Flashback Friday/Reagan's First Bikini

The first thing I bought when I found out I was pregnant was this 2 piece pink bikini. I didn't know what we were having yet, but I was out shopping, I saw it and I had to have it. Here I am 2 months pregnant, looking so sick and showing off the swim suit.


And now almost 2 1/2 years later Reagan can wear her first bikini!!



Today Reagan and I house sat for Tache. It was a beautiful day so we just hung out with Nicky in the back yard all afternoon.




Nicky always knows how to make Reagan laugh and Reagan loves being around Nicky. She follows her around where ever she goes, sometimes I think it annoys Nicky but other times she is perfectly fine with it.









"Hi plane"













She also follows Flofy around, "FiFi" and I definitely have to watch her closely. She is getting alot better, she has served alot of time outs at Tache's house for pulling her hair. Now she just likes to chase her around calling her name, "Fifi, Fifi, Fifi!"










We listened to music, one of Reagan's favorite songs came on




and she busted out all her best dance moves.





We had snacks,





and Nicky was teaching Reagan how to swim. Of course, she loved it. She is getting so much better in the water. For the first part of the summer she would cling on to me so tight whenever I would put her in the water, but now she is not near as scared.










All in all it was a GREAT Friday!

Certificate of Completion

Tonight I got my Certificate of Completion for my Sewing Fundamentals class!! Wa-hoo! Not only did I get my certificate, but I actually felt more proud and more accomplished tonight than any other class time. My first semester in the course it took me almost the entire semester to make a pair of pants and the matching shirt. However tonight, I made an entire pair of pants in on night! In 3 1/2 hours they were complete and the work on them is better than anything else I have made so far! I was really excited. I would post a picture of them but I want to finish the shirt first. I am taking Reagan to the circus with her friends for her birthday in August so the outfit is for that. I think it might be my favorite outfit so far!



Notice I got an A in the class!

Chocolate Milk!

We decided to give Reagan chocolate milk for the first time today and I think it's safe to say she LOVED it!! (and I couldn't decide on which pictures to post, she is so full of expression!)

Happy Father's Day

We had a wonderful Father's Day this year. We started off the morning with breakfast and opening presents, later we went over to Tache and Tim's house to watch the World Cup Brazil game, afterwards we met the Sperry's at their house in Tijuana for dinner and good company.
It's nice getting together with others, sometimes we just end up spending the weekends (well really just Sunday) just us, but we had a really good time spending it with our friends.

Daddy - Thank you so much for being so wonderful. I have never met anyone who does the most and complains the least. I admire you for all your hard work and know you do it all for us. We will never take it for granted and we appreciate everything you always do. We are truly blessed to have such a loving, caring, patient, hard working man in our lives.

Happy 2nd Father's Day, we love you. - Love, your girls

Reagan loved playing their piano and I loved the pictures of her playing. I am hoping one day she will want to learn so she can play for me.
