Spa Baby

Reagan has gotten much better about bath time - especially compared to the first bath we gave her. If you remember, she didn't particularly care for that bath. Now, she has gotten used to the water and really enjoys being in the water. Sometimes the drying off part can be tough, but we're working on that, too. She's quickly getting to be too big for a bath in the sink, since she kicks her legs so hard and comes close to banging her head. It took us a few tries, but now she loves here awesome tub, the Spa Baby! (Thanks, Charles)

See how much fun it is...

Another Boyfriend

So, Tim and I have a bunch of friends with little boys right around Reagan's age. Reagan and I took a trip from Atlantic City to Surf City on Long Beach Island to visit with Collette and baby Brayden. Brayden was born on April 19, so he has a few pounds on her, but she's catching up quickly!

It was a great afternoon to catch up, check out the Surf City beach, and see Collette's beach house.

A Few Pics

A quick update, since I really should be sleeping now. Tim left on Monday for Denver for a few days, so Reagan and I have been on our own since he left for work Monday morning. We do okay by ourselves, but we both miss Tim when he's not here for so long.

Reagan went for her 8 week well baby visit on Tuesday and is still doing great. She was 12.0 lbs and 24 in! And she got a few shots, which went okay when they happened, but wiped her out for the afternoon. She's feeling much better today, so walked down to our local, Philadelphia-style sandwich shop Taylor for lunch and it was delicious!

Working out with dad













I think she's cute when she's angry and, no, I didn't let her scream too long.













Something about the doctor's office makes her really happy - or it could have been the long nap she took while we were visiting my coworkers.

Cute as...

Cabbage?

My sister, Nicole, sent this great onesie from Switzerland. "Chou" translates literally to cabbage, but she says they also use it as a slang for cute. And the letters and cabbage on the shirt are fuzzy, which makes it even better!

African Safari

We found ourselves driving around the African Safari Wildlife Park near Sandusky on Sunday with Katie, Tyler, and Jenna - and what an adventurous drive it was! Thankfully, we made a good decision to leave Reagan with Papa and Grandma, because she is not ready for that kind of dirt and stinkiness. And, we took Grandma's minivan, which got a thorough cleaning afterwards, but I sure am glad it wasn't our car.




We saw lots of deer, petted the bison's tongue, tried to keep the longhorn's horns out of the van, fed the giraffe checked out the alpaca, and Jenna rode a pony. Then, we wandered around the smaller animals outside and watched the NASPIG race. Our pig, Dale Swinehart, Jr., was the winner and Tyler and Jenna were great flaggers.

And, a picture of Reagan, since we haven't posted one in a while.

2nd Week in Huron

Go Tyler!

One morning last weekend, we took a walk over to the playground behind the school and played on their great equipment. Though we played on all of the equipment, the funniest part was Tyler rolling down the slide!
