15 WEEKS - TWO STEPS FORWARD, ONE STEP BACK

Reagan is 15 weeks old now & becomming more & more aware every day. She has her hands in her mouth constantly, talks (or rather coos) a lot & loves to stand up while being held. She's really beginning to grab at things she finds interesting & they typically end up in her mouth. Occassionaly, a fist full of my hair ends up in her hand which feels great. Unhooking that tight grip of hers can be a challenge. Speaking of challenges, the past couple of nights Reagan has woken up shortly after being put down for the night. She cries & acts like she wants to go to bed, eats & the goes right to sleep...for 45 minutes to an hour. Then she wakes up all bright-eyed & smiley. I'm hoping that this is just a temporary set back. Tonight she got fussy right before bed & ate & went right to sleep. Here's to hoping that she gets a good nights rest!

13 & 14 WEEkS

Reagan is now 14 weeks old & is a super happy, smiley baby. She loves to stand up when she's being held & wobbles around & makes all kinds of different facial expressions. She very expressive & is on the verge of laughing but at the moment only giggles a little bit. This past Tuesday (7/7/09), Reagan rolled over from her tummy to her back for the first time. I missed it b/c I was in the bathroom putting away her bath towels, but my mom saw her do it. She hasn't rolled over again yet, but she gets real close. She babbles & coos quite a bit now & really seems to enjoy talking to me in the middle of breast feeding. She looks up at me & smiles & coos & is rather distracted from eating. Reagan is sleeping really well at night; she goes for about 6 hours when she's first put to sleep. Naps are getting better during the day I think b/c I've gotten her on more of a regular schedule so she knows what to expect. Here are a few photos from Reagan's first 4th of July & from her grandma's recent visit:
