R-E-G-A-N
Thanks Grandma Sheri and Hunter!
The girls had an absolute wonderful time these last 3 days playing with Grandma Sheri and Hunter while mommy and daddy went to work. Regan loved having her own "personal assistant" aka Hunter! No one, not even Grandma, could do anything for her! Hunter even had to take Regan to the bathroom; (un)lucky girl!

A sign there has been too many presents...
Santa finally paid a visit last night while we were sleeping. Unfortunately, Regan was pretty much "presented out" and woke up this morning, took one look at the presents under the tree to acknowledge Santa had been here, and then polietly asked to watch cartoons!! After about an hour she was ready to see what was in those packages; lucky for us it was enough time to get some Caribou coffee first :) Sidney was more excited this time than Regan, but we finally opened everything and now it's time to play!
Merry Christmas!
We spent Christmas in New Ulm with family and had a wonderful time. The girls got way too many toys and clothes! They were very appreciative of them; Regan loves her new remote control tonka tractor (thanks Papa!) and Sidney's favorite is definately the bear kicking gym (thanks Grandparents Friederich!). When Regan first started opening her presents, she was so excited she could hardley stand still; she even accidently opened uncle Jon's present! Opps (sorry about that). Once we were 1/2 way through, she had enough and we had to beg her to open the rest; she just wanted to play with what she had.
My First Haircut
Regan had her very first haircut on Friday. I cried my eyes out and it didn't help when Ashley said "there goes the hair she was born with"! I survived and she did such a good job sitting nicely for aunt Vicky. She was definately a little nervous and asked to hold mom's hand, but by the end, she let go of mom's hand on her own and sat just like a big girl! It certainly helped to have Hunter making silly faces for her; we all got a good laugh!

Merry Christmas!
Picture this song being sung by a sweet two year old (aka Regan)
We wish you a Merry Christmas
We wish you a Merry Christmas
We wish you a Merry Christmas
And a happy to you!
Over and over we've tried to teach her the real words to the song but she insists she is right, so now we all sing it that way.
MERRY CHRISTMAS EVERYONE!

PICTURES!
A friend of mine has started her own photography business (http://www.createdbymephotography.com/) and asked to take pictures of the girls for her website. We were so excited to see the results and share them with everyone! The pictures are adorable!

3 months old
Sidney turned 3 months old today! Unfortunately, that meant it was also my first day back to work. With the support of wonderful friends, family and co-workers, I made it through the day. It helped tremendously to know that the girls were safe at home with daddy, plus he even brought them to work for lunch so I got to feed Sidney! I came home and they were all in one piece and both their happy selves so I guess we're going to be alright with my return to work. If only there was a way to work from home.
Oh yea, and dad made it through his day in one piece too; he was VERY worried he wouldn't be able to handle two kids! Although he did leave shortly after I got home and headed downtown (not that he needed a drink, but Oasis is in town).

More stories
We're figuring out how to manage storytime with two kids. Both girls are very interested in reading books, although unfortunately, Regan has graduated into longer books with more words and real pages whereas Sidney prefers shorter books. Once she starts grabbing the pages, those real ones are going to rip.

Giggles
Sidney gets the giggles these days and they are so cute. We caught this video after she ate and had the hiccups. Those hiccups make her giggles even cuter!

Handfuls of fun!
Don't they look so cute! Tonight we went for dinner and the couple at the table next to us was remembering their days with little kids. They had to laugh at the sight of us, me holding Sidney and Ryan entertaining and holding Regan all while trying to finish our meals! We laughed at them because they told us their nerves as their kids are now driving. I think I prefer this stage over the teenage years :)
