Reese slept in her new big girl bed!!!

Marshall and I are SO excited! Reese slept like an angel last night in her new roomin her new big girl bed!!! We discovered once we had it set up that it was too high off the ground and that it wasn't safe. She could easily stand up and fall over the rails, and we all know she is a "stander" and a climber. So we put the mattress (with the rails) on the floor in her room. We plugged in her new Tinkerbell night light (a gift from Santa) and put all her blankies in there, and she slept ALL NIGHT without waking up at all. She looked so comfortable throughout the night! We are so proud of her!!! Now let's see how nap time goes.......

Here she is last night...this is her new favorite position. One leg crossed over the other!

Reese's new silly face

This cracks us up every time she does it...and, of course, she won't do it on command. We had a picnic down at the garden and then she got in the swing. She cried when it was time to leave =( This face makes me laugh every time I see it!



And here are some more cute ones...

Our family Christmas picture

I never imagined how hard it would be to get a 2-year-old to sit still and smile at the camera! This is about picture #32 of about 50....and she's still not looking at the camera. She cries every time we go to a photo studio, so we decided to take our picture using the tripod and timer. It really wasn't any easier...but here's what we got! Merry Christmas!

31 week update

Well, I have 9 weeks to go! I saw Dr. Ratleff this morning and everything looks great with Baby Girl 2. She weighs a little over 3 lbs. and is measuring right on target. She is breech right now, which I wasn't expecting. The ultrasound tech couldn't get any good shots of her face, so I will have another scan in about a month. We did confirm that she is still a girl, so we don't have to start buying boy clothes! I've gained 15 lbs. total, which is where I should be. Here I am as of today:

Christmas is coming!

We got our Christmas tree last weekend. It started raining as soon as we picked it out, but we got a few pictures of Reesie with the trees. She wasn't in the mood to investigate them.


Friday I took her to see Santa....she HATED him! She took one look at him and pitched a fit to get off his lap. This is the picture we got...don't mistake it for her telling Santa what she wants for Christmas -- she's looking at him like he's the most hideous thing she's ever seen...haha!

Happy Thanksgiving!

We shared Thanksgiving with Granny Betty and family. She has a lot of yard space, so Reese was more than happy to run around! It was a beautiful day, so she burned off a lot of the turkey she ate.
