Birthday Party, Hayrides & Pumpkin Patch

Funday Sunday with Mommy and Daddy! Today, we went to a birthday party today at a pumpkin patch and Reese had so much fun! Reese went on her first hayride to feed cows and donkeys and even met a brand new baby calf. She did not know what to think about either animal and stayed very close to daddy. Then after cupcakes we went over to the pumpkin patch for some pictures and to let Reese drive the tractor which she LOVED! What a fun way to start fall....









Hanging Around the House

With Reese being on antibiotics for the last 10 days, we have been pretty much house bound.... Here are a few pics with her favorite new riding toy and in her little chair that she loves so much.

What a Weekend!

Today is officially Reese's 14 Month birthday, I can not believe how fast time has gone!

Poor Reese had a pitiful weekend. It started out last week with a stomach bug early in the week and then progressed into full blown coughing and wheezing this weekend. Early Saturday morning, Reese and I got up early and headed to Cook Children's to see what all the coughing was about. After about a 4 hour ordeal, they say "just" allergies.... The she was sick again Saturday night, so I panic about the flu! I called the after hours and talk with them... same thing, must be allergies. I am thinking, "I don't want my poor child to have allergies all her life." :( Then Sunday morning, sick again... so after a long weekend we finally went to Dr Benzick today and she has a sinus infection! So, here we come amoxicillin. Oh yea, did I mention that Paul got food poisoning in between all of this.... Fun times! We are hopefully on the mend!

In spite of our weekend, Reese just keeps us laughing and smiling each day! She is now fully running, doing "cheers" with us at dinnertime and trying to talk. Reese and Dazie are still the best of friends. When Reese wakes up from her naps Dazie runs too her door and waits for me to open it and then darts in to give kisses. So sweet. In the past few days, she has really begun to want to drop her morning nap which is good with me because then we can get out of the house earlier for more fun. Reese is such a special little angel to us and love watching her grow each day!

**Pics to come when we can finally leave the house.

1st Day of School

Reese started school (Mother's Day Out) last week with her buddy Claire. These girls have been buddies from birth! Claire is 4 days older than Reese, so we have done a lot with them over this past year.
My sweet girl was not too sure about school but I have had nothing but great reports from her teachers. I have to say it is SO great to have 5 hours a week to myself, but have to admit I sure do miss my pumpkin every minute! I can not wait to see the adventures that await these precious girls!!
