Look Who's Eating Now

Reagan turned 6months on Friday. It is so hard to believe she is already 6months old-she truly is a blessing. For her big 6month checkup her Pediatrician said she was ready to be introduced to some food. So far we have tried Bananas and Peas, i think the Peas are actually her favorite. I was so proud of how well she learned the skill of eating she ate her bananas like a pro. After she ate most of her bananas it was time for her to have her bottle. She is getting so Big before we know it we will be celebrating her first birthday. Life is Grand!

GEAUX TIGERS

Reagan experienced her first LSU tailgate in Baton Rouge over the weekend. Unfortunately the Tigers did not pull out a WIN but it was an amazing Game. Matt and Heston went to the game but Aunt Ashley, Reagan, and I left after tailgating to have a girls afternoon. We love these two so much and are excited we were able to spend some time with the both of them. I do have to mention that FSU is ranked higher than LSU at the current time. Our house is divided and I had to take the time to mention that the NOLES did experience a Win!!!!!!! Just kidding Babe you know I love the Tigers too.

Family Times

We went to Baton Rouge last weekend to visit family and friends. Matt was born and raised in Baton Rouge and we went to visit his family. We had a great time and were so proud to introduce Reagan to her grandparents, great-grandparents, Aunt, and her cousins. The only one missing was his brother Wes who is serving our country, we miss you WES and are so proud of you! This was Reagan's first time flying and she did amazing. She also started a new sound while we were there, she makes bubbles and would get so tickeled everytime she made the noise. She is growing so much everyday and I hope we will be able to make the trip up again very soon.

Maci Katherine Young

Maci Katherine Young arrived on October 29th weighing in at 6lbs 3ounces. Maci is the daughter of my dearest friend Ashley. Ashley's water broke at 2:15am and at 3:49pm Maci arrived. Ashley and Joe both did an amazing job, they're going to be amazing parents. I'm so excited to watch the friendship between Reagan and Maci blossom, I know that they will feel more like sisters than friends. I know many family memories will be made with the Young family and I look forward to every single one of them. Congratulations Ashley and Joe!!!!!!!!

Carving the Pumpkin!

We carved our first pumpkin with Reagan on Saturday and had a blast. Matt did such a great job; I think he would win First Place in a Pumpkin Carving Contest! Reagan played in her bouncer while watching us carve the pumpkin. She was not to sure what we were doing but had a great time watching us. Her smile will melt your heart and her laughter brightens your day. The weather was beautiful, football was on, and we enjoyed a perfect fall evening.

Pumpkin Patch

Reagan went to her first Pumpkin Patch today and she sure had a good time. She picked out the biggest pumpkin for us to carve. I guess she knows she'll be watching Mom and Dad struggle and that delights her! She loved being outside today in the beautiful weather we're having and even fell fast to sleep on the way home. Picking out pumpkins can be exhausting. I know we'll have many more days like this in the coming years but today was one of the greatest days. Just being out and about with my family sure made me appreciate all the many blessing I have.

Mom's Retirement

After 32 years of teaching my mom retired to watch Reagan. It has been such a blessing having Mom's help and support. I had a surprise Retirement party for her on Saturday at the Magnolia Tea Room in Auburndale. It was a small gathering-Laura, Meylin, and Susan from the "POD" came, as well as, Mama and Aunt Sharon. Uncle Raymond even came in for a surprise visit. Chyanne Laura's beautiful granddaughter was there and she was such a big help with Reagan. We had a great time honoring Mom and it was so awesome to see the shock on her face when she arrived.
