Blogging While Napping...

Today, while Reagan naps (could be 10 minutes, could be an hour...we never know:), I thought I would take a moment to tell you a few more things - besides the laundry situation - that have changed in our house.

1.  I am able to do almost anything one-handed.  Laundry, check.  Cooking, check.  Responding to an email, check.  Yup, seems that my child loves to be carried.  Thank God for baby slings!

2.  There are now anywhere from 1 to 3 burp rags in every room of our house.  They are in the car, hanging on the stair railing, tossed on the couch...you name it, there's a burp rag on it.

3.  Anywhere you fall asleep is suitable for nap time:


4.  I've heard the same 5 songs over and over since Reagan was born - and will probably hear them for the next 9 months.  Heck, we don't even need the swing or the mat's musical devices anymore...Jason and I can whistle the tunes perfectly.  

5.  Bath time is sacred.  Who knew that water could pacify someone so quickly?  This girl may as well be part fish - she loves the water...and the special time she spends with Daddy:


6.  Although we have no "schedule," our lives revolve around feeding times!  We plan everything according to the next feeding.  It's both absolutely ridiculous, and absolutely necessary!

7.  And no matter how much a baby cries or frustrates you, if she's wearing bunnies on her feet, she'll always make you smile:

    Love the outfit! I can relate to planning everything about a feeding schedule. Completely 100% necessary!

NC Girls' Weekend

Image
Since Jason is out of town, we decided to schedule an impromptu girls weekend visit in North Carolina. It was great to see Lynsey & Colleen and their families. Jessica, the girls and I drove down Friday night and got to Lynsey's just before midnight. We didn't do much, but hang around the house and play outside on the first day. It was relaxing and fun. Brian was awesome and played with the kids while Jess, Lynsey & I did a workout in their amazing home gym. Colleen came up with the boys around lunch time on Saturday. All the kids fawned over Miles, or as they have names him, Baby My My. I think Savannah really enjoyed not being the youngest for a few days. Saturday night, we ordered pizza, ate way too much, and Grammy Betty came over. We haven't seen her in a long time and it was wonderful to chat with her again.  The next day, we woke up to some snow! We played outside again and the kids played well together which was nice for us adults. Colleen and the boys

Bath Time Fun

Image
Typically, after Jason gets home and eats dinner, he is on bath duty. It gives me 10 minutes to clean the kitchen, set up his coffee and make his lunch for the following day. One day last week though, everything was already done, so I snuck in to watch the fun. We recently got some Mr. Bubbles for Reagan and she LOVED them. She's such a cheeseball!

Bath Time: PAHM Style

Image
I've mentioned it before, but I will say it again: I love Play At Home Mom !!! This site is the best for ideas to interact with, engage, and teach your children. Reagan takes a bath almost every night. She has the typical assortment of toys (rubber boats, cups, a turtle, etc) to entertain her, but lately, she just leaves them in the bag. I decided to introduce some new things during bath time and they were a huge hit! Here are some pictures from our "adventures in bath fun." First up: BUBBLES ! It's a bit too cold to just hang out in the yard blowing bubbles, so I decided that bath time would be the perfect opportunity for a mess free bubble party! I LOVE this shot.  Secondly, (and straight from PAHM), I added: WATER BALLOONS !!! She absolutely loved when I poked a small hole in them and they became "water fountains!"
