Getting X-rays

Had to pick up Maddy today to take her of X-rays. She still has a horrible cough. I'm seriously getting tired of her being sick. I don't know why they won't just give her the right medication. One doctor says its not allergies. Meds don't work. They change their mind and say that it is allergies. I give up. Ugh!

Going to Rocktoberfest

Jim took Reagan to Rocktoberfest today. They got to ride rides and play games. They seemed to have a great time together. Reagan won a few games which meant prizes. She wanted to bring home something for Maddy. She won her a plastic Dora doll. How cute. Maddy loved it. Reagan was proud!

Park!!!

Maddy loves to go to the park. Any time we go for the car, she tells us she's ready to go to the park. It cracks me up. She says "paa-aaarrrrrrk"! She doesn't care how call it is either, she just wants to get out there and play. She can navigate most of the stuff by herself. She is a bit of a dare devil so I have to be careful not to turn my head away too much or she might jump off the top or something crazy like that.

She has almost walked down the tallest slide a few times. I have to tell her "NO" as loud as I can. She just giggles at me. Geez.

ABC song

She's actually got the whole song down...

Potty

We are still not real great on the whole potty thing. She'll go for days without an accident, and then she'll have days where she'll have multiple at a time. Ugh. So hard. I'll be glad when she gets it figured out.

Yellow Belt

She graduated tonight to yellow belt. It's just an awesome thing. Sensei invited her to come into the bigger kid class to get her new belt. It was fun to watch. She kept looking at all the other bigger people (kids and adults) - just looking. I wondered what was going through her head. But she kept up. She did really well. Mimi & Papa were able to make it for the graduation.

She was able to get her belt off and walk over it. She turned around at first and we all giggled because she was supposed to be facing all the Senseis. It was cute. She got turned around the right way and went through the graduation. She was so happy to have the belt tied on. I was so proud. :) Jim was on the floor with her when she got it. I'm sure he was proud as well.

Playing Montesorri

Reagan played Montessori tonight. I guess that means that she is finally getting into the swing of things at school and is accepting things a bit more. It kinda sounds like she's been assimilated... maybe she has. But I think she's a much happier kid overall. She has far less tantrums, is easier to work with and honestly seems more creative. I love watching her grow up.
