Reagan and Her Grandma!

Even though Reagan isn't quite old enough to know how blessed she is to have such a wonderful Grandma, you can already tell just how much she loves her.  Grandma eagerly awaited Reagan's arrival in July and has spoiled her since that wonderful day she finally graced us with her presence.  We just wanted to say thank you for everything!  Can't wait to see you again soon. 





What makes grandmas special?
Is it their beautiful laughing eyes
And their tender good-byes?
Is it their wonderful smiles
That make life worthwhile?

Maybe it's their warm loving hugs,
That seems to comes by the mugs.
They never make you feel "uncool"
And never ever like a fool.

Their glorious voice is like an angel above
That tells you you are what they cherish and love.
Every gift from her is a treasure,
As delicate and precious as a feather.

The sweet delicious smell that comes from her oven
Could only be that of a grandma spoiling you rotten.
And even though the things above seem to make grandma more fun,
Nothing could be more special than her love.

by April Sawyer in honor of her grandmother

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!"
