Happy Halloween

 From our littlest pumpkin! 

6 months

Yep that's right another month has gone by and Reagan is now half way to being a year old. How is this possible? I really don't know! Here are her 6 month stats....
Weight: 15.5 lbs
Length: 26.25 inches
Head: 17 inches
She didn't gain as much weight as I expected but I think its because she is SO active. She is not sitting up but is scooting all around the place (has been for over a month), it amazes me how well she can move and last week she started getting up on her knees. She has no interest in sitting up, when I make her she looks at me like "why would I sit here when I can move across the room and get that toy or follow Aubrey around?" Then she immediately falls back, rolls over, and starts moving. Here are a few pics of her at 6 months. I tried to get some action shots to show her on the move!!

Reagan is such a happy baby, she melts my heart with her smile and giggles. She wakes up each morning like this, Nate and I fight over who gets to go get her:)

 Getting up on those knees!

 Pushing off for her next move

 Along with sucking her pointer and middle finger on her right hand Reagan also sucks her lower lip. We see this face a lot.

 I started her on rice cereal this week. She isn't sure about it yet. I added some squash one night and she gave the funniest face I have ever seen! From that point she locked her lips tight, I will keep on trying. Here are a few pics from one of her first feedings.

Mimi brought back this bib from Rome especially for Reags!

Happy 6 months Sissy! You are such a blessing to us!!

Swingin

We put Sissy in the swing for the first time this week. If you can't tell below, she loved it!!

I have about 10 more pics with huge smiles like this one!

Such as this one:)

 Action shot

 Sweet girl!

While Reagan swung Aubrey climbed the rock wall on the princess castle. Oh and she loved pushing Sissy in the swing, she did it for a very long time for a 2 year old! 

Hunt Club Farm

Uncle Ben came to visit for a few days and while Daddy was working we played! Aubrey has been asking to fly a kite for a few weeks now and Ben heard her talking about it and wanted to take her. We drove all around town looking for one and apparently kites get put away with all the beach toys and there were none to be found! So we  made the last minute decision to go to Hunt Club Farm for some pumpkin picking and petting zoo fun. Both Aubrey and Reagan had a blast being outside and seeing all the animals. It was so fun we might just do it again!

Looking for the perfect pumpkin

She found it!

Well she is like me and couldn't decide and then finally picked the smallest pumpkin possible which was not photographed:)

Feeding the friendly goats, Aubrey loved them!



She loved petting and giving them hugs! The hens/chickens however she was terrified of!



Getting ready for her pony ride!

Riding Thunder the miniature horse

Yee haw!

Thanks for the fun at Hunt Club Uncle Benny!

USNA

We took the girls to Annapolis this past weekend to watch Navy vs Air Force! We had a blast hanging out with some of our former VFA-15 Valion friends the Chick's and Silverberg's.  On Friday we drove to Pax River, MD and stayed with Jon and Tiff then headed to the game Saturday morning.  The weather was a bit iffy but the rain held out until right after we lost by one point in overtime :(  We had a great time at the game and hope to make it up to Annapolis again soon. Great idea Bill and Stac!

Aubs and Daddy outside the Mid store.

Mommy and her girls about to walk to the stadium.

All the girls! We had so much fun hanging with our Valion buddies!

The Brigade of Midshipman going crazy after we came back at the end of the 4th quater.

Stac got the girls Navy stickers to wear. Aubrey's favorite part of the game was looking at Bill the goat (who is old and gnarly of course:)

Cheering with Daddy.

We came back!!!!! and then we lost:(  ... at least Theodore Donald looked awesome in his BGMJS!
