Christmas/NYE

We had a good Christmas because surprisingly, none of us were in the hospital. For the last 4 out of 6 years, someone has been admitted to the hospital during the holidays. I'm amazed we are not in the hospital. We had no plans for New Years Eve. Luckily because Tim ended up being diagnosed with pneumonia and bronchitis. I fell asleep before midgnight..lol.

Not much has been going on besides Avery has been doing really well going on the potty. The only other thing that has happened in the past few weeks is that Reagan saw the eye doctor for her lazy eye. They said that since she doesnt seem to be nearsided, she does not need glasses. We are going to try a patch on the good eye for a year or two and hope it helps. Lord Baby Jesus, please help us when we try to put the patch on Reagan...lol. I asked the doctor what happens when our kid refuses to wear it and he said that we have to restrain her arms... then eventually Reagan will have to decide if she would rather have her arms un-restrained or if she would wear the patch. He said eventually she will figure out that wearing the patch is better than having her arms restrained. He said that if it doesnt seem to get better in a year or two that she will then have surgery to correct it. He said he normally doesnt like to operate until the child is 3 years old. Tim and I have not tried to put the patch on yet because Reagan has literally been HORRRIBLE these past couple of weeks. There is a book that divides child's development into "Leaps" and I believe she is between  Leap 8 and 9 which is NOT FUN. (https://www.thewonderweeks.com/the-mental-leaps-and-wonder-weeks/)

She is getting a few teeth in the top back of her mouth but I also read this is a crazy time developmentally and they act out. She will not let us put her down for 30 seconds. She has been going to bed really late and waking up 3+ times a night. It has been ROUGH. Hoping it will be over soon. Our super fun, happy baby is no where to be found at the moment, though she is amazing me with everything she seems to be learning. She signs all done , bottle/milk, and Bath now as well. She tries to say a lot of words including, mama, dada, dog, cat, bath, no, yes, etc. I am binge watching NCIS on netflix and everytime the theme song comes on she dances. It is so cute.

Mama says this pic includes 4 of her loves


Reagan is eating pretzels like a princess

No wonder why I was scared at the daycare Christmas program, look at all of these people!



This was me hiding my face during the daycare Christmas program
                                                     
                      

I didnt have any issues eating cake after the program though   


Mama thinks she is strong and decided to hold us both


St Nicks day


My sister is beautiful!


Mama thinks I am the cutest

We put new flooring in the basement. Much better than cement floors!

Daddy had some friends over

Its hard to take a pic with 5 kids in it..suprisingly Reagan and I are looking at the camera at the same time

Momma was surprised the other day when I came downstairs and I was wearing boots and no pants/diaper.



I am teaching Reagan bad things!

Ray Ray and Chewie

Joe Joe is getting so big

Reagan was upset there was no food or water in the dog bowl so she decided to climb in

I LOVE climbing! Momma doesnt think I belong to her because she hates heights

Seriously Joe, you don't let me have any space on the couch

The other day Reagan locked her and Joe in his cage

Momma told me we were going to the mall...this is how i dressed myself

I was nice and share my ice cream with Reagan


How cute are we when we match?!?!



Reagan was fascinated by Santa and I was scared like usual
