Reese's First Sleepover...

Reese had her first sleepover a couple weeks ago and she did really well! This was definitely a girls party.... 7 little cousins and then my sister, mom, and I. We first went to Kangaroo Zoo in Ogden and the girls had a blast. It is just a bunch of blow up toys everywhere so the girls came out a sweaty mess.

I was afraid that Reese wouldn't sleep well because she has only slept in her crib, but around 8:30, she grabbed her blanket and crawled up on my chest and was ready to go to bed. So I put her in the pack n play and she was out for the night. I was the one that couldn't sleep. ( I really like my own bed) Isla woke up a bunch of the girls at 6:00am, so the girls were playing with their flashlights at 6:00am. Reese was a crawling zombie. We don't get up at 6:00 at our house:) Then we had green pancakes, green milk, green grapes, and kiwi's for breakfast (St. Patty's Day.)  Reese was so tired the rest of the day and went to sleep around 5:30pm and woke up at 9:00am. This girl needs her sleep!

Isla & Reese

My sister has had to work on Fridays the past couple of weeks and so we have got to watch Isla lately and it has been so much fun! Reese is loving it! Reese watches Isla like a hawk and tries to do everything that Isla does, which probably attributes to Reese's constant summersaults. They are so cute together and I am always entertained. The night before we were chosen to adopt Reese, we had posted some new pictures of Ron and I holding Isla when she was a baby.  It just so happens that the caseworker in Michigan who's responsibility it was to choose the adoptive couple for Reese, saw the picture of us with a little black baby and felt like Reese belonged to us. Coincidence? I think not!! Both of these precious little girls are supposed to be in our family and have brought us so much joy!

 I could see the wheels turning in Reese's head of all that they could accomplish together.
