Easter...

Our cute little baby and her easter basket... some books, a new outfit and lamb.... she looks thrilled don't you think
This little bunny found a carrot... and likes her new books...
Our internet is actually working for a second so I'm quickly posting some of our Easter pics. Reese found a surprise from the Easter bunny...
We also went to Downey and Preston for Easter to spend some time with the grandparents. It ended up being a really nice day... with some great food and candy. Sorry I'll write more when I know the internet won't cut out at any second.

Hoppy St. Patricks Day...

Ok, so it's not quite Easter yet.. we should be doing something for St. Patty's Day... but they don't exactly have a leprechaun in the mall (she is at least wearing green). When Reese and Todd came and visited me at work today I thought maybe she should get here picture taken with the cheesy Easter Bunny. I think Todd said it only took like 4-5 tries to get her actually smiling and looking at the camera... thanks to Todd jingling his keys. I love that she is easily entertained.

Our funny little girl...

I know this isn't the greatest quality... but whenever I bust out the video camera she stops whatever she is doing that we want to capture and is immediately distracted by the camera.. so I had to use my phone... she absolutely loves her dad... He uses her as his little puppet to make her dance to certain songs and for some reason whenever she does this one she just cracks right up... we've tried others like the macarana (sp) and soldier boy... not quite as fun for her I guess...

In the last little while...

So not too much has been going on lately... Reese's head has been really dry and flaky so we've been making sure to scrub all those flakes on in the tub... it really is quite gross... I'll be glad when she grows out of the flaky head stage. It doesn't seem to bother her though thank heavens... especially when I brush her hair 10 times a day to brush the flakes out.
It is nice to be able to know what she wants -- where as before it was mostly a guessing game which sometimes it still is... but she is falling into somewhat of a routine... eat, play, fussy, sleep... I'm also glad that she is such a cuddler... it cracks me up when she gets so fussy that all you have to do is put a binky in her mouth and magically her eyes close and she is zonked out for a little while...
Yes I know her hair is quite wild. It honestly sticks out in every direction and has not curl or wave what so ever... reminds me a lot of my own hair... at least she has hair I suppose... She is still such a doll with her mad scientist hair...

Knock on wood...

Like father like daughter... I hear Todd was also a thumb sucker. Most of the time she will spit out her binkie and suck on her thumb... must taste better. It usually takes her a minute to get only her thumb in her mouth... she starts off putting her whole fist in her mouth and then eventually narrowing it down to just one appendage.
She just looked so dang cute in this one I couldn't help but put it on here. These are just some funny pics I took with my phone last night.... She is just all smiles all the time now.....

I was happy to report at our last doctor appointment that Reese hadn't been sick yet... well so much for that. Sunday I felt sick thinking it was just allergies... no such luck... hello flu!!! Reese picked up the same symptoms yesterday and all day today I've been sucking boogers out of her nose with the booger sucker thing and inhaling the wonderful vapors from the humidifier. It stinks to be sick and taking care of someone else that is sick. Thankfully Todd isn't at the moment he is wonderful to get me more Kleenex's and cold medicine.

Our Growing Girl...

Pretty happy girl... she smiles all the time now... big toothless smiles!!! Her hair is also looking a little red somedays...
I know she looks kind of dorky with her onsie's sleeves hanging out... but this dress is a 6month and I had anticipated it being a lot warmer before she started wearing it... oh well. She still is pretty cute.

On the 28th we went in for Reese's 2 month checkup. She is know weighing in at a whopping 13lbs 12 oz and 24 1/2 inches long. When we got there the nurse was joking about how much she was eating and that she 'obviously' never spits anything up. The doctor also joked that she looks like she is here for her 4 month appointment. She is our big girl. She also had to get her first round of immunizations... I think I was more scared than she was -- most likely because she didn't know what was going to happen to her. She cried while they were giving her the shots... but for only about 10 seconds after. She was such a good girl (she was also drugged up on Tylenol... so that may have also contributed to her good behavior).
