Happy Halloween

From our little pumpkin

and would-be witch, who won’t actually wear her costume

Little Photog

Reagan is becoming quite the photographer and is figuring out the camera and how to take actual pictures, which is much improved from just pointing at random things and getting her finger in the way.

A good one in the mix

Practicing the oh-so-important self-portrait

And, one night, while Tim was making dinner, she had the camera, but we didn’t realize she was taking videos until the end – as you can hear. A little bit of Reagan’s view of the world…

3 Months

I can’t believe this little peanut is 3 months old already. She’s quick to smile, adores her big sister, really enjoys a bath or shower, and loves to be held and cuddled. She pulls up to sitting when you hold her hands and usually likes tummy time. She loves loves loves when you just sit and talk to her and she is happy to have a conversation any time.

Frequently, when I think about her during the day, I am reminded of the line from Finding Nemo (we watch it a lot) when Dory sees the baby jellyfish and says, “I shall call him Squishy and he shall be mine and he shall be my Squishy.” And that makes me smile.

Pinkalicious

One of the great (and sometimes not so great) things about commuting on transit with Reagan is that we get to spend so much time together.

When I dropped her off this morning, one of her teachers commented about how much pink Reagan had on – her new winter hat, her vest, her pants and her socks were all or mostly pink. She spent most of the day in her (not pink) short sleeved shirt, but by the time I picked her up, that was dirty and changed into something new.

Since she had her sweatshirt on and I never know what is in her change of clothes box, I asked her which new shirt she was wearing. She half-heartily showed me her shirt, but then announced, “I’m pinkalicious!”

And, yes, she got some outright laughs from those sitting near us on the bus.
