Pregnancy, Playdates, and Posing

I have come to realize that there is rarely a picture of me posted.  That is my fault, because from sun up to sun down I am in my pajamas looking a mess.  So, I figured on the days that I actually put on fresh clothes, I should probably capture those moments.  Haha!  ....And yes, even though I haven't mentioned it in a while, I am still pregnant, FEELING GREAT by the way!! I was sick with Reagan the entire time, so this is all new to me.  I am 20 weeks tomorrow:)

 Me: "Be gentle with Mama's belly" ........remember.......for the trillionth time:)

Now, some Daddy time.  He loves showing off his two new top teeth:)

Twins....Maybe the next baby will look like me:)

We may have a future guitarist on our hands......one of his favorite things to do:)

Funny Story: 

The other day, Matthew and I both decided that we smelled poop, so he volunteered to tackle it.  Well, he went downstairs and was making all kinds of racket in the storage room. I was like "What in the world is he doing?" Anyway, he came up with a gas mask and headed to get the job done.....until he yells from the bedroom "Are you kidding me?  It's just a pee diaper!!"  Men....they're such weanies. Haha!!

Then, later in the week, Reagan and I finally got out and went to a playdate with his girlfriends.

No, he was not in time out.  He kept licking the refrigerator.... at someone else's house.....how embarrassing. Haha!  He has never done that at his own home before.

Reagan and one of his girlfriends, Olivia.  

Look at her eyes!!! They are so blue, they make Reagan's look brown even though his are blue, too:)

Last but not least, this picture says it all........

"If you guys don't finish painting this house, I'm gonna have to do it myself!!"

Our Move Across Town

I'm sure all of my Lynchburg friends think I have fallen off the face of the earth by now.  Matthew and I have been consumed with moving across town.  The house isn't officially complete yet, so no pictures, but I will at least bring you along for some of our journey.  We said goodbye to our old rental last week with one last cleaning.  I can 100% say I will miss NOTHING about that house other than how cheap it cost to live there.  Reagan made it very difficult, because every time I turned on the vacuum, he would cry and hold onto my leg.  So, I just handed it over to him.

Sporting a bit of a mohawk that day:)

Daddy and Reagan took a "guys" trip to Lowes so I could actually get some work done.  

Then, we went back home and cleaned out some of Daddy's old baby bins.  

This clown was the first to go.  

This one was a definite keeper! Do they look slightly similar in this picture? Haha

Enjoying some time on our new back deck, while missing one sock, as usual

Reagan went in like he was going to give me a kiss on the arm and then bit a hunk out of it TWICE! 

On a more positive note, Nana and Grandpa Schallmo came in on Tuesday night and we had a blast. They worked so hard, painting like chickens with their heads cut off, to help us get settled in.  We did manage to have some fun, too:)  

About ten minutes later, Reagan turned over an entire mug of hot chocolate all over the table!!

Dinner at one of Lynchburg's best Mexican restaurants

 "Daddy, they have my favorite on the menu!!"  

About ten minutes before a meltdown and he turned over an entire glass of water on the table!!  

Thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you for ALL of your help!! We miss you already!

A bit blurry, but the only one Reagan was smiling in.

  

It's Been Way Too Long

Lately, I don't know what has come over me.  I haven't been taking my normal 20 pictures a day of my little man.  I guess the move has taken over my mind.  My dad, a.k.a. Macguyver, came last week to help with the house.  There wasn't anything he didn't know how to do, Praise God!!!!  At one point he needed some washers to screw something in the wall, so instead of going to the store, he just made his own. Haha!  Anyway, Reagan and I went over there everyday after his nap and he wanted to help Pa work so badly!!

"If you don't let me out there, I'm gonna take this hammer and bust through the door!!"

His pants were filthy at the end of one of the days from all the "work" he had done.

Then, my mom came to visit for the weekend.  While she was here, we got word that our Uncle Alton lost his battle with cancer but rest assured, he is healthier than any of us now:)

We took advantage of a babysitter, so once we put Reagan to bed, we headed out to Liberty University for an outdoor concert with Sarahann, Jay, Ashley, and Jimmy.  It was a lot of fun except I knew none of the songs and it was POURING rain.  The best part was the fireworks at the end.  Matthew and I watched from the tailgate.  Then, we all went over to the Cagle's for some homemade chocolate chip cookies! Yum Yum:)

It kinda looks like I have a full beard in this picture!!

Reagan and Daddy being goofy

Happy 9 Months Reagan!!! We love you!!! 

Crossville Bound

Reagan and I decided to go visit everyone in Crossville, so he and I ventured off BY OURSELVES! YIKES!!!!! Eight hours later, we got there, but I'm pretty sure I looked like I had stuck my finger in a light socket....blood shot eyes and all from all the screaming.  Anyway, once we got there, it was a wonderful trip.  We packed soooooo much into one week, starting with a ride on the mower with Pa:)  They did four laps and Reagan was ready for bed.  

I caught them down by the barn looking at the tractor.  

The next day, he and Kinley had a playdate.

That night, Nanny came over, gave him a bath, got him ready for bed, and of course.....got some cuddle time in.

Telling secrets:)

P.S.- If you notice the pill bottle in the picture, don't be alarmed.  Pa took a bunch of empty bottles and filled them with coins.  The best toys are homemade.

Running the bath water

Big boy standing

Nanny gave him a massage every night before bed.  

Uh oh.....I'm gonna have to keep it up.

On Sunday, we celebrated my Great Granny Tabor's 94th birthday!! 

Make a wish!!! 

Of course, Reagan gobbled up all the good food.  His favorite foods on the trip were chicken 'n dumplins, corn on the cob, and mac 'n cheese.

Another food he loved was Pa's strawberry yogurt.

Another day, Pa took Reagan and I to a lake in town for some good fun.

We had to keep his paci in, because he kept biting the float.

Back at Nanny's house, she had a special cabinet of tons of tupperware for him to play with.

After a few hours on the drive back, Reagan took over.....I mean, I was getting tired and he seemed to know what he was doing:)

Last night when we got home, Daddy and Reagan snuggled in the crib. Haha!

Thanks, Nanny, for the breathable bumper!  It works great:)
