Snow Coral

When the snow gets covered in dirt, then starts to melt, Keith says it looks like snow coral.

Reagan funnies

Thank Goodness it's Friday! Here are more Reagan funnies.

I was pulling Reagan's hair clip out of her hair and a few hairs got stuck in the clip. I said, "Oops, I'm sorry Reagan. I got a few strands of hair." Reagan said, "Oh, it's okay, I got more hair."

We picked up some Zaxby's chicken and fries last night and I told Reagan, "You know, we can't eat fries everyday. It's not good for our hearts." Reagan said, "Yeah, and if we eat that every day God will have to shaaaaake it out! Then it will be a clean heart!"

Easter teachings

Reagan has been asking about the things she learned in school about Easter. Here are a few of the things she said to me yesterday on the way home in the car.

"Oh, mommy! I just saw a cross at that church. Like the cross Jesus was on!"

"Mommy, those mean men poked Jesus! They stuck him with thorns!"

"Mommy, why was he on a donkey?"

Bedtime funnies with Reagan

Here is last night's conversation between me and Reagan as I was tucking her in.

Reagan-"What shape is this?" (she held her fingers up in the shape of a triangle)

Me-"A triangle!"

Reagan-"Good! Now, what is this?" (she held her fingers up in the shape of a heart)

Me-"A heart!"

Reagan-"Good job. Now, what is this?" (she scrunched her fingers down into what looked like a small rectangle, then began moving it like it was a beating heart)

Me-"A beating heart!"

Reagan-"Yes, and you know what that is? Come 'ere."

Reagan- (whispering) "GOD!"

Me-"Oh, he's in our hearts!"
Reagan-"Yeah, he's knocking, knocking, knocking, but mom.....will he ever stop knocking? I think he's gonna get tired!!!"

It's a Girl!

One week ago, we found out that little baby McAdams is a little GIRL! We're so excited about this little blessing and bundle of joy. I can't wait to meet her and Caroline and Reagan will love having a girl cousin.

Now the fun begins. I get to plan an adorable PINK baby shower! The party is in June, but everything is already planned! It should be a great time of fellowship and showering of love on our sweet sister Jane, brother Tyler, and baby mini-Mac.

Gifts to the Girls

While sipping on my morning coffee, I took a look at my insulated coffee mug and remembered a post from a while back. I realized that I forgot to follow up on the post about fabric! So here is the final result! Ta da!

I purchased a set of 6 customizable insultated mugs from Oriental Trading, found fabric at Hancock's, cut the fabric with pinking shears, and had a coworker monogram each one. The result was these oh-so-pretty mugs! I gave them as gifts to the coffee drinkers in my life: my mom, sisters, and mother-in-law.....and ME! Everyone loved them. I hope they get to use them as well.

Daddy's Girl

As we were heading out this morning, Reagan's straps were a little tight on her car seat this morning and this was the conversation that followed:

Me-These are a little tight with your jacket on. I will have to fix it later.

Reagan-NOoooo. DADDY will fix it.

Me-Oh, he will?

Reagan-Yes, he will get out his tools and fix it for me!

Later on, she explained her what she wanted to be when she grows up.....and what daddy will be.

Reagan-I'm going to be a Firegirl!

Me-Oh, like a firefighter?

Reagan-Yeah, and my puppy will be a firedog!

Me-That sounds like fun, but you have to be careful!

Reagan-Yeah, and Daddy is going to be a DOCTOR when he grows up!

Friday night, after dinner Reagan looked up at our wedding picture on the wall and pointed to it.

Reagan-Oh, look! It's when you were married!

Me- Yes, that's our wedding picture!

Reagan-But, mom, don't laugh at what I'm gonna say, okay?

Me-Okay.

Reagan-When I get married, I'm not gonna kiss daddy on the lips, I'm gonna kiss him on the cheek!

Me-Oh! You're going to marry daddy?

Reagan-Yes! And you, Mommy!!!

 

"My finger may be small, but I can still wrap my Daddy around it."
