6 months!

Reagan is 6 months!  I say this every month, but how can this be!! Time goes by sooooooo fast!!! This age is super fun!

We have teeth!! If you look closely you can see them!!

What a silly girl!

I love my feet!!!

Reagan first time to enjoy yummy oatmeal!  She loved it!

Reagan's first Halloween!  She was a cupcake. 

And we are done!  Get this baby home and to bed!

Love the chevron!

 My loves:

 

Facts about Reagan:

Weight: 15 pounds 14 oz.  She used to be in the 90th percentile.  Now she is average.  I was a little worried, but Dr. Rassmussen said this is normal.  With her playing so much, she is burning more calories. 

Height: 25.59 inches (average)

 

Eating:

This month we have started to eat cereal!  We mix it with apple juice and she loves it!!!  She eats it twice a day!  She still has her milk 6 times a day. 

 

Play:

Reagan LOVES to play!  She still loves hanging out in the exersaucer, but only when we are with her.  She does not like it when we walk away or clean the kitchen.  She also loves playing on the floor when there are a bunch of toys.  This girl can play!  Miss Lindsi and Miss Jade are always talking about how surprised they are about her stamina.  What can I say, she's a party animal!

 

Tricks/Discoveries/ Sounds:

Reagan loves to scream when she is excited.  It's really cute!  Sometimes she surprises herself.  She has started reaching for everything!  If Jerry and I have it in our hands, she wants it.  She especially likes our phones.  She has also started reaching for Lucy and Rowdy.  They are still a little nervous about her, but she is fearless.  She is also sitting up by herself.  She's still a bit wobbly, but she can sit up for a good 10 seconds by herself. 

 

Sleep:

Well.... we could stand to improve a little in this area.  Lately she has been waking up 2-3 times a night wanting to be held or her pacifier.  This is getting a bit old....I can't wait for the day when I get to sleep 7 hours straight without any interruptions. 

 

 

Reagie-roo,

 

I love you sooooooo much.  You are just so perfect.  Everything you do makes me smile!  I love it when I catch your eye and you smile at me.  These past 6 months have been the best ever.   You are such a sweetie and I feel lucky to get to spend time with you everyday!  I love you!

Reagan's first school assignment- Family Ties!

Reagan has her first school assignment!!! I was so excited!  Maybe a little too excited! 

 

Here is the assignment:

Miss Lindsi is teaching a unit on family.  Each family was given a tie.  Our job was to decorate a tie (picture below) with things about our family.  When we finished the tie it would be added to a turkey.  Each tie represents a feather. 

 

Jerry was either really tired or really concentrating on how he wanted to decorate the tie.  Rowdy was his assistant.  

Both of us were pretty excited, so we decided to make up a little competition.  I would decorate a tie and Jerry would decorate a tie.  We would take a picture of it and send it to family and friends. 

 

Jerry and I went to our separate corners and this is what we came up with.  The one of the right is mine and the left is Jerry's.  Just an FYI, the brown things on the right are not baseball mitts.  It's supposed to be a turkey. 

 

Well.... the results were tallied and I won!  Hooray!  On Sunday we started the assignment.  Turns out it is REALLY hard to get a 6 month old's hand print.  Jerry, Reagan, and I probably looked like the 3 Stooges! 

 

Below is a Reagan's hand, but it has been "doctored" a bit. :)

 

We had such a great time!  I can't wait to see the next assignment!

Dallas Arboretum!

This past month we went with the Brunson's to the Dallas Arboretum.  It was really fun!  I'm so glad Reagan and Mackenlie are going to grow up together! 

Here are some pictures!

 

 

We had a great time!
