I'm not goopy
Well, she wasn't goopy this morning when she woke up. I wonder if the humidifier made that big of a difference. She didn't have it on Saturday night and she woke up congested. I turned it on last night and she woke up totally fine. Hmmm

Chili Contest
Jim is entering a Chili Contest. This means that he's making a lot of chili. He's really not, but we are having it every weekend. Yesterday he made a smoky apple chili that was fantastic. I know I ate way too much of it, but it was really good. The contest is this weekend at a local church fair. Cross your fingers he wins. If he does, his recipe will be on the menu over the winter with his name on it. How cool is that?
Paul, Emily and Little man Sean
The Cahills came over this afternoon for a visit. They showed up about 2pm and stayed until a little after 7pm. As soon as Reagan got up, the kids were playing on the floor together. Since Reagan is getting more mobile, it's easier for her to play with Sean.
They did really well together. I don't think Reagan hit him once. Ha ha. I took tons of pictures, of course, of the two of them together. It's been so long since I've seen him. He's just so darn cute and photogenic. he heeee.
After we ate some of Jim's new chili, the guys passed out on the couches. Emily and I were on the floor with the kids. Sean eventually laid down with his daddy and it made it "the boys are sleeping and the girls are playing". Too cute.
We had a nice visit with them. Hopefully next time we'll hit the pool.

Goopy eyes
Oh No! She's got the Goopy Eyes! I woke her up this morning and her little eyes were almost glued shut with the yellow goop. I wasn't really sure what to do other than wipe it off. By the way, that makes her really mad. :) She hates her face being wiped off, unless she's in the tub, and hates her eyes being touched even more. And that stuff is really hard to get off of the eyes and eye lashes. It's amazing. It's like super glue.
She had it all day. We called the doctor in the morning and he thought it was probably just a cold bug, or the leftovers from it. Sometimes that snot backs up out of their little eyes instead of their noses. Ugh! That's stinks. But at least she could breathe.
The good thing is that she was happy most the day. She did get cranky towards the end of the day but all in all, she was ok.

Mama
This morning, when I walked into her room, she looked at me and said "mama". Just simple Mama. No Babbling before or after. She said it!
Reagan is mobile!
Ok - I'm just putting a bunch of stuff in this blog because I am just short on time. But I wanted to keep the baby updates posted. So here it goes.
Walker - She is just crazy in it. She runs around this house and chases the dogs as soon as we put her in it. The cool thing is that she's getting stronger, so she is able to move much better on the carpeting. Because of that, we put the rugs back down on the hardwood tonight. She needs to get those legs moving!
Cruising - she's doing it much better. We put her up to the coffee table today a few times and she is getting much better at it. I'm just waiting now for her to pull herself up and just go.
Pulling up - she is trying to pull herself up more often now. I think since she started crawling, she's figuring out that she can "move". Uh oh! She has figured out that she can not pull up on her walker - it moves. :)
Balancing - oh my. I was holding her on the floor today and she stood completely on her own for at least 15 seconds. Just stood there - not wavering a bit. I grabbed on to her before she lost her balance because it made me nervous. Remember I'm a spaz.
I am sure it helped that she was completely focused on Baby Einstein. But amazing no matter what.

Super Lauren
Ok Lauren is wonderful. Tonight, Jim and I went to the neighborhood party. Initially we had taken Reagan, but Pam mentioned that her daughter was home and might be interested in sitting for us. I took Reagan home about 730 pm to feed her and called Lauren. Yep, she was interested.
She showed up, I told her where all the stuff was and she even said that she'd try to put her down. I thought for sure I was going to get a phone call from her at 930 pm saying she was having trouble.
We got home at 1000 pm and it was just Lauren in the living room. No Reagan. I was completely shocked and totally impressed. No only did she put her down, but she fed her, changed her into pjs and she was asleep. She didn't seem phased.
I really didn't know what to do with myself at all. I am so used to having to just take care of the night time routine, that I found myself without my own routine. What a break!
SUPER LAUREN!
