Three

Reagan turns 3 tomorrow! We have a busy day scheduled, so I wanted to post today about the delight that she has been in our lives!

-She has an infectious smile and is now saying "I love you" to us daily.
-She is pretty much pooping and pottying in the toilet full-time!
-She is a social girl and enjoys making friends.
-Just like dad, she adores Dumbo and is very concerned when Dumbo's mommy gets locked up (even though she has seen the ending 50 times)
-She also adores Mickey, Princesses, Oso, Einsteins, anything Disney-oriented.
-She likes to go to the mall and knows exactly where the "Mickey store" is. She could spend hours in there.
-She loves her brother and is the first to greet him in the morning.
-We still heat her milk up for her to drink.
-She can't wait to go to primary and talks about it all the time.
-She loves to sing and that is how she puts herself to sleep every night.
-She loves to play at the park.
-Although she is a fickle eater, her favorite food is pizza.
-Her favorite color is pink.
-She dresses herself these days and usually does not match.
-She is starting to warm up to the idea of water and swimming pools.
-She likes bubbles in her bath.

We sure do love her and she makes us laugh and smile every single day. I had a great time sifting through pictures of her and it brought back many memories of raising her these last 3 years. She has brought me so much joy as a mom. Enjoy!
June 18th was her due date (pictured above), but she didn't arrive until a few days later! She was 8 lbs, 1 oz.























Annual Sistas Trip plus my Momma

My two younger sisters and my mom made the 12 hour drive (all at once) out here to see us. My sister is also 6 months pregnant, so it was a sacrifice and we love them all the more for it. It was a great trip, we packed much in the 4 days they were here. Here are some pics of the trip.

Eating Chocolate Malted Krunch from Thrifty's.
Since I will probably miss Lindsey's baby shower, I gave her her gifts early...the hooter hider and also a bow hanger made from a huge gerber daisy. Lindsey is a girly girl so I know that her little girl will be dolled up with the fancy shmancy bows!

Matt lived up to his expectation as Master Teaser and Loni was his target the day we went to ritzy (snooty) downtown Walnut Creek. He didn't think her outfit matched. Don't worry Lonster, my clothing gets critiqued as well :) Just ask Matt about the day I wore a pink polo with gray pants. He was so embarassed.
My mom and I have the same feet and shoes.
Sweet Nolan bubs.
The two "hoes." You can take the girl outta California, but not the California out of the girl. That about sums them up.

They took the kids to the Oakland Zoo while Matt and I attended the temple. It worked out great.
We ate Boudins clam chowder and sourdough bread bowl twice!
We toured Jelly Belly, it was unfortunately during shutdown, so no beans were being made.

We went to the park where Lindsey got a video of Nolan laughing his head off, see it HERE. It is worth a viewing.
Even though it was the cloudiest day of the trip and Lindsey couldn't ride any rides, we did go to Waterworld.We had a good time!

Matt and Lonsters on the Half-Pipe.
Lonsters and I coming out of the Tornado, my favorite water slide ride to date.


We had a good time and can't wait to see everyone again soon!
