Well, Reagan's big day finally came and went. It started out with a visit from the birthday fairy, who left a bunch of balloons in her room overnight!
Reagan was so excited, she didn't know what to do!
She insisted on taking one to breakfast with her.
We spent a quiet morning hanging out and getting ready for the party. Frosting the cupcake cake took me a while!
Grace and Gigi (Lance's mom) came over to play in the afternoon, and Grace loved Reagan's new toys (thank you, garage sales).
...and we spent a while decorating. Thanks to Stuart for the awesome streamers!
Then it was time! Reagan got her special birthday outfit on.
Daddy came home and brought her flowers, which she tried her best to eat.
The presents were ready:
And the other guests arrived!
(not pictured: Reagan's aunt, cousin, and uncle)
First we played outside for a little
Then we had dinner, which was delayed a little after a slight mishap with the propane for the grill. No worries- lots of fruit to keep us busy in the meantime!
Then it was time for presents! The singing card from Aunt Meagan was a big hit.
It was hit-or-miss with Reagan and the presents- she just couldn't sit still for that long!
After a brief mental breakdown...
....we forged on.
I'm not sure what she's doing here...diving after something?
Has a baby ever been more loved?
Finally, I finished up the presents.
What a pile of loot- thanks everyone!
And of course, we saved the best for last. Cake! I made Reagan a mini triple layer cake.
It took me a lot longer to make it than it took her to shred it. See for yourself.
At her doctor's appointment this morning, she measured in at 19.3 lbs and 29.2 inches. That's 20th/60th percentile. Tall and skinny!
And to finish things up, here are a couple pictures from her photo shoot a couple weeks ago. She had such a great birthday. We're so glad for family and friends that made our baby's day extra special!
