Forgot 1 thing!

I forgot to mention 1 thing! For those who don't know, I have put my notice in at Kinko's. I will be going back to work for PSK on January 5th. I am really excited. I am also going to go back to school. I had my appointment with my academic advisor yesterday and I learned that I only have 9 more classes left!! I was hoping it was between 10-12, but I really couldn't remember. I am so excited I can't hardly stand it!! I know it will be busy next semester, but it will be worth it when I am done.

Dr Appointments and Sunday

The girls had their 2 and 3 year old check up last Friday. They were healthy and everything was good. Rylie didn't have to get any shots and Reagan only had 1 due. Thankgoodness!! The real reason I am writing about this because of how they ranked on the charts. It is just really funny to me.

Rylie - 65% in Height
85% in Weight
She is eating like a horse, so we think those will even out in the next couple of weeks. She is normally pretty even and right at 85% in height too.

Reagan - 50% in Weight
10% in Height!!
After the dr saw that, she asked me, is she short or did we measure wrong? It was really funny. We have been wondering if Reagan was short or not. It is kind of hard to tell because Rylie is so tall. The girls are only a year apart, but they don't look it!! You would think I would be lucky enough for Reagan to be able to wear Rylie's clothes from the year before, but no!! The clothes are too big!! Reagan is in 2T pants. Rylie wore 18 months at a year and 3T at 2 years. Oh well, I think to dress them the same anyways.


We had a really busy day on Sunday. We did Reagan's baby dedication that morning. I know, she isn't a baby!! The last church we were at only did them once a year and we were out of town!! We started visiting churches about 3-4 months ago looking for a more active sunday school class. We found that class at First Baptist Mansfield. We know a few of the couples from the church I grew up in and one of the couples is Robyn's younger brother. Wierd how things work out sometimes! Anyways, so we were late, but it is important to us to take the moment to dedicate ourselves to raise Reagan in a godly manner. We didn't bring a camera, but hopefully I can find someone who did and post a picture!! She did really good. I was proud!


That afternoon we went to a baby shower for Tiffany (use to be Watts). She is due in January. It was really good to see her and her sisters and mom again. It had been a little while. I took Rylie with me. She wanted to go to the baby party with all the other girls! Shelly's little girl Emily was there. She turns 4 in January so they had a lot of fun. Rylie and Emily actually ended up showing up in the same dress, it was really funny!! Here is a picture:

Pictures

We went to Sears on Sunday night to get the girls pictures taken. They turned out pretty good I think. We had a rocky start, Reagan didn't want to have any pictures taken. Rylie on the other hand, after we left said she wants to have her picture taken every day!!

We bought all CD and the rights to the picture, but know I can't get them to load to the sears website to send you a link, so I just uploaded them all here. Hope you enjoy!!
















Now, I hope that nobody thinks we are mean for the next two pictures, but Reagan is a mess!! I think the pictures are evidence enough!! Rylie is my rule follower and well, Reagan, isn't!! She is ornery, but comes by it honestly. Something about those 2nd born I guess.
















Disney on Ice!!

Our girls love Mickey Mouse Clubhouse and anything that has to do with Princesses. We took them to Disney on Ice this past Saturday and they loved it! Rylie was really into show and loved the whole thing. Reagan loved parts of, but didn't get into it quite as much as Rylie. We told the girls we were going to Mickey's clubhouse and they were talking about it for days before.

When we got there (30 minutes early!!) Reagan kept saying, Mickey where are you?, Donald where are you? and through the list. We had a chance to buy tickets before they went on sale, and so we were able to get front row seats on the ice. I was a little worried that it might scare the girls, but they did great. At the end Reagan even got to give Baloo (From jungle book) and one of the Monkeys a high five. She talked about that rest of the night. Cinderella blew Rylie a kiss as she was riding by in the carriage. I thought Rylie was going to pass out. Her jaw dropped and she tried to blow a kiss back, but she just froze!!

The one thing we didn't realize was the it was featuring The Incredibles. Friday night they came on NBC and we happened to watch - good thing!!
Here are a few pictures. It was pretty dark during a lot of the show, so not all my pictures turned out great.






This is Mickey and Minnie in Jail, the were captured during part of the show.


Then they were put into lazer jails. This was right in front of us. I didn't zoom in at all during this shot. Reagan didn't watch take her eyes off of Mickey until he was out. I couldn't figure out if she was just in ahh or worried.
Fronone came later to help them out. The girls liked him because a lot of smoke and stuff followed. He to me tooked the most like his character on the movie.

And finally the are free!!



Here is Donald. I am not zoomed in on this one either!! It was really funny, at the beginning they introduced all the characters. Reagan turned to me and asked, where is Daisy?? I just laughed. With all the excited and everything else going on, she noticed Daisy wasn't there. I told her she might be sick.


Rylie is already asking to go back. A different Disney on Ice featuring Little Mermaid and Cars comes in March. Tickets go on sale in February and we hope we can that show too.
