The O'Donnells

Reese and I hosted a Royal Wedding party for some of our girlfriends. The girls slept over on the 28th and we all got up at 4 in the morning to watch the festivities. It was VERY fun. We decorated, made yummy treats and learned that the fanciest hats are called fascinators.

(yes, that is the nfl draft on the tv. it was taken the night before!)

Reese Eats

Reese started with rice cereal this week. She wasn't sure what to think about it.

Then....she grabbed the spoon and wouldn't let go

And by the end she had an appropriately messy (happy!) face!

Reese - FIVE MONTHS

Just after Easter, Reese turned 5 months old! She is growing and changing so quick. Here are some things about Reese right now:

* She is about ready to eat, showing a lot of interest when we do and even mimicking chewing

* She weighs 15.5 pounds and is 26 inches

* She grabs everything and reaches for toys and bottles

* She has a VERY loud voice. She will talk and talk at full volume

* She started day care just one day a week and seems to love it. The other little kids love Baby Reese and she is very entertained by them. She has a good memory from week to week too, remembering everyone there and offering big smiles when she sees them again

Easter

We had a great time celebrating Reese's first Easter. I was especially excited to coordinate our family outfits. As Colleen noted, even Reese's bunny had a matching ribbon. :) We enjoyed breakfast, finding her Easter basket, church and dinner with the O'Donnells.
