Video games already?

Reagan has quickly learned how to play the new Kinect games on the XBOX 360 console. With the wave of your hand, you move through menus. She has conquered that skill pretty well. She's also pretty good at the Adventure games, especially the Water rafting and the kickball type game. Tonight, she actually got a silver in a game that some adults struggle to get a bronze in. Why? because she just plays. She doesn't really try to win or do what she's supposed to. She flails her body in all types of ways that ends up connecting with the balls. So she wins. Way too cool.

Mvoing up to 6 ounces

Tonight Maddy moved up to 6 ounces of formula in a feeding. In the mornings, she still does ok on ounces (plus me), but tonight she was super hungry. My little baby is growing... sniff sniff

No Mas?

Today I asked Reagan if she wanted "any more...". She said "no mas mama"

Wow

Maddy lights up

Maddy lights up so much when I start to play with her. She doesn't find too much amusement in things as much as she does your face. I put her in her swing to get a little break and she watched, but didn't start kicking until I sat next to her. It was too cute.

ET again?

Tonight we put Reagan in bed and realized how many stuffed animals she has on her bed... a LOT! She crawled into bed and wanted all the new ones she had gotten for her birthday and Christmas. We piled them up all around her and she snuggled into the pile.

We walked out of her room and turned around to say good night and couldn't see her at all. She was mixed in so well that I felt like we were watching ET again. :)

Happy baby

Maddy is so happy. She has been the easiest baby so far. She doesn't cry much - unless she's hungry. She'll fuss a tad when she's tired, but that is about it.

She loves to laugh. All you have to do is make popping sounds or coo with her and she will start to laugh and smile. She also has started to watch Reagan when she's playing. It's so obvious because Reagan is the one bouncing around and her eyes will track to her movements. So cute.

Children of routine

My girls or children of routine. Once their routines get off a bit, they really don't do well. Maddy has not been in a routine since right before Christmas and I can tell. She has been off schedule with her eating and sleeping. Instead of sleeping at 9:30 pm, she's been up til 11:00 pm. Ugh. That is so hard to handle when I've been used to her going to bed at a decent time.
