Family Fun for All

 Reagan was born in breech position.  Apparently those who are born in breech position have a higher chance of developing hip dysplasia. We took Reagan to Scottish Rite Hospital at one month old and then we were scheduled to bring her back after she began walking.   
 Thankfully we only have been there two times, but both times we enjoyed the people, volunteers, and the kid friendly atmosphere.  Grant found the large display of trains.
 Reagan was such a trooper while we were waiting.
 Having a bottle handy doesn't hurt either.
 She is such a Daddy's girl.
We ended up with the doctor telling us she is perfect and we didn't need to come back.
Yeah!  That was easy!  
Then we left with our free popcorn.
It was such a pretty spring day outside, we decided to go to the zoo.
 My daughter is bare foot in every picture because she takes off her shoes and socks whenever we put them on her.  Then she usually chews on those socks until they are a sopping mess (not sure how that tastes good!)
 Gorillas don't like socks, just veggies.





 She's getting used to wearing the pig tails.  So cute!



 Grant got to feed these birds nectar.

 I loved holding them.  They were so beautiful!


 Apparently they were fond of me as well!


 Check out that tongue!






Reagan's first merry go round ride.



 Last stop, Costco!  Items in bulk, extra large carts, and cheap churros and ice cream!  Fun for all!
 Reagan was just excited to get her Veggie Sticks which she LOVES.

Spring Break and 'March'ing on

Beauty in the Common Things:  Memories.  I was going to stop my blog all together.  The app I've been using from my phone doesn't work many times and I never even really get on my home computer anymore.  However, when I started prepping my blog to be printed into a book, I realized I put plenty of memories in here and I enjoyed looking back on them.  So even if no one reads this but me, I guess its worth it.

Listen In:  Daniel is eating dinner (at 9:00 at night), Grant is on Facetime with his grandparents, and Reagan has been asleep after a long day of fun.

View from the Kitchen Window:  a freshly mowed lawn, courtesy of my hard working husband.

The weather during Spring Break was great, but then turned very cold.  Grant's friend came over early in the week and we headed to the park.

 Reagan was designated "The Sheriff" and I was the "Deputy".  The boys were "The Outlaws".  Reagan and I collected acorns to use as hand grenades. 
 Later in the week, we went to Fossil Rim Wildlife Park.  Reagan enjoyed being able to cruise around in the front seat.

 The giraffes were out and roaming.  All the other animals must have been stuffed from all the visitors during the busy Spring Break.  We didn't get to feed as many animals as we normally do.
Reagan was such a good girl, enjoying the ride!

Daniel and Grant enjoyed making rice krispie treats during Spring Break as well.
At the end of March, the weather got better and we have been taking advantage of it.

Pretty weather still doesn't get rid of a case of "The Mondays"

 

 We all wore purple one day to support our favorite team, SFA.  They were doing so well during March Madness!

Whats happening…

Let's see what's been happening according to my iPhone camera album…

Oh yes I had some nice dental work done. This sight of me was scary!

I met a student who sprinkles Kool Aid on his pickle. Biggest laugh in a long time!

Reagan loves dinner time. She doesn't eat much for breakfast or lunch and then binge eats. Here she is covered in broccoli.

Daniel's family came in for one of Grant's basketball games. We had an extra large cheering section that day.


Some took advantage of AT&T sales and got new iPhones. It was a quiet afternoon haha.

Reagan loves watching the dogs from this spot.

Or she sits in her Hello Kitty chair.

Grant and Vivian have had a few play dates lately, they seriously act like brother and sister.

On my birthday, I narrowly escaped having strep for the 3rd year in a row and had fun with my ladies at Painting with a Twist.
We made this art work. Loved it!

Love these ladies!

Reagan finally met our school mascot. She was not sure of him at all!

We saw "The Lego Movie" and Grant was inspired. Daniel and Grant finally finished this Lego Ninjago project.

More to come, Spring Break is around the corner!
