We Love to Laugh

Reagan has a very fun little book
that laughs each time you push the button
and turn the page.

Proving that laughing is indeed contagious...

Dance Party

Reagan was enjoying a little afternoon
dance party in the kitchen.

She Walks!

Here it is folks... finally captured on tape
(yes, that is my flipflop in her hand - actual size)

Former ISU Redbird's Mom's Club

This is a new club that we (me and 2 old friends from college) have decided to start

to help us get together every so often so the girls can play...

(aka so the mommies can catch up since they live so far away).

This weekend we drove north to meet at the

SplashStation Waterpark

and what fun the girls (mommies) had!

Our Monkey Visits the Zoo!

Saturday the Bull Family packed up and drove out to

Miller Park (in Bloomington) to show Reagan that there

are more animals in the world than just cats and squirrels...

We noticed Reagan was drawn to the fake animals and

didn't care so much for the real ones (pesky fences).

Reagan's First Steps!

Our girl actually walked by herself yesterday!
I was chatting on the phone with DirectTV and left the room,
when I returned she was "sorting" her clothes and turned
towards me when she heard my voice and
took FOUR big girl steps all by herself!

I ran to get my camera planning to capture this moment
with video - like stalking a tiger in the jungle I
discretely set up said camera on her mini
table and started filming... after editing the film later,
all I got was her re-organizing the bottom drawer
of her dresser (she does this daily)...
She seems unsure of the white skirt with polka dots.

Giving Ahhs and Kisses...

Making a mess of her room is Reagan's new favorite activity
and when she locates a friend she is sure to
tackle them and shower them with affection.
(which is pretty cute)
