Life with Reagan

I forgot to include Zach in my last update, so let me slip in a quick one... work and working on the house pretty much occupies alllllllll his time. He starts a new job at SF next week, he's looking forward to that. I don't know if this is a testament to our oneness or a new low but we definitely ran into each other in the McDonald's drive thru this morning. Judgment free zone in this case then?

-----------------------

We had our first big snow of the season this past week. Jeez, about time! Reagan and Petey l.o.v.e. playing it... but Reagan might equally love getting the hot chocolate afterwards.

After spending a week at the lake with Grandpa Meiner he developed the habit of saying "oh dear" when something goes wrong. He says this like 15 times a day.


Today, he came up to me and said "You know what my favorite part about you is?" ... "sometimes you let me have food."



Last week was an eventful week at preschool. One of the days they had a field trip where they went bowling and another day was "pancake & pajama's day" (see picture below.)

Sometimes the words he uses makes me do a double take at who I'm talking to. He woke me up last night and said "may I have a refreshment please?" And the other day, we were having dinner with Luba and he asked her "is your car electric or gasoline?"


His favorite books in the entire world are his Busy Town books. If you've ever read them then you know why we refer to them as the long-busy-towns. They've taught him a lot of things. 
A. what hobos are 
B. that lawyer's settle arguments. So now if someone disagrees about something with him he threatens that he's going to get his lawyer. 

Petey finally got a tag, watching it being made seriously made Reagan's morning. He is such a machine/tool man. 

If you ask him if he's going to be a brother he'll tell you I'm "president" not fat.


The biggest number he knows is "69" so he's constantly saying things like "I love you 69 miles" or "I am going to eat 69 jalapeño cheetohs."
