Grandpa & Uncle Matt Visit on Reagan's 6 Month Birthday!

Grandpa Tom (Dan's Dad) & Uncle Matt came to visit Reagan for her 6 Month Birthday!!! They played, they sang, they ate at Moe's...a very good birthday indeed!

DADDY'S HOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

As of August 1st, Dan came home for good! He has been all over the world since May, but mainly in Indianapolis. We have seen him a few times, as you have seen if following this blog, but we missed him so much! He will be starting classes for his 2nd year of his MBA degree at Duke in September. Until then, he has and will be watching Reagan for most of August. She is such a Daddy's Girl! It was as if he never left!

Oma & Jess Visit!

The day after Reagan and I returned from Minnesota, Oma (Daniel's mother) & Jess (Mike's, Dan's brother, girlfriend) came to play with Reagan while I worked. They stayed 2 days, and I am not sure who had more fun!

Minnesota Trip - Part 4 (Professional Pictures)

Since it is so rare that we all get together, my Mom had a photographer, Dan Brown, come to take pictures of our whole family. As a special treat, we also took photos of Reagan too! The white outfit was her Great Grandfather's Baptismal outfit! Thank you Mom for a great gift that we will treasure!

Minnesota Trip - Part 3 (Minnesota - The Land of 10,000 Lakes!)

Reagan experienced not only her first boat ride but also her first dip in the lake! Mom & Larry's pontoon ride was the perfect way to relax and to put Reagan to sleep in the afternoon. It was beautiful weather as Larry played Jimmy Buffett on his boat!

Minnesota Trip - Part 2 (Meeting New Family!)

The very best part of the trip was seeing all of my brothers and their families, and introducing them to my baby girl! Her cousins were so excited to meet her, especially the other girl, Isabel. Isabel was so great with her, playing and reading to her during the entire trip!
