Birthday day

Well yesterday was my birthday. To make sure I had a day of peace and quiet, I scheduled a full body massage, facial and pedicure. I also asked Jim to meet me for brunch. I had to make sure some part of the day was about me on my birthday. As crappy as that sounds, that was the only way to guarantee I got peace and quiet on my birthday.

It worked. :)

By the time I got done with my facial, I was really relaxed. After that I had my pedicure. I about fell asleep in the chair while the lady was rubbing my calves. Ahhhh.

After that, it was the standard birthday stuff. Dinner and decorations. I did get a cool present - Jim got me an iPod touch. Now I just have to figure it out.

All in all, 40 went quietly.

Fishy face

TOnight, Reagan was trying to make the "fishy face" with her lips. So I knelt down beside her and did it myself. She pushed me away and said "mommy, get away from my fishy face". How silly.

Root Canal

Ug - today I had a root canal. It really made me nervous, but I trust my dentist. I said a prayer before they started working and before they took an xray. I have to trust that Baby C will be fine. ;)

At least I'll be out of pain.

Happy Easter

Happy Easter! Today was an awesome day!

Mom and I got up early and headed to church to sing and play for both services. We left Jim and Dad home to take care of Reagan and get to church by the second service. Jim wore a tie to church.

Reagan was so funny. We picked her up from her class and she walked out saying Happy Easter to everyone she ran into. The other good news - she actually asked to go potty a couple times. The teacher said she even tried to coax another little girl to try even though she was clearly still in diapers. So sweet. :)

We got home and had our own little egg hunt. She was hilarious. Jim and filled the eggs with jelly beans and chocolate. She went crazy. Every time she found an egg, she screamed and shook the eggs saying "there's jelly beans in there"!

It took her a while, but she found her basket too. That just had a few stuffed toys, but she was just as excited.

Right now she's in bed, but she is babbling away. I think she had WAY too much candy today. We'll see how long it takes her to drop off to sleep. At least she's happy and singing church songs. :) Love that!

Easter Eggs and More

Today we took Reagan on her first Easter Egg hunt at our church. We got there at 12:30 pm and watched a magic show. It was really cute. She didn't get into that as much, but she did enjoy the music. She played quietly in the sanctuary with us while we watched the show. After the show, we grabbed a bag and went with a bunch of other kids to look for eggs.

The church did a fantastic job of organizing it. They kids had a TON of eggs to look for and most of the kids were nice. All the parents kept track of the kids well. It was a nice experience.

Reagan had a blast looking for eggs. She really got a kick out of looking for them. We collected fourteen and then went to claim her prize - a goody bag.

On the way out the door, she giggled. We went home with chocolate in hand and an awesome experience. I hope they do this again next year.

Potty Training in full swing

Yea team. She stays dry all day at school. We struggle at home, but that's ok. At least she's doing it most of the time.

I'm showing

No more snug clothes. Ugh. Week 11.
