Reese Loves Broccoli!!

At Reese's 9 month check up Dr. Gondol said she could start eating more "real" foods. So yesterday I bought some some food she could start eating. She loved the broccoli!!

Ryleigh Being Her Cute Self!

Bath Time with Reese

Monday while Ryleigh was at gymnastics I let Reese take a bath with out her tub seat. She had so much fun splashing and crawling around the tub. This little girl LOVES her baths! I can't wait to take her to the pool this summer.

Reese is 9 Months Old!!

Reese-y I can't believe it's already been nine months!! Today you started the day off at Dr. Gondol's for your 9 month check up. You got your second dose of your flu shoot and your toe pricked to check if you are anemic (which you're not). I hate seeing you get shots they are so painful for you. After your check up you went to school.

You love clapping your hands! It was hard getting a picture of you because you were either clapping or moving all over the place. You'll be mobile soon!!

You love going to school! You recently moved up to the next class with the crawlers. You're trying to get it down but fall after two strides. You'll get down soon. You get so excited in the mornings getting ready to go to school.

You're always happy and smiling! People notice it and say what a happy baby your are and how lucky we are.

You're talking/babbling all the time! You said "Da Da" once and "Bye Bye" the other day but only say it when you want to. I have a feeling you'll be talking non stop soon just like your big sister!

You can stand up as long as you're leaning on something.
You love petting Snowball. While trying to get pictures of you, you started going for the cat!

You are:

-wearing size 4 diapers
-wearing size 9-12 month clothes

- eating 3oz of breast milk mixed with 3oz of formula
- eating 3rds baby foods, baby yogurt and beginning to start trying other foods

Now you have 7 teeth!

Now that you're almost one you can start eating more table foods and we will be weaning you off the bottle!

You're check up went great! Dr. Gondol said you're growing and developing well.

Here are your stats from the visit:

Height: 27 1/2 inches 49%

Weight: 19 lbs 11 oz 67%

Head: 45 1/2 cm 88%

Reagan Kelly Turns ONE!

Sunday, January 20 Reagan Kelly Ryal turned ONE!! This is my cousin's little girl. It was Owl themed. Look WHOOO's turning one!

Super cute cake!

Here she is trying her cake. She took a few bites then Ryleigh ate some too! Silly girl, she didn't want chocolate cake.

Here's Reese and Aunt Cecile AKA Aunt Silly

Four Generations picture with Great-Grammy, Gramz and my girls.

Here's Reagan and Reese sitting in Ryleigh's lap.

January Photo Dump

Over the Holiday break Ryleigh and Reese were staying the day at Gramz and Papa's when the dishwasher repair man came by. After he left Ryleigh got down on the floor and was "fixing" the piano like the repair man! Love this girls imagination. 

Here's Reese modeling her new outfit from Gramz and Papa. I love Gymboree!!

Lately when I get out the shower Snowball has been jumping in. Silly cat!

Reese-y hanging out in her jumper while mommy pumps. Love those sweet cheeks!

Reese started drinking from her sippy cup this month!

She loves her water!

Cutie pie!

Ryleigh had her 6 month check up at the dentist. While she was getting her teeth cleaned she got to watch Madagascar 3! She got a good report from the dentist she just needs to slow down on eating candy!

On New Years Eve Ryleigh colored on balloons and each day colored a little more on them. Last weekend while we were cleaning the house I thought it was time to finally pop all the balloons. Ryleigh said this was her favorite balloon and wanted a picture of it before she popped it. 

Friday, Jan 11 at 9:18 Ainsley Tate Ginn was born! 

This week I moved Reese's activity center to the last height adjustment. Pretty soon she'll be crawling all over the place and too big for this. It feels just like yesterday we were putting her in it for the first time.

Reese loves her bath time!!

This weekend we finally got Ryleigh a new car seat! I can't believe she's big enough for a booster seat now!

Reese loves to stand up and play at her table.

 Today Ryleigh and Gramz went to JoAnn's and bought lots of arts and crafts! She just a little spoiled ;)

"Moving On Up..."

This week Reese began the transition to the next room at school. Friday was officially her first full day in the new room. She loves it in there because all the kids in there are at the same stage as her. (Sitting up, playing with toys, crawling, etc) We will miss her teachers they were great!

Here she is with Ms.Lucille one of her former teachers 

and Ms. Barbara one of her new teachers. She was worn out at the end of the day getting to play all day! She's been going to bed at 6:00 every night this week.

Here she is this morning with the other two new teachers, Mrs. Becky and Mrs. Hormni

Reese Can Wave and Clap (Video)

Reese learned to wave and clap over the break! So sweet :)

Christmas Tea

(I forgot to post this back in December)

Every year we go for our Girls Christmas Tea with Great-Grammy, Gramz, me and Ryleigh. This was Reese's first Christmas Tea. We always go to "Into Her Garden Tea Room" in Plano. 

The past two years Ryleigh's gotten her own "tea" (pink lemonade)

Reese just had her own snacks and milk from home but enjoyed being there. 

Last year we took a picture of Ryleigh here so I thought I would be neat to start taking a picture of the girls in the same spot together every year.
