Spring is in the Air!!!

Hope you all enjoy the variety of pics. The pictures I post have no theme b/c I wait so long to post, so here they are...OMG Reagan has been saying some funny things here lately- thought I would share them with you all. I made homemade spaghetti sauce the other night and Reagan really liked it... when she was eating she said, "Mommy, this is delicious!" And we had sweet tea with our supper (Reagan's favorite, although we don't let her drink it very much.) This tea was especially sweet and she drank it and said, "mmm, mmm, mmm!" A true Southern Girl! My spaghetti sauce had chunks of mushrooms and green peppers in it. (Austin and Reagan aren't big fans of chunky sauce, but I love it!) So, Reagan came across a green pepper and said, "Mommy, what is this?" I told her what it was and she said, "Well, let's just put it over here..." and she slide it to the side of her plate! Like Father like daughter I suppose! :) Yesterday we had to take Cara Grace to the doctor- she somehow got pink eye. Who knows where... anyway, on our way I thought it would be nice to go to Starbuck's drive through. I got my change purse out and started counting my change to see if I had enough $ for a latte. Reagan said, "Mommy, whatcha doing? Counting your change for coffee?" She knows me too well and she's super observant! Oh and when we go through any drive through now, she always wants me to roll her window down so she can place "her order..." Yesterday when we were getting Cara Grace's eye drop prescription filled there was a local "redneck" in line behind us. (We were at the drive thru window. Which can be slow.) Well, the guy behind us was getting really impatient and finally squealed tires and went in to get his prescription filled. When he drove by us he was yelling cuss words. I thought what an idiot! A grown man getting mad for having to wait 5 minutes in line....Well, I told Reagan that we are surrounded by white trash living in Hudson. She said, "White Trash?" "White Trash, White Trash." I started laughing and she said, "That's funny! Mommy, is Daddy going to take out the White Trash!!!" LOL!! I love it! So, Reagan has been quite the character lately! She makes me laugh!

Everybody else is doing great! The weather here has gotten really warm, I love it! It's suppose to get into the 80's this weekend, wow! So, we will be playing in the yard a lot tomorrow. Soon it will be garden time- I can't wait! This year, I want to plant cucumber in addition to our usuals. So, until next time....

Lots to say...

Well, as usual it's been too long since my last post! Oh well, here goes....
Lately Reagan has become quite the daddy's girl. I guess since little Cara Grace has come along, I haven't had an over abundance of time with her. So, it's daddy to the rescue!!! A couple of weeks ago I had a lot of errand running to do several nights in a row. This left Reagan alone with her Austin for some "daddy/daugher" time. Since that week, she has been attached to her daddy. Now when she's tired and cranky she asks for her daddy! What? I couldn't believe it! But, I'm glad that she is developing a closer bond with him. Last night, Austin gave Reagan a bath. After her bath we sit her in the sink to dry her hair. I was out in the kitchen finishing up some dishes. It seemed like they were taking longer than usual and I didn't her anything. So, I went in the bathroom to check on them. I couldn't believe what I saw... Austin had my little spiral curling iron our making little tendril curls all over Reagans head. And she was loving it!!! I had to laugh! Austin was getting in tune with his femine side. But, I love it!!! He is such a great dad. He even paints Reagan's finger nails too!

Also, last weekend we FINALLY broke Reagan of her paci. I know what you all are saying...."Just now?" Yes, unfortunately she had been using it at night and naptimes. So, this past Friday we said enough! The first night for Reagan was very hard. She was like a druggy going through detox! She cried for about two hours and then fell asleep only to wake up a few hours later. I ended up sleeping in her bed that night. I guess for moral support. So, now, almost a week later she is doing much better! Last Saturday morn. I took our all of her pacis and Reagan and I cut the ends of them off. She was very sad but understood... (I think...)

Not much to report about Cara Grace. She is doing so well! She is eating like a little chow hound and sleeping very well. She is still getting up once a night to eat, but then will sleep until 9 a.m. So, I can't complain too much. She was 4 mo. old as of March 1st. I can't believe how fast the time goes! Cara Grace loves to smile and smiles all the time! She is a very content baby! She is also laughing now and is very ticklish. And she is starting to get better and better about riding in the car. She loves, loves, loves watching her mobile in her crib. She squeals very loud while watching it!
