Sisters and Auntie time

My last week of maternity leave has flown by. Zoey was due 3 months ago today. Wow. She is such a smiley talkative lil girl. She talks alot more then Reegan, which is kinda scary. On Friday, the girls took their first bath together...kinda...


Reegan sure thought it was pretty cool. Then later that day Reegan and I headed to Minneapolis to pick up Auntie Molly ( finally!) Living across the road from my parents, we are very spoiled in getting to see family alot, but its been a long school year. We have been waiting for Molly and Shannon to come home. At U of M, we ate lunch at Noodles and Company, and Reegan was amazed at the BIG BUS! Or every bus that went past, which is alot on a school campus. She would point to the window and yell.... BIG BUS! Everybody around us would laugh or smile. Of course, Reegan remembers Molly, and couldn't wait for her to come home for the summer. Zoey on the other hand, probably doesn't.


I have no doubt that by the end of summer when Molly goes back to school, Zoey will know her. And she will be over 6 months old :( So we'll just enjoy the summer, with Aunties. Hurry home Shannon!!

Last time, On " A day in the life of the Kulzer girls".......

Cannot believe its been a whole week since I last updated. Cannot say much has happened, but lets see. Zoey sat in the bumbo a few times


Curt worked on the back yard project, and got some good progress done.............




And the climber arrived! This swingset has been a part of the Casey family, then the Kulzer family, and now our Kulzer family. Well, when its all put together and sanded and stained.



Cousin Cam and Auntie Erin came and visited!!



I made spagetti for the family. And you know the riddle. If you give a toddler spagetti, 




You have to give him a bath!! Cousins had fun!! And Reegan has been asking about Cam or Tom as it sounds like. We both wish they lived closer!!



 We fed Zoey some rice cereal for the first time last night! She thought is was a little weird, and waited for the bottle/

 And today, with the warm weather we decided it would be a great time for Zoey to hit the pool for the first time! 5-10-11





We also had our pictures taken last week after we won a Cutest baby contest on Facebook. The pictures are cute, despite having a sassy redhead that didn't want to smile!!

Just another Manic Monday lunch.............

Happy Monday

Curt is busy outside working in his mud pit, and the girls and I have been cleaning windows, which Reegan is very good at, and playing. Curt spend some time with the girls before he headed out and they were playing with Elmo and Ernie, and having a dance party chanting " Shake that booty" So he taught her that phrase.

Well now that he is outside, Reegan is making everyone "Shake that booty!" Barbies, Tucker the dog, Zoey, Mama....you name it. Shake your booty...............


Reegan wanted to say hi to the blog world to cheer up certain people's monday. She decided to be shy (?) but then starting hamming it up. So its about 3 mins long, but listen for your shout out ( Livi, Molly, Allie, and Shannon)

Reegan is trying to put the cats in timeout, and for those of you that know my cats, THATS going well. And Zoey was super chatty this last night, so here is some video of that!


Have a wonderful Monday! And tacos.........

1st birthday party

This afternoon we went to Curt's cousin's daughters 1st birthday party. Cute lil Madison turned 1.

There were balloons...........
And personalized lil birthday cake for the birthday girl.............


and lots of family and friends.........


And a happy birthday girl who loved her cake!

And the Kulzer girls in matching outfits.........

Which made me think of 2 things.
1) Zoey is never going to have a first birthday party. She will always be this itty bitty lil thing and never walk or sass me or devour cake. Hopefully she abides by this rule. I cannot imagine her at 1! :(

2) Seems like yesterday we were enjoying Reegan's 1st birthday party. And yet a month from today she will be 2. TWO! Oh my. Reminds me how times flies. And sad at the same time. They are growing too fast. Better get working on 2nd birthday party details. Reegan was so excited after Madisons party today. I asked her if she wanted to have a birthday party and she said YES!!! And proceeded to sing Happy Birthday to herself. Yup, 2.

Happy Birthday Madison.

a few videos

This week was a week of healing for me. My belly continues to be sore, and we have been doing things around the house. Yesterday Curt started major work out back ripping up the yard, make it flat, moving the fence just along the pool, and then we will put in a patio and the swing set. Right now it is alot of mud with the current rain we are recieving.

But in the last week or so Zoey has decided she is a morning baby. She tries to start our day at about 5am, and is all smiles and chatter. I really felt guilty last night realizing that I hadn't taken any video of Zo this week. I try to take as much video and pics of Zo as I did with Reegs. But this morning as I was trying to capture smiley Zoey, I realized why. I get a jealous Reegan as soon as I start filming. Drinks were spilled, baby hugged tight and so on as I tried to film. But alas, I did get one ok video.


Zoey got this wonderful teddy bear for Easter from her Uncle Tyler, and she has fallen in love with this bear. She talks to her, and grabs on, and becomes all smiles. I usually introduce a animal a day to her, but she really likes this one! Thanks Uncle Ty!
*of note, this video was taken with my new flip cam

And last but not least, a fun video of Reegan riding her bike from last Saturday. She is so proud of being able to ride her bike!!

Well I am off to a scrapbook bridal shower, leaving the girls at home with dad. Just what the girls, and I need :)

Have a great weekend!!

Easter

Happy Wednesday!!

Easter was this past Sunday. And after misplacing my SD card with the photos on it, I figured I would post some pics. Late, but better then never!!




The dresses stayed on for a whole 10 minutes, before we changed Reegs into normal clothes. It was too nice outside not to play! She got shovels, and pails, and had to play in the rocks. I am taking the girls for pictures May 4th, and they will be wearing the dresses. Overall Easter was pretty low key. Wish we could have made it to church, but God knows we prayed.

I ended up having my Gallbladder removed Thursday night, and am on the mend. Curt went back to work Tuesday, but had a rain day today. So he is outside doing yard work, and I am getting some overdue spring cleaning done. It would be better if it were 60 and we have the windows open. But instead it keeps snowing. Lovely.
Happy snow brings May ??

Have a good Wednesday!

Reegan gives the look

Reegan: She who rules, or little king.
Boy, does that name ever fit her. She is pretty sure she rules our roost. Its the weirdest thing looking at her sometimes, I see myself back in the day, via home videos. Minus the red hair. But she has something I never had.....comedic timing.
