Reagan's Injury!

So for Memorial Day Reagan and I spent some time in the ER. She and Ethan were playing outside and he swung his golf club and hit her in the eye. When I first saw it all bloody, I thought it was coming from her eyeball. Thank goodness it was just a cut right above it. She had to have two stitches and was such a brave little thing. But talk about giving you a heart attack! This is why moms get gray hairs (which by the way I'm having colored next week, yessssss!).

This was the morning after and she's very puffy, but in good spirits! :)

This is today, 3 days later, starting to get black and blue, but not so puffy.

The red is just scabbing and dry blood from the injury, and we don't want to scrub it off and open the wound, so it's just a beauty mark for now. She likes looking at her owie in the mirror!

Reagan's First Haircut!

The other day I took Reagan to get her first big girl haircut and this fun place called Kids Castle Cuts. The whole place is just for kids. They get to sit in cool cars for their seats, play with toys and get a treat when they're done. And the best part is, no matter how obstinate your kid may be, they will still get a haircut! My kids were great but I've seen some tantrum throwers and yes, they need their hair cut too.

Here's Reagan's time and I just wanted to show a little comparison of when Ethan went for his first haircut. He was also only a year old, whereas Reag's is 2 1/2. Oh, well, his hair just grows fast. :)













She even got pretty clippies and sparkle spray. Unfortunately my camera ran out of batteries to get the full on finished product. :( She loved the pampering though.

Sprinkler Fun!

We've been enjoying some glorious weather here lately. So we broke out the swimming suites and sprinkler and got wet (well the kids did, swimming suits and I are in a long term ongoing disagreement). :) Here's some pics I snapped while they were playing!


Had to get a booty shot of Reag's in there, so cute!

They enjoyed being chased by the water.



Takin' a break!

Ethan's Mother's Day Songs



I've never posted a movie before. :) This is of Ethan singing his Mother's Day songs with his class. He's one of the only ones doing the hand motions, too. Watch to the very end because the last words of the song are "I love you" and he points right at me. Love it! Happy Mother's Day!

When was the last time you enjoyed a picnic with a nice...juicy...peanut butter and jelly sandwich?! Whip one up! It was good!




YUMMMMMM!

Pre K Mother's Day




Today I got to go to Ethan's PreK class for a special Mother's Day party. I love going to school with him and seeing what he does during the day.



He played so nicely with his friends at circle time.

I got a lovely hand made tissue paper flower!

What a treat to hear them sing!

My darling and wonderful son!

This is the poem that was on a craft he made for me with a handprint on it:

"My Hand Prints"
There used to be so many
Of my fingerprints to see
On furniture and walls and things
From sticky little me.
But if you stop and think awhile
You'll see I'm growing fast
These little moments disappear
You can't bring back the past.
So here is a special handprint
Just so that you can say
This is how my fingers looked
When I placed them here today.

Go grab your Kleenex! :) Happy Mother's Day to ALL!!!!!!
