Raise your hand if you LOVE a donut!

I am a HUGE donut lover, and it just occurred to me the other morning that I hadn't shared this LOVE with Reagan- So, one morning before we had to pick Adam up at the airport, we drove over to the Krispy Kreme! It was delicious and she knew it was going to be good just by looking through the glass at the donuts when we first walked in!
Gotta love my sweet tooth daughter! ................... To all my Midland blogger "fans" Krispy Kreme sure is good, but DOESN'T TOUCH T&T!!!!!! I can't wait to get back for some T&T!!!

Reagan's favorite animal right now-

Owls are really "in" right now, if you haven't noticed, and now that I've pointed it out, you'll start seeing the kids clothes with owls.... but it's a good thing, since Reagan loves them so much! It's easy to find her things she will like!
We really don't know why this is a favorite animal in her eyes right now, but it is, and it's SUPER fun to "hoot" around the house! :)


How funny is this owl she made at school? She couldn't have made a more fitting art project for herself! She was really excited to put it up in her room with all her art work!

"Big Girl" room
























I figured with a Birthday and Christmas right around the corner, we really needed to evaluate our toys and clutter in the living room- SO we made a weekend out of transforming Reagan's room into a little girl room; We moved her changing table into the closet (assuming we wouldn't be using it much longer, seeing that we're in the potty training process), and we put up two of these cubby shelves against the wall (only one pictured)- and on the other side of her room we put a cute toy bench and moved her bookcase! She LOVES all the new movement, and now she notices ALL her toys better, so sometimes trying to get out of the house is a challenge, but I'm glad she likes it! And Adam and I like having our living room BACK! :) Gotta love having little kids!

Betcha' can't guess who this is?

A little HUNTER in progress

This is one of my FAVORITE pictures! Reagan and I sit out in the backyard and watch Adam shoot his bow- and now, I might add- I have a PINK bow to join him! I'm doing really good too! Reagan will have to get one for her 4th birthday or something to start hunting with us! LOL!
I never would have thought that I would become a hunter, much less a BOW HUNTER! Go Momma! - Bring on the couple hunting show!! :)

The Crooked House



Did anyone see the Jon and Kate Plus 8 episode when they made the kids, "Crooked Houses?"

Well, we found one, at Festival of the Trees at the Orlando Art Museum, and it was AWESOME! Reagan LOVED it, she ran in and out of it, closing the door, and opening it, saying "hi" "bye"- there was even a peep hole!
When it was time to go, we couldn't get her out, so I had to go in after her, thinking I'd be like Alice in Wonderland, squeezing into this little house, I got inside, and could stand completely up! I'm 5'8"!!! I couldn't believe it! I loved that thing and Reagan did too!!

Dear Santa,
We would like a Crooked House PLEASE- it's only $3000. :)

Love,
Reagan's Mommy

Meeting Santa!



Reagan was NOT a big fan of Santa last year! My Mom and I took her to the all, last year, and she SCREAMED her head off! She absolutely HATED him! I thought I'd start this year out right, by showing her a BARNEY video, "The Night Before Christmas"- She LOVES it when "Santa!!" (she screams his name) comes on the Barney movie!

On Sunday, we went to the Festival of the Trees at the Orlando Art Museum, this is where all these Christmas trees are decorated to sell- VERY neat!
We were walking around the corner into the children's area, and Reagan screams, "Santa!" (like she is doing as I type this, b/c she sees him in the picture!)
I knew she would be a little shy towards him, but she didn't CRY at ALL! Yay for my Big girl! She is so BIG! Santa was wonderful, he talked to her, and he helped her eat a candy cane! In this top picture she looks like she is telling him what she wants for Christmas! So Sweet! Maybe another trip before Christmas, to see if she isn't as shy!
Can you believe Christmas is almost here!?

Happy (late) Halloween!



I have MORE Halloween pictures for you guys, but I will have to upload more later!

Reagan LOVED her costume! She was a Pink Lady! (We actually were twins, b/c I have a Pink Ladies jacket from when I was Sandy in Grease at the Midland Community Theatre).

Her favorite part of the costume was.... believe it or not, the SUNGLASSES!!

Young LOVE.......


While I was cleaning up our hard-drive I came across these OLD pictures (September 2005) back from when Adam and I were dating! :) I Love to look back at how young we looked! :)
I can't believe we will have been married 4 years in December!
I LOVE you babe!!






Like Father.... Like Daughter.......


When I first met Adam, his roommate, Josh would ALWAYS complain of Adam's habit of leaving drawers open. He would leave all the cabinets in the kitchen open, the drawers with the silverware, his drawers to his dresser, well you get the picture- And I DID witness his act of NOT closing things, BUT ever since we've been married he never really did it much-

But now LOOK at what I found in REAGAN'S kitchen!!!! (this is a REAL picture!! She had EVERY door open!!) We have another "leaver of the doors open" AHH!!!! HAHA!

The funniest thing, is when I told Sally (Adam's Mom), and she told me that Alyson, (Reagan's Aunt) does this!!!! Oh, Boy! HAHA! SO FUNNY!!!

My favorite picture of Izzy and Baby Reagan

I know it's been a LONG time since I've blogged! Sorry to all my blogger followers! :) We've had a busy last month, and this November is flying by just as quickly! This morning I will try to update a few pics and maybe come back later to write more after we visit the petting farm visiting Reagan's School this morning! WOO HOO! You know how we love petting those crazy animals!

I had to blog this picture, because it is ONE OF MY FAVORITES of Reagan's lifetime!

We love you Izzy and can't wait to see all of you guys for Thanksgiving!
