Merry Christmas!

My how time goes by. Reagan is 9 months old now and weighed a whopping 13 pounds 10 ounces at our last doctors visit. She is about 24 inches long now so we have doubled our birth height. Reagan continues to learn new things each week. Her favorite thing to do this week is fake cough. It started out being cute but now she does it until she throws up. This is not so cute:)

Reagan had the privilege to be the flower girl in Kristie Petterson's wedding this month. She did remarkable well for a 9 month old and remained quiet and awake the whole time. Kristie made Reagan's outfit for the wedding. I posted some pictures of trying the close on. We don't have any wedding pictures yet.

I have been brought to tears many times the past couple months thinking how different the holidays could have been this year. I am so thankful God heard and answered our prayers. I am honored and humbled that God is entrusting me to take care of this very special little girl. Thank you all for your many thoughts and prayers this year! We truly serve a God of miracles. Please enjoy the Christmas season with your families and take time to remember the most important gift of the season, Jesus!

May God Bless!

Dear Friends and Family,

Please forgive my negligence in updating the blog. While I can think of many excuses it mainly comes down to laziness on my part!! We have had a busy month during October with beach trips and lots of good news. Reagan went back to see Dr. Weaver, her eye doctor, and everything checked out normal. He said she doesn't need seen again till 3 or 4 years old. How great is our God!! Thank you all who have been praying for Reagan. We were expecting glasses but God once again has blessed us. Reagan went to the doctor Tuesday for some shots and weighed in at a hefty 12 pounds 12 ounces. Mommy finally is able to pack up the newborn clothes. We sure have got our use out of them.
Reagan is eating baby food now and seems to love sweet potatoes! She has started rolling over and is sitting with little support. She really likes to stand and thinks she is hot stuff when she does. Reagan recently found her voices and likes to make all kinds of noises and to our dismay she can cry too. Thankfully this does not happen very often because Mommy and Daddy have a hard time hearing it. Daddy (along with the grandparents) wants me to call the doctor to see what is wrong. I think we have been spoiled with our quite, mild tempered child!!!

I hope you enjoy the pictures!

God Bless,
Amy

Six months already! Reagan is growing fast. We haven't been back to the doctor but according to moms measurements Reagan is about 11 pounds and 21 inches long. She is all smiles these days. We have been blessed with a very happy child. We are working on exercises but so far Reagan is just enjoying kicking her feet and watching her toys. It won't be long I'm sure before she is rolling and babbling. It is so much fun to watch her develop and learn new things.

Fun on the beach

Daddy and Reagan enjoy sitting in the shade.

I can't believe summer is almost over, time has gone so fast. Last week we decided to take a trip to the beach with my family for the week. The week was so nice we only had one rainy day which I spent at the outlets. Reagan did so well all week sleeping through the night and enjoying the breeze on the beach. Unfortunately the week had to come to an end and I returned to work. Robert did very well staying with Reagan alone as I knew he would. He is such a great Daddy, Reagan and I are very blessed!


Reagan and her cousin, Molly, were dedicated last Sunday. It was a lovely dedication that we were honored to share with our family and friends. Lots of tears where shed during the service as we remembered the past 5 month. Tears of happiness at the goodness and mercy of our Heavenly Father. Thank you God for my beautiful, healthy, little girl.

Reagan, Molly, and Matthew Can you believe Reagan is older than Molly? We have some catching up to do!

Reagans first sleep over. Taylor came over for a few hours and we had lots of fun. Mommy says it is a good thing she didn't have twins though!!!

I can not believe how fast time has flown by. Reagan is 5 months old now. Last week we went to the Doctor and Reagan weighed 8 pounds 8 ounces and was about 20 inches long. The Doctors are very happy with her weight gain and progress so far. Since our last hospital experience Reagan has not had any more episodes that have required oxygen. Thank you God for your continual blessing on my little girl. One bad episode was enough to last me a life time.
Reagan is starting to become very alert during the day, sleeping through the night (YEA!!!), and smiling when you talk to her. Her progress continues to amaze me. A day doesn't go by that I don't thank God for His touch on Reagan.
While so much has been going on in our lives it is such a blessing to be able to relax now and spend time with Reagan at home. I finally get to be mommy! My plan is to return to work next weekend so pray that goes smoothly. I love my job, I just love my daughter more! Robert will be with Reagan while I am working. He is a little nervous about her having an episode while he is alone with her but I know he will do a great job. I am sure the Father/Daughter bond will only get stronger while I am at work.
I look forward to hearing from you.

Love,

Amy
