Potty training

So far she is doing really well. I haven't felt real great due to Baby C wreaking havoc on my system, so I don't push her. But she's done great at school and once we get past dinner, she does well too. I'm hoping and praying that we are out of diapers by the time #2 shows up.

Crossing her arms

Over the last week, I've noticed that Reagan has started to cross her arms and tap her fingers when she's waiting on an answer from us. It's so cute. She'll say something like "you want to??" and then she'll cross her arms and look at you. Of course, she grins like a cheshire cat and wiggles her eye brows. I just wonder where she gets all her expressions.

First Tea Party

Tonight, Reagan had her first "tea party" in our playroom. She saw Elmo across the room and ran over to grab him. Then she gave him careful instructions on how to sit down and drink his tea. She then pulled up a chair next to him at the table and had a tea party. We got a pic on Jim's phone. I'll ost it soon.

13 weeks

Today I had my 13 week check up. I've lost two pounds - what the heck!!! The baby is just fine. I saw the heartbeat on the monitor - that was super cool. The doc gave me some advice on how to combat my morning sickness (or all day sickness) and told me to stay hydrated. Ugh! I go back in four more weeks and hopefully we can see if it's a boy or girl.

Horrific day

I have absolutely no idea what I ate yesterday, but I was sick from about 4pm on. I drug myself off the couch to get Reagan and drive to the store to meet Jim. I struggled to walk through the grocery store and it was all I could do to get home.

I didn't even eat. I tried a bite, but my stomach said "heck no dude". I puked multiple times in my mouth and didn't move much until Jim was ready to get Reagan in bed.

I crawled upstairs to "read books" (I laid down on the floor) and put her in bed. I did help, I laid next to her crib on the floor and held her hand. She likes that. After about a half an hour, I crawled back downstairs to the couch and fell asleep for the night. Ugh

Ahhhh, peace and quiet

Well, for the moment. We got done eating dinner and Jim went to the basement to do a quick workout. I figured that was a fair trade from yesterday when I couldn't get off the couch. So I told Reagan we were going to the basement to play. And she is - by herself. Wow.

She went into her playroom and closed the door. I am sitting out here on the computer listening to her read Dora books to herself. So I am totally enjoying the alone time. :)

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.
