Monkey Joe's

We met Riley & her family for a playdate at Monkey Joe's this morning. The girls had a great time! Bailey didn't really like the play section for her; she just preferred sliding down the big slides with Eric or Reagan or both!

Bailey just basically stood there, she did walk over to me when I moved to the other side

UGA vs Georgia Southern

Reagan & I went to the UGA/Ga Southern game on Saturday and had a great time, even with the heat. We swung by & picked up Mom & Kelly and then headed to the tailgate. We had a great time tailgating (I don't have any pics from that, but Kelly took some) and visiting with everyone. It was an early game plus the unveiling of the new Uga, so we didn't tailgate too long. Everyone headed to the game early so they were there to see the #1 team in the nation along with the new Uga (since some of our crew missed our team coming out in the black jerseys vs Auburn last season). Reagan was very excited to see the new Uga and kept talking about it. She did really well in the heat but was ready to go not too long into the 2nd quarter. I wasn't going to make her sit in the heat so we left the game early and headed home. Plus I had already seen and heard most everything I wanted to (the new Uga and the team run out on the field as "your #1 ranked Georgia Bulldogs). Kelly was ready also, so she left with us and we dropped her off at Mom & Dad's house. Go Dawgs!

Reagan's 4 yr checkup

Reagan had her 4 yr old checkup this past week and did really well. She answered the doctor and even let the doctor check her over without any issues or "fights". She weighs 39.5 lbs and is 40 inches tall. She is growing well the doctor said and is in the 90% for her height. She was to not have any shots this checkup those were to come at her 5 yr check up; well she must have those shots before we can register for Kindergarten next May. So Reagan decided to go ahead and get her shots at this appt! She got 4 shots, 2 in the leg and then 2 more in the arm (one in each arm). She did really well but started to cry some after the last shot in the arm. Very brave girl!!!

First Day of Ballet

Reagan was so thrilled that the first day of ballet had finally arrived! My meeting ended early so I was able to get home and assist in getting her ready, Eric didn't want to put tights on Reagan. She was so excited as she got dressed! It was crazy when we got there since it was the first day of classes but she did fine. They gathered her class up and most of them all walked in a line to the studio room. All parents went in at first to hear the basic rules, etc and then we all left. We were able to watch most of the class since the studio next to her room was empty. She did so good and she never clung to us at all! She listened really well (which we expected since she got best listener in her school class last year) and danced all around. We really enjoyed watching her have so much fun!

Getting the hair pulled back for the first Ballet class!

The Wild Child!

So I have a few pictures of our wild child Bailey! Most everyone thinks she is the perfect child ever! Even though we do think she is wonderful we tend to disagree on some of those things because she is constantly into things!! So I thought I would post a few pictures to show that she can get into things!

Here is how she fell asleep napping
Here is how Eric found her the other day!
Then he got her down and she got back up and tried to chew on the bar and that didn't work
The climber!
Poor thing got bit pretty bad at school on Monday, she got bit again on Tues but it wasn't as bad

Reagan turns 4!

Wow, can't believe Reagan is now turning 4! Just amazing how fast it all goes! With the Olympics on right now, that really brings back the memories of her birth and those sleep deprived days afterwards since that was going on during that timeframe. The one event that stands out the most (besides some of the swimming and gymnastics since that was on the whole night we were in the hospital in L&D) is the womens marathon. I just remember sitting there at the table so tired (of course not knowing that I was going to get mastitis in a few days) and watching Deena Kastor in the marathon and finish third to get a medal! I got emotional over that mostly because I was so tired, but of course I'm a runner also and just admire anyone that can not only just run a marathon but run one as fast as she can and as often as she knows. So as we watched the womens marathon on Saturday night it just really brought back those memories of our first few days at home with Reagan.

We had the family over to celebrate her birthday, pretty much everyone was there, except Krista & Chad. The girls had a great time playing inside and outside and just running around. Tyler had a great time eating and trying to tackle Jonathan (not sure if Jonathan liked that though).

But Reagan is just thrilled to finally be 4! She has been waiting all week to turn 4.

Below are some pictures from the family party and they are out of order somewhat, but I was just trying to get them posted for everyone to see.

Quick thanks to Brandon for taking some of the pictures!
