Regardless of a situation, I’m willing to make fun of myself at any {Read More}

My Bloggy Love Miss Jo and Co

Check this out...

Here’s a fun story… Little did I know that when I started blogging I would be meeting fellow bloggers in my own area. I was reading my favorite blogs via Bloglovin (seriously the only way to get a great feed of blogs you follow) and stopped on Stefani from Miss Jo and Co.

My truly terrible headache is at the base of my skull and ready to explode at any minute so I’m going to get this post written now before I can’t. Yesterday if you read my post Headache From Hell you know that I didn’t intend to write that yesterday. Instead I wanted to tell you all about Fairytales and animals.

Tomorrow is Reagan’s second birthday party! I’m not sure who is excited more…me or her! It’s so much more fun this year knowing that she understands a whole lot more of what is happening. You tell Reagan all about her party and she struts around screaming “I’m gonna be two!” She has it…birthday party fever! Brian and I went shopping for the last few odds and ends for the party while Reagan was at daycare yesterday. One of those items {Read More}

That’s a Boy’s Breakfast

Kristen, Phil and Rey enjoying breakfast!

Yesterday we had some friends of ours visit from South Lake Tahoe. They were down in the area and we invited them to stay overnight with us before they had to head back up the hill. Reagan was ecstatic about this because she loves having overnight visitors. She gets to show off all her cool stuff and usually stay up later when she has visitors. Kristen and Phil walked in the door and came bearing gifts which made Reagan even {Read More}

My Social Butterfly

Social Butterfly

Reagan is a happy kid. She squeals in delight at being around new people and will strike up a conversation with practically anyone. I used to joke that Rey was my milk carton child because she will walk up to people and say hey or want to get involved in some way. That’s horrible to say I know. I fear the very thought of someone snatching my child away from me. Reagan turns two next month. I can hardly believe {Read More}
