Sick Mommy too!

Wednesday, April 23, 2008

The girls are feeling better thank goodness! Poor Mommy is feeling terrible though, I've been down for the count for two days now so I finally went to see a (gasp) Doctor today. Turns out I have an ear infection too. The Doctor took one look at my tonsils and said "have you seen those?, here come take a look" and made me look at them with her little light. She said those are so red and swollen you could have strep too so here are your antiobiotics, drink a lot of fluids. I tried to explain to her that my tonsils are always that big but they were a little extra red today, but not swollen. I've decided after two days of laying in bed as much as the girls will let me that I will be feeling better tomorrow. Off to bed to attempt sleeping, it's so challenging when your hot/cold all night.

sick girls

What a fun weekend we've had. Reagan has been fighting a cold all week but I didn't think too much of it. Her eyes have been goopy and then Piper's eye started getting red and goopy too. So off to Urgent Care we went. Turns out both girls have an ear infection and pink eye. FUN!!! I can't believe neither of them were complaining. I figured Reagan was teething and since she wasn't rubbing her eyes I figured the mess was part of her cold. Bad Mommy, I should have taken her/them in earlier in the week, maybe I could have prevented Piper from getting sick.

New things

Wednesday, April 16, 2008

Reagan said "uh, oh" today while eating lunch. She dropped her cup and said it pretty clearly, Piper and I looked at each other and were shocked. It was pretty cute!

She has also been taking steps. Last weekend it was 2 and then down. Robin and Claire said she would walk 3-4 feet between them. Last night she was walking from me to Piper and then back. It was very exciting for Piper that Reagan would actually come to her. Of course the first time she caught Reagan she then fell back and bumped her head on the floor. I was amazed that Reagan kept walking back to her.

Reagan's last new thing.....climbing the stairs. I know, it took her long enough but she's been too timid to climb more than the bottom step. Not anymore! She will scale the entire flight in 3 seconds. There are too many gates as it is and now there is another.

Ok, go below and enjoy the pictures!!

Finally, here are the pictures

I've finally gotten around to going through the pictures - there are 3 posts with a lot of pictures. While going through my pictures I figured out why my camera was acting up, after we wrapped presents the night before Reagan's Birthday Piper got a hold of the camera and was taking quite a few pictures. Well she must have knocked a setting out of whack because now I have it back to working well. It's kind of interesting, most of the pictures are blurry but there is one focus point in each of them. Hmmmm?
all dressed up before the Dedication
Reagan was great, not even timid

Mom and I snuck Reagan home during Church so she could get changed, fed and allow me to get everything ready.




Reagan was so good, I thought she'd be overwhelmed with all the people but she was a trooper, never complained. Piper of course was so excited to have almost all of her favorite people over at her house, she had a blast!



Reagan's cake, she broke the candle off before I could even light it - she tore this cake up! I think there were only crumbs left by the time she was through. We have another cake lover in the family!

Reagan and Aydan
Here are some of the guests - see, Sandi's in focus but everyone else is blurry - funny!


Piper was loving the fact that Aydan walked. Boy is she going to enjoy Reagan walking. Of course she was all over her, poor Aydan could barely move.
