Another day at the park

Thursday, October 2, 2008

Since it was actually warm outside this afternoon I thought we should head out to the park after picking Piper up from school. I found Tina online and told her she should head over too after her kids got home. We all had a great time!

Where did our tans go already?

Wow, someone else to take pictures for me - what a perk!

My litte rock collector
Emily showing off her skils, Reagan thought it was pretty cool.
I don't know what was so interesting in this tree, the berries maybe?
Piper bumped her head and so she was a litte overly sensitive when the other kids didn't want to climb the tree and get the "cherries" for her.



Christmas wishes already

Wednesday, September 24, 2008

Piper has been saying "I want that" to every toy commercial she sees - imagine that? Well for the past few weeks I've mentioned that she should remember the things she "wants" for Christmas ideas. This evening she brought me a piece of paper and a marker and told me to write some things down for her. I didn't make any suggestions, just dictated her wishes. She'd like some games and something else and the sweetest things she wished for was a trip to Chuck E Cheese and to stay with Grandma and Papa and go to Florida. What a little sweetie.

Potty training?????

Tuesday, September 23, 2008

So I got a wild hair to try out some potty training today just to see if Reagan would respond. We have never had cleaner floors, they have been fully scrubbed a few times today but just a few minutes ago Reagan (while actually wearing a diaper) sat on her potty and looked upset so I took her diaper off and she sat back down and pee'd a little. Wow! Now if I can buckle down and actually follow through maybe there is hope for early training. We will see, this is NOT my favorite thing to do but I am hopefully that I can give it a good try while she's in a cooperative stage.

We're in trouble now

Sunday, September 21, 2008

I'll have to get a picture but Reagan has started climbing. She figured out that she could climb onto the kitchen chairs today and help herself to Piper's food (after she's done eating her own). With her new skills of course there are new slips and bumps. Her forehead finally healed from bumping Piper's dresser and then she tumbled down a few of the stairs just a few days ago and got a new goose egg and bruise.

I have been telling Piper for months now that once Reagan can climb we are in trouble, she won't be able to keep any of her things out of Reagan's reach. Now she's going to have to really make sure her markers and crayons are put away. More work for both Piper and Mommy.
