We Love Uncle Lance & LA!

As soon as Honey got into town, we all went to lunch (listened to Henry sing to Reagan & the rest of the table) then headed to LA. Darrin & I have never made stops along the way because we have always had Reagan in the car, so since Reagan was with Honey, we finally had the chance! We stopped in Laguna Beach, Venice and Muscle beach, drove through Newport and finished in Santa Monica for the night. The next day we walked through Rodeo and almost saw someone famous! We noticed 3 black escalades, all with body guards, and tons of people waiting around outside, but after waiting for about 45 minutes, we decided to just give up. Rats, maybe next time! After that we walked around a little more before driving back home to see Reagan & Honey for dinner. We had a good time, the weather was great, but time went by way to fast!

Happy 4th of July!

By far the best 4th of July ever, thanks to Darrin & Lance we got a great spot on the beach! They woke up at 5:30 in the morning to get a parking spot before they were all taken and set up our stuff on the beach. They came back home, we hung out and just prepared for the day until around 2 o'clock. (they took two cars so they could leave the truck parked)

The day was perfect! We made homemade cookies and dips the night before, had tons of fruit, drinks and grilled out hot dogs and hamburgers for dinner. I think we ate the entire day! We watched the beautiful sun set and as it got cooler outside we lit the fire. We brought our fit pit out there to keep us warm at night and to top it off we cooked smores!

By around 8:45 we were the only ones left on the beach. Everyone had packed up and headed other places to watch the fireworks. I kept telling them it was time to go and that that we couldn't see the fireworks from where we were. Finally they blew out the fire and as we were carrying our last load to the car the biggest firework shot up right over out head!! I couldn't believe it!! So we open up our chairs and watched the firework show, it was awesome and Reagan loved it!! What a fun day on the beach!

Yay!! Uncle Lance is Here!!

Today is finally the day my Uncle Lance gets here! The last time I saw him was Christmas and clearly, we love each other. He is always showing off my new pictures but now he can finally see me in person! We are going to have so much fun! I can't wait to see him, I love my Uncle Lance so much!!

Love,
Uncle Lance's favorite niece, Reagan (nation)

Introducing Bradie Grace Batson!!

Another one of my best friends joined the Mommy club today! Bradie Grace Batson born June 30th, 3:52 p.m., 7 lbs 13 oz, 20 1/2 inches. She is absolutely perfect, just precious! For some reason I feel like she looks like Reagan when she was born, I think its the dark hair and skin, round face, long fingers and toes. So Reagan not only has a new BFF but a twin as well!

I am so happy for Carrie & Lee, I know they will make wonderful parents. I can't wait to come home and love on all these babies! Bradie you are so stinkin cute and I can not wait meet you. Reagan has been asking me when she is going to get to play with you, she already loves you so much! Be a good girl for your Mommy these next few weeks, she is learing too.

Can't wait to see you! Only 11 more days!

Poor Princess

Chances are if you see Reagan this is what she is doing, fussing or crying! Poor thing, I feel so bad for her, she is getting not one, not two but THREE top teeth. I have been giving her tylenol, motrin and using oragel as much as possible but I can see she is so uncomfortable. Here is a picture of her top tooth (and her crying). Only one is actually starting to come down, the other two have just cut through the gum.
