dancing girl

Reagan likes to dance, by herself. Today, we went to the basement to play and hang out. She danced. She turned on her dj station and just started going. It was so fun to watch. I was actually amazed at how good she really was. She had nice placement of her hands - nice flow for her arms. She had expression. She amazed me.
Keeping in mind she is four, she was more than awesome! She was beautiful.

Seek and find

Reagan has gotten crazy good at these seek and fnd books. We had gotten her some kid ones and she just blasts through them. I bought her one that she actually has to read the words to figure out what to find. That frustrates her a bit. But, once she knows what to find, she can find most of them in seconds. It is just amazing to me.

Sick

She's had a sinus infection for a little while now.  We started the new round of antibiotics about a month ago. She is on her fourth round. The good news is that her ears are fine. Bad news is she seems to have a strain of bacteria that is extremely stubborn.
We have her on the strongest thing we can give her. Her doctor finally said, "we need to talk" about how to proceed with her. We've struggled for the last year with her health. At some point, we need to start looking deeper for potential underlying issues.
So I'm going to guess we will look at allergies and do a blood test to ensure her system can fight bugs correctly. I'm praying it's just allergies - how sad is that? Either way, she is responding to Bactrum. That is good. Just frustrating we have to go tot hat level.

My poor maddy.

What the heck?

Maddy can count to 10. That's all I have.

Swimming

Tonight, Reagan got to go into the big pool and do actual laps. I couldn't believe it. She is floating and kicking on her own and learning to push off the side of the pool. She was a little hesitant in the bigger pool. I think she was a tad afraid of the deep end, but she didn't seem to phased by it all. She did great!

She was so worn out by the end of her lesson, she went right to sleep. I was amazed.

Reagan's growth spurt

Reagan looks like she has shot up in the last few weeks. We've noticed that she's eating better during the day and also resting better too. Not only that, but her legs look longer. My little girl is getting so big on me. Sniff. I'm not ready for her to grow up yet.

Still sick

Maddy is still sick. Ugh. Fourth round of antibiotics. Going back to the ENT for a culture. So done with her being sick. :(
