Fast forward...

Yes, it's true. I haven't updated this blog since the girls were 4 months old. But that's because I'm a great mom who has time for nothing but loving her children, right? Right?? It can't possibly be a ridiculous amount of procrastination, can it?

Since I'd have a hard time updating you on the last 18 months in a single post, I'm just going to fast forward to the present. I'll try to catch up on the in-between later.

The girls are 22 months old now. I can't believe they're almost two!!

Reagan is picking up new words every day. She narrates playtime, dinnertime, bedtime, bathtime, EVERYTHING! She may only know a few words in each category, but she manages to have a whole conversation with those words. She loves to play with her dolls. She really is a nurturer. She feeds them, rocks them, washes them, sings to them and tucks them in. She is also a nurturer to Kieran. If Kieran is upset, Reagan will find a pacifier or Kieran's blankie and hand them to her with a loving look and a, "Here you go, baby!"

Kieran got her first haircut a few weeks ago! She screamed and cried. She was momentarily distracted by a sucker and some bubbles, but then the blow dryer came out! She was not a happy camper. I hope no one else in the salon was getting their first haircut while we were there. She would've frightened them off, for sure! After she was done, I gave her a quick snuggle and she spent the rest of the day checking herself out in the mirror.

In case you're wondering, I think Reagan will be ten before she needs her hair cut. She's still almost bald on the sides, but she could have a really nice mohawk!
