The compromise and the new fighting technique

William has decided that when he sees any commercial on TV for a toy he has to say "I want that for my birthday"or"Reagan wants that for her birthday" it depends on if it is a girl or boy toy, Well I got sick of hearing him say that after the trillionths time and told him that he can no longer say that because if he does he will go to his room, but he got upset because he REALLY NEEDS the toys, crazy I know right? So I compromised with him and said OK you can say "That's a cool toy" for any toy he sees so that I know that he wants it for his birthday. Now all I here is "That's a cool toy!" which might seem strange but I'm OK with hearing that.

Now on to Reagan, she has decided to start fighting back with Will, just this morning they were fighting over where they were going to sit on the couch, then Reagan went across the room, I thought nothing of it until I heard William whimpering "Reagan you can not bite me that hurts" I looked at his arm and indeed there was a huge bite mark, so Reagan went to time out, when she got out of time out I asked her why she was in time out she said that it was "cause I ate Will's arm" It was so funny, luckily I contained myself and finished lecturing her on why we don't bite. Hopefully she has learned her lesson, because Will doesn't have that many limbs left

A Christmas Story Reagan Style

So we inherited a bunny costume from Will and Reagan's friend Ava, she put it on this morning and unlike Ralphy She hasn't wanted to take it off at all

I tried to take a picture like Ralphy but we don't have a landing on the stairs and Reagan wasn't cooperating
Here is her crazy smile

and our bunny eating a carrot

Firsts for Kaylee

Kaylee had some firsts this week, she is about 5 1/2 months old now so I decided to try feeding her some "mush" (baby rice cereal) which to my amazement she figured out how to swallow it right away



I just have to get her to laugh so that she will open her mouth, she is still working on how to get it in her mouth, she has tried to have her mouth closed and just suck it in, it is pretty funny.

Yesterday morning she also has a first, she had a blue tongue, thanks to her big sister sharing her sweet tart from Halloween with her. Aren't big sisters nice? Luckily I figured out why Kaylee was gagging and got it out before any harm could be done.

and last night she finally rolled over for the first time. Don't get me wrong I am really happy for her, but I think I liked it when she couldn't move and I knew were she was





She was pretty surprised with herself

Raking Leaves

So today Will, Reagan and I went outside while Kaylee napped and we decided to surprise Dad by raking the leaves, there were not many leaves left because we don't have a tree in our yard anymore, but our neighbor has a tree the leaves of which tend to fall and/or blow in our yard, so they had some leaves to rake.



They were having fun throwing the leaves in the air

I don't think Will knows how to not make a crazy face for the picture
Reagan is my Pink Marshmallow

This one is my favorite picture out of the bunch



Dad came home just as Will left for school so Reagan got all the credit for the raking

Reagan's new profession?

The other night after bath time I was sitting in the living room when all of the sudden I heard my hairdryer on, I went into my room and saw ...

A silly little girl when she was done she decided to dry Will's hair as well


So what do you think does she have a new profession?

Oh let me show you Will's results

I think she is going to start charging.

Happy Halloween!!

So we had a great Halloween,


Kaylee inherited Will's giraffe costume, surprisingly with no complaints


Reagan was the cutest Jo Jo ever ( out of the blue while we were trick or treating she shouted " I'm Jo Jo" it was quite funny)
William was Buzz Lightyear, between him saying " I have too much candy" and making an emergency bathroom break in between houses we made it through another year.
