6 Months Old!

Miss Reagan turned 6 months old yesterday (5/24)! I can't believe how fast the last 6 months has gone...

She had a doctor's appointment on Thursday last week and weighed in at 16 lbs 13 oz. And, she's 26 inches long! Such a big girl! We did find out that she had an ear infection which delayed a couple of her 6 month vaccinations, but that's OK by me. We'll go back on Friday for a re-check and for the immunizations. Until then, however, we're giving Reagan some citrus flavored antibiotic that she really hates. Fun stuff.

She's sitting up and really studying everything around her. She's a great eater (they call her "the little bird" at daycare) and seems to like just about everything that we give her...with the exception of green beans. Not quite sure how to get her to like those, but we're working on it.

Sleepy time for Miss Reagan

I took this about a week or so ago, but thought it was fitting precursor to my "Quiet Time" post. She's such an angel!

Quiet Time...

So it's about 8:45 now as I write this...the baby has been asleep now for a little over an hour and James and I are just sitting here watching TV. It's nice to share a few minutes with eachother at the end of the day...funny how we are adjusting to that as new parents!

Anyway, here's hoping that this blog is a success and that I can manage to keep it up! Our lives are (slightly) crazy these days with Reagan (who will be 6 months old on 5/24!) and finishing up the kitchen (for those of you who don't know, we started the kitchen remodel in January...it's supposed to be finished by the end of the month...we'll update on that later), among other things, too. But maybe, just maybe, this will prove to be the writing space that I've been looking for lately. Here's hoping!

Oh, and any thoughts on topics for discussion would be helpful as I get this thing geared up!

First Post!

Ok, so if you got here and were expecting to see some huge "to-do" ... sorry. I'm totally new at this blog thing and I'm going to try to get some pictures up soon. Please bear with me as I fumble my way through!
