Let the Good Times Roll


Well, we are officially mobile! Reagan rolled over last week (see video).

Every day I am amazed at what she does and learns. Just today I spent a good 15 minutes watching her watch her hands. She would raise her arm into the air and move her hand around, completely mesmerized by her ability to control the movement of that five-fingered thing. That may seem like a waste of time to some, but I am in awe of everything this baby does/learns/sees/says/etc.

Last Sunday was the baby dedication at Greenville First Christian, so Reagan was dedicated (see picture). I've been to those dedication services every year for pretty much my entire life, but I had never listened so intently to the words as I did this year. It's a great responsibility and a great blessing to be a parent.

5 Months Old





Reagan is 5 months old now and has started baby food! We started off with carrots first, then butternut squash. Those both went o.k. THEN, yesterday, we tried sweet potatoes! Oh my, do we love sweet potatoes! She even took the spoon away from me today and took it to her mouth on her own! It doesn't seem like she should be big enough to be eating foods, let alone feeding herself. The video I've posted below is of her eating her new favorite food.

This month we also enjoyed her first snow! Picture included :)

I've been enjoying working part-time. I can't seem to get enough of this little sweet potato! Even the 2-3 days I work a week seem too much, but Matt seems to think we should make some money. Oh well.

Matt and I are enjoying all the sleep we're getting - Reagan's sleeping 10.5-11 hours at night! Yay! We are so thankful to God for this sweet baby girl.
