Reagan's 8

Reagan's 8! I can't believe that I have an 8 year old- where does the time go? Well we started the day off with our traditional breakfast in bed, followed by meeting her at school for lunch, and then dinner with Dad at Red Robin!
                                        
                                         
She decided this year she wanted a rock n roll/ glow in the dark party! So we dressed up like punk rockers and played with glow in the dark stuff! She had a great time with all her friends. It was a little crazy but hey they are superstars so what do you expect!

The Moving Recap

After months and months of looking we finally bought a house! I have been so excited about it and getting settled in, I kind of let the blog go! Imagine that! Well I am going to do a real quick catch up!
Stella discovered dress ups and now can be found wearing them on a regular basis. 
Reagan also played basketball this season. She was a total natural at it and had a blast!
 The girls and I made a quick trip down to Las Vegas to see one of the dearest little friends get baptized! It was a super fun reunion. 

The sleepover that didn't last!

Emery's Baptism

Rea and her Em making some cookies!

While I was down in Las Vegas, unfortunately my Dad had a heart attack so I raced home so I could get out to TN. He is doing amazing and we are so grateful for his amazing recover. The one good thing about going was I able to see this cute girl. I can't believe Dana had never painted her nails! I remedied that quickly. Jillian just kept staring at her fingers! It was pretty dang cute!


We have had a lot of fun nights in the hot tub. 



Reagan did a school performance where she was a starfish!

Oh and we also built a fire pit!

That is the last couple of months is a picture review!

Stella is 2!!!!


Stella is 2!!!! I can't believe that,  the time truly does goes by so quick. We sure love this little girl!We were up in Oregon after Christmas, and were luckily enough to celebrate with Nick's family, minus Nick :) I forgot my camera so these are all off my phone! Here are some of her enjoying her cupcake!





Some info about Stella at 2:
She weighs about 22 pounds. 
She loves Mickey Mouse and her blanket. 
She is all around a happy easy going girl. 
She doesn't talk to much but can say- Mama, Dada, Ree Ree, Ali, doggie, cookie, peese(please), thank-you, cheese, go, two, eye, color, new news (noodles) and of course...No. She still won't say her own name!!!!
She loves music and loves to dance. 
She loves to play with legos and anything outside. 
Her favorite food is noodles and loves her milk. 
We love her so much!

We had a great time in Oregon! We were able to go to one of Heather's basketball games.


Play and just relax. 


 We went up to Eugene for a quick visit to see Nick's grandma. We stopped by the school to try and take a picture for Nick's office. I stand by previous statement that getting them to take a picture is like herding wild cattle.


Merry Christmas

I love Christmas! I love everything about it, and this year was no different. Since we are still in a rental I haven't really unpacked, but we did put up our Christmas decorations which were a nice change of scenery. The girls were really into getting each other gifts this year, so all the way up to Christmas they were doing extra chores to earn money to buy gifts. It was pretty cute. We had a great Christmas Sunday, and I really really tried to get picture of the girls in their matching outfits, but this is the best we could come up with. It really is like wrangling wild cattle.
All this one wanted to do was stand on that. 
This is how she felt by the end.
We also went and saw Santa. Stella every time she had seen a picture of Santa, or saw him on TV would say Ho Ho Ho. So I thought she would be excited. I will let the picture speak for itself. 


Then Christmas Morning! The girls were so excited. Reagan woke up at 6, and was dying to wake up Alice who slept in til 6:45! 
The annual stairs picture.
Stella was pretty excited.

Reagan has been asking for American Girls doll for 2 years. Her dreams finally came true! 

Alice however was much easier and cheaper. If you asked what she wanted her answer was always the same, 500 packs of chocolate chips and big fluffy marshmallows. Getting her to tell me she wanted something else was nearly impossible. Until she decided she wanted a bow and arrow. Love that girl!
Stella loves Mickey Mouse so she was pretty easy. 
Some of the aftermath!


When I went to check on Alice that night. It was hard opening all those presents. 

We had a great Christmas and wish we could have spent it will all of you guys. Hope everyone had a Merry Christmas!
