Big Day

Last night was a little rough – I had to get up with her a few times. She’d cry out, but then be asleep when I’d get upstairs. If she didn’t have a cold (again), then I would probably let it go. But I worry too much to do that I guess. She was a happy thing all day though. She’d get really cranky when she was tired, but she played hard. We walked around two different houses today with both the girls. Jordan opted out of the first one to hang out with a friend that lived near the model, but Reagan stayed with us – not that she had a choice. She was fast asleep and stayed that way the entire way through the first house. She was up for the second house, but was still kinda sleepy. The first house was amazing. The owners had taken a smaller rectangular shaped Fort Mitchell home and added an L-shaped addition to the house with equaled anywhere from 850K to 1.2M. Wow. It was absolutely amazing. The stuff in the house wasn’t over the top at all, it was just nicely done and very tasteful. The two cool things about the home were the wallpaper – a thatch texture painted all white. It was stunning and elegant. I loved it. The other was the garage. The owner had fine taste in older cars and had outfitted an elongated two-car garage to accommodate 8 vehicles. Wow! It had two lifts at the back of the garage which held an old-Mercury and a Corvette. Nice huh.

We did watch her do some neat stuff today. She went from all fours (not crawling) back to a seated position. She started pulling up in a sturdier fashion on all her toys and us. The bad thing is when she pulls up on non-sturdy stuff, she pulls the toys on top of her. Thank goodness she doesn’t freak out easily. She loves to beat on her tin drum. We also tried using a sippy cup with her tonight. We bought three different kinds and none of them worked real well, but we’ll try again soon.
