Quick Post

So, the house is finally ours. After what seemed like the most nightmarish closing we are finally home owners. I am collecting "before and after" pictures of the house- since we are having some construction done before we actually move in, and I will post those when they are ready.

To quickly recap other events....

Mother's day was wonderful. Nick made me Waffles and OJ for b-fast. Nick gave me a new tempurpedic pillow, and a gift certificate to the spa as gifts. Reagan gave me a copy of Dr. Laura's book "In Praise of the Stay at Home Mom"- I am pretty sure that Nick purchased the book for Reagan, but since she is such a technological genius maybe she procured it herself (seriously, the girl seems to know more quick keys on the computer than I do! And one of her favorite activities is to pound on the laptop.).

Here is Reagan looking cute while eating a dum dum pop.

Also, Reagan has had her two bottom teeth since she was 4 months old. I was beginning to wonder where the other teeth were (since she is nearly 10 months old, and we hadn't seen any new teeth). Then, the other night I looked in her mouth and she had two new teeth. Only they weren't the two top-center teeth... They are the two "Vampire" teeth! This ought to make for interesting pictures for the next little while. :)

Heather and I took the kids and met up with Jeanne and her kids at the Animal Barn and Thanksgiving Point. That place is great! Reagan loves animals and threw a giant temper tantrum every time we would leave one animal enclosure to go to the next. Literally, every time we went to a new animal pen Reagan would do everything she could to get inside with the animals.

Here she is happily enjoying a pony ride (she didn't have to wear a helmet on this one, Thank Goodness!)

Here she is with her favorite animal of the day: the baby cow. She was in love with the cow, and the cow was apparently in love with the way Reagan tasted. It kept trying to eat her. At one point I looked down and it had her entire foot in its mouth! I tried to take her away but she started to cry like it was the end of the world. I took her back to see the calf and she was happy as a clam just letting him munch on her, while she pulled its hair. Of course she got totally hosed/washed down after we left the barn.

You could tell that the kids had a fab time. Two seconds after we loaded them in the car to go home they both zonked!
