Ei-Ei-O

For playgroup today we went to this cool farm. I know a Farm in Las Vegas!!! Reagan at first was a little nervous, but then she was loving it. They had goats just running around, horses, chickens, and ducks.

Here is Reagan at first, see the fear in her face.

Then she loved it and just ran around saying Hi duck Hi duck, Hi horse Hi horse. She fed them carrots, apples and crackers, and had a great time!



She was so excited to feed them.


Of course Alice was doing her usual. How can you not love this girl!


Oh yeah I forgot the best sign ever. They had tons of decorations and stuff, but I really think this was the best!

Jem and The Holograms

Reagan was going to be Jem from Jem and the Holograms, but then I had a lot of people look at me like who is that. So we decided that she would be a punk rocker for our church Halloween Party. I still think she is going to be Jem for Halloween, so for those of you who don't know who Jem is go here.
We had a great time at the party. Here are some pictures from it. Reagan was really cute and had a great time. Her hair isn't sprayed very even, b/c she freaked out at first, but then was ok with it.

Here she is doing the donut game.



Then there was bobbing for apples. She really liked it, but I think she was just putting her face in the water and drinking it.

After she finally got it.

There was a cool pinata.


What is Halloween Party without frosting some cupcakes?!?!

Alice of course was a little angel. (This is what she was supposed to look like at the pumpkin patch)

New Outfit

One reason girls are pretty fun. Thanks Grandma and Heather for the cute new outfit. Reagan loves it!

Alice's First Food and Pumpkins!

I finally decided not to be lazy anymore and we got out the rice cereal and let Alice have some. She actually did pretty good and ate quite a bit. Reagan never really did get too into it, so I was surprised how much she liked it!

Reagan of course wanted to help feed her.

And then she had to show us that she could eat too.

Then for Family Home Evening we decided to get a pumpkin and carve it. Reagan got to pick it out herself and was very proud of her pumpkin.
Here she is looking for some good guts.

She was excited because she picked out all of the shaped for the eyes and nose.

Alice was pretty mesmerized by the pumpkin too.

Then this morning we were planning on going to the pumpkin patch. It was a disaster from the get-go. I had everything planned out . . . maybe that is where I went wrong.

I had bought a Halloween shirt for Alice to wear and made a matching headband and bow . I also made Reagan a Halloween shirt with this cute iron-on pumpkin logo and a matching Halloween bow. I was so excited that they were going to be matching, cute, and festive for their pictures.

We were a little slow getting going this morning since I was at the Fabulous Friday all night and by the time I finally got Reagan dressed, I realized the shirt I bought Alice was much too big.

So, I got out of storage the Halloween shirt Reagan wore for her first Halloween and put it on Alice. By this time, it was almost 12:00 p.m., everyone was getting hungry, we were supposed to be already done with the pumpkin patch and back home.

I went to grab Reagan who was crouched in the corner crying because she did not want to get her hair done. After I finally I pinned her down and pulled her hair in a pony tail, I told Nick to go put Alice in the car seat and I would get Reagan. When Nick picked up Alice, we saw that she had pooped through her diaper and it was all on her pumpkin onesie.

I was so mad, because that was the last pumpkin outfit I had. I turned around after changing Alice and Reagan had pulled half the pumpkin applique off her shirt and was saying "No Want Pumpkin, No Want Pumpkin."

I could have killed her. So Reagan has half a torn pumpkin on her shirt, Alice has poop all over her and of course I just start to cry. I told Nick I didn't even want to go but he said we were going. So begrudgingly I went and Reagan wore her WT Dora shirt (yeah it lights up) and Alice was in a onesie. So they were supposed to look all cute and festive like this.

Instead she looked like this.


Cute just not festive. I would take a picture of the torn shirt but it might make me cry. So all of you who have cute festive pumpkin patch pictures, I am officially jealous and I hate you!

Hair Drama

That is what Reagan gives me every time I try to do her hair-Drama. Especially if I break out the comb! I am in charge of the bow-making part of our Fabulous Friday at church and so I have a ton of clips laying around the house. Of course, she brought them all over to me and sat nice and still saying more mom more mom, and kept handing me more and more clips. This was the outcome.

Finally out of her face.

I tried to show her the clips with flowers are the same but of course she didn't want those. And yes we did go to the store with them in. Partly because she didn't want to take them out, and partly because it was out of her eyes!
In Alice news:
Alice might me the smilest baby I have ever seen. Here are just a couple I snapped today.

Question

As some of you may know I am starting a small business. It is called Kookles. Right now I just have nursing covers, and I am going to be getting some headbands soon, and hopefully in the future some blankets and stuff. Anyway I am working on my webpage/blog, and I wanted your opinion on the page. Do you like webpages that have music? Sometimes I like it but sometimes I think it is annoying. So if you can please leave your opinion! Thanks!

5 Months and Other Random Stuff

Alice is 5 months today. I can't believe it. Here is what she is enjoying doing:

She loves to be entertained by Reagan.
She likes her dog.
She likes to roll around on the floor.
She is trying to crawl.
She loves to spit up on you.
She likes to sleep at night (mom's favorite)
She still hates her car seat :)
We don't know if she likes rice cereal yet b/c I am too lazy to give her any :)
She is a super smiley and she loves to laugh. Here is a tiny clip of her laughing, I can usually get her to laugh a little more.

As for Reagan she is doing great! She has mixed feelings about her dance class. This was her last solo. Sorry it is a little shaky, I was laughing too hard. She did better half way through the class. I can't believe how big she is getting either. I have been waiting to be able to put her in a nightgown. I don't know why I have been so excited for it. But I think she is so cute in it. I found this at Ross and couldn't resist. Mind you these are morning pictures. She wouldn't really pose for me those these are the best we have! Mom this first one is for you. It is her doing her yoga, or as she says it her oga
