Growing Up!

Had a dream last night…ok, I have dreams EVERY NIGHT. But every now and then I dream about Reagan-Mostly about milestones in her life that she hasn’t yet reached. The last one I had about her was about her having teeth. She is JUST NOW growing her very first tooth! :o) (and, might I add, it is the CUTEST tooth I have ever seen!!) Well, last night I dreamed that she was running around the house. The start of my dream she couldn’t yet walk, much less run! But it seemed like I sat her down somewhere and then all of a sudden she starts running/waddling towards me.

So, my thoughts this morning are: “Do they REALLY grow up that fast?” It’s so scary to think about it. Today my cousin, well “2nd cousin” turns one. It seems like YESTERDAY that she was born. And then 4 short months later (which felt like ETERNITY) Reagan was here. So that got me thinking even more…MY CHILD IS ABOUT TO BE A ONE YEAR OLD!!!

“Where DOES the time go?” –mom [speaking of my mother I am starting to sound more and MORE like her everyday….what’s that about????]

So as far as Reagan being just shy of 3 months from turning 1 year old…I feel like I haven’t accomplished anything!? I don’t know if ‘accomplished’ was the right word I was looking for, but it’s what came out, soo we’ll go with that. However, I am excited for her birthday because, since her b-day is in the summer, (which I have ALWAYS wanted mine to be) I am throwing her a swimming party. I want to come up with a silly “official” title for it like….”Reagan’s Fishy Escapades” or..something..haha and have a cake designed to fit the theme.

ANYWAYS….I have plenty of time to plan that. I guess!?

Woo-hoo!! Being a mom is so fun! I think I am looking most forward to embarrassing her and acting “cool” when she’s in Jr.high! but really..I don’t have to ACT COOL…b-c I AM COOL!!!!

Wish I would have known about THAT!

During my DAILY RITUAL of reading updated blog posts by my FAVORITE BLOGGERS...I came across one that caught my baby blue eyes! The title of her post, you ask? "Product Review and GIVEAWAY - EcoTOOLS". GiVEAWAY?? REALLY?? YES!! then I thought..."What are EcoTOOLS?? well...APPARENTLY they are economy friendly make-up applicators!...YES, thats right people! MAKE-UP TOOLS ARE GOING GREEN! The BEST PART....Only $6.99 for a blush brush! MAN, I wish I would've known that BEFORE I spent $35 on a brush that wasn't so "green"! :( Oh..well. So here's to hopin' that I totally win the gifts she is giving away! You can read more about the EcoTOOLS Blush Brush product on her blog!
