning on her toy.
