All I want for Christmas...

Guess who made an appearance at Dad's work Christmas party? That's right, Santa. I made sure he knew I want a new Barbie for Christmas.

Even though the list of things I want changes every day, I can't wait for Christmas to come. We have a chain counting down the days and I love to rip off each of the links. Now hopefully I've been good enough all year for it to pay off.

My first day of school started out harder than I expected. Mommy had to drag me out of bed earlier than I've been up in years. I expected Mommy to be sad(mostly she can't accept I am growing up), but Gavin wanted to go with me. We have always been together from the time he was born so this was difficult for both of us.



Once I was at school I was very excited. I couldn't wait to meet all the new kids showing up for class. At one point I forgot Mom and Dad were there. When Mom picked me up and wanted to know how my day went I had to tell her the most important part... I had chocolate milk for lunch. Mom NEVER buys chocolate milk and now I can have it whenever I want. So far this school thing seems like an okay deal.

Time for a trim

My hair has grown quite long. Mom said when it reaches your behind, its time to get it cut.

I wanted to chop it off like Mommy's but Dad wouldn't allow it.

I held very still while 3 inches fell to the ground. This was a very fun experience and I can't wait to go back for a trim.




Adorable right?

Another year... another injury

The Old Navy dressing room door and I had a little scuffle. If you think this looks bad, you should see the door. Sure it hurt, but I was very brave. After a minor melt down and TLC from Mom and Dad I was back to playing in no time. Maybe next time I will skip the flip flops.

Happy Birthday!

Hard to believe I am already 5 years old. Where does the time go? I woke up to find a new bike and opened my other presents. Mom and Dad also gave me a Hannah Montana T-shirt, headbands and a note pad. I had asked for a "Barbie" cake for weeks and guess what, I got it! After breakfast we rode bikes to the park. We played so hard we could barely ride home. Great Grandma Graves sent me $5, and Grandma/pa Graves sent me $20 so we went shopping. I bought the Mariposa Barbie (can you tell I love Barbie?) and a Barbie movie. I am still waiting for my party with Gavin but all in all, it was a great birthday.

My Recital

These are pictures from my last day of dance class, the dress rehersal and my recital. Even though I am sad for another season to end, I can't wait for school and all the new things to come.

Reagan says the "darndest" things!

We were sitting patiently in the pew waiting for church to begin. Daddy drew a car on the magna-doodle and I was "adding" all the details he missed. I drew circles for headlights, doors, tread on the tires and a circle on the rear fender. When my dad asked what it was, I replied "the gas station hole stilly". We laughed so hard we nearly fell out of the pew. I am notorious for saying entertaining things and this was just another moment I flabbergasted my parents with what escaped my mouth.

Easter

Easter is so fun. I love my new dress, the candy and pretty eggs. I told quite the story to mom and dad on the way to church. I thought I would share it with all of you. Last night when everyone was sleeping I saw the Easter Bunny. I petted his white tail and he gave me some candy. Happy Easter everyone!

MY LIFE SO FAR...

As you can see I have grown quite a bit. I hope you enjoy these pictures of my first 4 years.

Today was a hard day. I had to get my immunizations for kindergarten. I was very brave and only cried on the thrid poke. Daddy said I was so good we could get ice cream. I picked out a cotton-candy creation with gummi bears and sprinkles. I sure do love Cold Stone.
