April has been very exciting!

We have been very busy this month!! I can't believe it's already almost over.
Of course, April means Reagan's birthday. Her birthday fell on a Wednesday this year, and we had her party the following Saturday. She had an absolute blast both days, and I was just as sad as she was when it was bedtime on Wednesday night! For the annual birthday tradition, we took Reagan to the Build a Bear workshop. She decided she needed a monkey. She picked out everything from the headband all the way down to the shoes. Her monkey's name is Molly, and hearing her say the name Molly is so cute I almost wish we were having a girl so we could name her Molly and hear Reagan say it all the time. I guess the monkey will have to do. And yes, she's in a laundry basket in this picture.



After Build a Bear, Reagan had swimming lessons.



This picture is not from her actual birthday...I don't think we took any pictures on her birthday! It may sound sad, but it's only because we were having so much fun! Swimming was followed by dinner and watching Jim play basketball. It was a VERY fun day!




We had an amazing turn out for Reagan's birthday party. I think, not counting us, we had about 18 people here! I didn't know we could all fit in our little house, but we had a blast. It's hard to say which present is Reagan's favorite, but I like to think it's the bike we got her. I'm a little biased though!



Then, Sunday was Easter. We had died Easter eggs the night before, and I hid them while Reagan helped Jim make breakfast on Sunday morning.



She was very proud (and successful) in finding all of her eggs. Then, it was off to church.



It was snowing, so we were late. As a result, Reagan got to sit with us during the service instead of going to nursery. She enjoyed it, I think. After church, we were off to my mom's house. My mom had another egg hunt for her, and her cousin Tanner got to help her. He's still so great with her! I wouldn't expect anything less from him, but that's because I know him. He's extremely patient with her, especially considering he's an 11 year old boy!



They get along great. Once again, she was very proud of herself!



I'm so thrilled to only have 5 more weeks of school! I'm even more thrilled that I won't have to go back until after the baby is born! We haven't decided exactly when I'll be going back yet, but I'm hoping for mid-October. I think we've finally settled on a name, but you'll have to wait until July to find out what it is. I'm relieved that the boy will have a name when we leave the hospital. :)

Hope all is well with everyone, and Grandma Dot, I'm sorry it's been so long since we've posted!!
