Goats = Puppy

Last night Mitch and I took Reegan to the Blackfoot Fair. Last year he LOVED seeing all the animals and people and he was only a year old. This year was just as fun. He loved to see the animals. My poor kid, he seems to think that goats are puppies!! We went into the barn that has the goats and he just got so excited and yelled, "puppies" over and over again!! He loved the goats when they would stick their heads out of the gates and sniff him. It was a great family event and we are excited for next year. Reegan also called the roosters and chickens all ducks, so we have some work to do!!

Reegan's Toe

Yesterday while we were at work, Reegan dropped a piece of shelf onto his big toe. I had been working on the computer and looked up when he was screaming and he was grabbing his toe and had blood gushing out between his fingers. For anyone who knows me, knows how much I handle that stuff, so I ran over with the bag of wipes, and started to do my best. I called my sister Jessica (who is like my 911 call) and she was on her way. Her son had done a very similar thing a few months ago and I knew she would know what to do for sure. We took Reegan to Community Care, and had to have an X-ray, a numbing shot and stiches. Reegan has busted his toe nail off in the base and its a good thing that we went in, because it is normally for the infection to get out of control when that is the case. It was a long day, but we are finally functioning today. The doctor that stiched Reegan up, put a pink wrap on his foot and sent us home with a purple wrap for the next few days..... DOESN'T HE KNOW THAT REEGAN IS A BOY!! :)

How we have spent our summer

Summer is over.... but it doesn't even seem like we have had a summer. We have spent most of our time working to get into our house by winter. I have had alot of people ask for pictures so here are a few.

Long Day

Mitch and I took off to Jackpot Sunday for the Trace Adkins concert. My in-laws were able to get great tickets, so we took off at noon, drove to Jackpot, played a little blackjack, went to the concert and headed home.... Talk about a LONG day. But we had a great time at the concert and a nice out of our normal routine!

Un-offical winner!

Reegan was told today at the bank, that he was the "un-offical" winner of the cutest kid in the drive thru window. We have to go to the bank almost every day, and he always wants the window down so he can wave and smile at the bank employees. He knows he is going to get smarties, so I am guessing that is why he is so perfect for them. I told the lady today that I agree, and think he is the cutest kid also! So we have a WINNER!

Since I had Reegan, I have worked part time for my parents here in Idaho Falls. I take Reegan with me, and since he was a new born we have graduated from the pack n' play, to a few cars, to now its like the office is a daycare instead of a storage unit office. But over the past 2 years, Reegan has won the hearts of several of our customers. We have a few couples that always come in just to say hello to him, or bring a little gift. Today one of our favorite customers brought Reegan an old antique Radio Flyer bike, with training wheels. The guy and his wife moved here from California and he is retired, but his wife works for the site, so they dont have any grandkids around here to spoil, so he has adopted Reegan. Reegan loves to get on the new bike, but hasn't matered the petals and its to big for him to just push with his feet, but he loves it.

The house is on the way. We had the plumbing and heating started at the end of last week and will have the electrical rough in all done next Tuesday. We are flying right along, and have our fingers crossed for being moved in the first part of October! :)

Random Birthday Pictures

Dallas was a big help opening the presents. He wanted to open them the minute he got to my parents house. He was a big helper! Reegan and Dallas look like they could be brothers, they are both so cute!


Grandma Glenda gave Reegan a frisbee sort of thing, and Reegan was having a great time trying to toss it over the car. He only managed to get it straight in the air or behind him.

Reegan spent most of the day today mowing the apartment carpet. He thought that was the best thing ever. It even makes the lawn mower sounds. (It came with bubbles but I am a mean mom and hide those the second we opened the box.)

Reegan and Mason are only 9 months apart. They are both pretty opinionated about things, but this was one of the peaceful moments between them. They were trying to escape down the drive-way without anyone seeing. Reegan on his bike, Mason with the baby stroller.

Happy Birthday!!

Reegan has turned 2!
We celebrated his birthday with some cake and icecream at my parents house. (since we are in an apartment we would have had to take shifts to have everyone come over! :) )

Reegan was so excited for his new bike that we gave him and was spoiled by everyone in our family. He rode his bike all morning at the office today. What a kid!! I can not believe that he is 2, where has the time gone?
