Reagan's imagination

She cracks me up. Sometimes she really reminds me of things I used to do. Tonight, Reagan decided to put her little play plastic doggies (from a barbie thing) into some water. When Jim wouldn't let her play with it in the living room, I suggested she go into the bathroom. She did.

I have no idea what she did, but she asked for many supplies at different times during the playtime. She asked for a boat (for the dogs), a rower thingy and some other stuff.

She played for at least thirty minutes in this bathroom. I went in later to use it and realized her stuff was still floating in the sink. I left it there. :)

Reagan is playing dolls

It is so cute to watch Reagan's imagination. She started drawing today in the basement. Then she grabbed her Barbie and just started playing. Next thing I knew, I heard her saying "it's okay, mama's gotcha". Ha! That's what I say. :) She was tucking her baby into bed. Actually, she had colored a piece of paper front and back and wrapped it around the barbie doll. Then she glued it shut with a glue stick. Even cuter.

Now she is waiting for her doll to wake up from a nap by eating her peanut butter sandwich.

Should I go wake Maddy up now?

Slide

Reagan loves to pretend. That isn't particularily unusual for a child, but her mind just cracks me up. I love watching what she will come up with next. Tonight, in her room, she made a slide. Out of what you might ask? A blanket. Hmmm. She actually tried to slide down it and convinced me that she did.

Reagan is pretending

Reagan's level of pretending has gone up a level. She really has embraced the Barbie element in her play and has started to make up her own games and jokes. I love watching her imagination at work.

Tonight, she made up this game with a bunch of Maddy's toys. It was called the Name game. I have no idea what we were supposed to do. She pretty much made it up as she went. But I had to just sit back and enjoy the ride. She just gets into it.

My parents came up and got swooped in as well. My dad and I played with her for a while. I wish I would have taken a picture of "the board". I did not. Maybe I can set it up again.

None the less, my little girl is expanding her brain and creativity.

Another mommy?

Reagan now has another mommy. Wow. When did that happen? I love her imagination.

Reagan's imagination

She has got such an active imagination. I can't believe how much she just plays. She's always talking and coming up with scenarios in her mind. Sometimes I have a hard time keeping up with her.

Reagan is so funny

Reagan is so funny. She's got such a cute personality. She's always making up stories and songs. She loves imaginative play and she is quite good at it. Tonight, she was picking out books to read at bedtime. She got all of her Dora books - about 12 of them. She gathered them on the floor, spread them out and then asked us to call out a number. She grabbed them up and said "ok, now I have to pay for them". What?? Ok, so she paid for them. Then we could read them.

Pets of all kinds

Apparently we have all sorts of pets in our home - dinasour, lions, hyenas, moose and dogs. How do we have that much room?
