Birthday and the Binky Fairy!

Reagan turned three on May 23rd!! She is such a fun little girl though she has her defiant and cranky times! She's very smart and loving. She loves playing outside, coloring, doing art projects, playing with Myah and friends, and doing anything Myah does!
      
 We played a whip cream game with our friends. Reagan preferred to just eat the cream!
On May 15th we celebrated Reagan and her Nana's birthdays:
In April, the Binky Fairy came!! Reagan got all of her binkies, put them in a bag, wrapped them up, and the next morning the Binky Fairy had taken that bag and left Reagan a present in return! It was a very exciting time. And Reagan has done great without the binkies. There were a few night that she cried a little but overall she did great!
Leaving the binkies for the pickup.
 Finding what the Binky Fairy left for Reagan!
 She was so excited!!!
Reagan decided to name the horse "Sassy" all on her own and she is IN LOVE with her! It's been so nice to not have to worry about binkies anymore!!!! I do not miss Reagan yelling for me in the night because she couldn't find her binky. Good job Reagan, our cute little girl!

Preschool Graduation!

This year Myah was in preschool with Ms. Janet and Ms. Danae. She loved it and her cute personality really grew. She became a little more outgoing and sure of herself. Myah and I will miss her teachers so much!
We gave her teachers these "caterpillar" gummies attached to a butterfly balloon. They really helped her grow into a beautiful butterfly!
Two of Myah's best friends, Lexi and Ollie.
The singing program was so much fun and Myah had a blast singing for all the parents!
We just love Ms. Janet! She really helped Myah when she was nervous and helped her through the emotions, especially when Justin went to South Carolina. I'm so proud of Myah for doing so well! Ms. Janet said that Myah was always so good to listen and then to help any struggling students. She is such a sweet girl and I'm glad she kept her sweetness while at school!

My birthday and sanity!

Well, I turned 29 years old on Feb. 28th. We celebrated with our families and I had a good week! Justin signed us up for a cooking class date that I am really excited about and got me some cutting boards I've been wanting! Besides the aches, pains, and more wrinkles, don't mind getting older each year, so I'm happy to be 29.
 My sister-in-law, Jess asked me what my goals were for this 29th year. I really don't like specific goals too much because I don't want to upset myself if I don't accomplish them! I'm the kind of person who says, "I'd like to get better at this," and then I'm happy no matter how good I get at it! 

This year I would like to be a more patient and loving mother. I found this past year that the best way for me to do that is to cross stitch during the day. I love to do it and it's the perfect thing for me to do while playing with the girls. I can stop at any stitch and still be present with them while keeping sane! I like being a mother but it is really hard for me to keep happy and be patient when I don't have something like this to do during the day. So this year I'd like to always have something to cross stitch so I can be a better mom and love being with Myah and Reagan!
Here are my 2015 stitches!
       The alphabet is in the girls' room.
 I did this love tree while Justin was in South Carolina and it hangs in our room.
This is for my parents. I still need to finish the wall hanging part.

Christmas!

We had a fun Christmas! The girls enjoyed all their presents and we had a good time just being together. The big excitement was that the girls got BUNK BEDS for Christmas! And let me tell you, they have LOVED them!
 
Santa brought lots of little presents for these two cuties! Myah and Reagan made sure to tell Santa that they both wanted "skirts, makeup, and books." And Santa delivered!
Justin did awesome job taking Myah's toddler bed and Reagan's crib down and putting the bunk bed together!
  
Myah could hardly stand the wait; she was so excited!
