2 years old, St George escape, and Bye Bye Binki

She's officially 2 years old and she's so fun!! We decided to escape and take a trip to St George for her big day. Nick and I both had some time off and 2 of my brothers were able to join us. It was so nice to get away and Reece sure enjoyed the company-Thanks:) We decided that since we had some time off to be with her that we'd take the plunge and eliminate the binki -Happy Birthday Sweetie. I started to cut off the tip and the she ripped the rest off and it seemed to work. She still asked for it at first but when she got it she looked at it and ..."it broken", and put it down. After a day or two she stopped asking for it altogether. She's such a big girl. She even went potty in the toilet for the first time while we were there. We were outside down the street and she said she needed to go so we hurried back and I put her on and she went. So proud of her. Hasn't really done much since we've been home but still slowly attempting.  As for her birthday I decided to attempt at some Minnie mouse cookies because she is a fan. I thought they turned out pretty cute;) 

Singing 'Happy to you Reece'. (Her version:) Such a cutie

Opening some gifts, She woke up and saw them on the chair and said I want more presents, a new toy and book. Smart woman:)

 

Sporting her new Minnie jammies

 

We were going to try and hit a water park while were her there for her but the weather was either little too hot or too windy so we opted for playing in the hose. Her and Brightyn enjoyed it. She also got a bubble blower that I missed pictures of but they liked playing in the water with the bubbles:) It was a but

 

 She managed to never leave Danny and Carly alone. Even when they were trying to cuddle on the couch. In comes Reece to look at pictures on the phone and enjoy some mopforn (popcorn)

 

She couldn't wait to go for a run in her stroller. She loves relaxing in it but it was a little warmer for her than here but still beautiful:) 

On a side note, we purchased a new ride, a Ranger. She ABSOLUTELY LOVES it! She'll talk about it daily and getting stuck in the snow and getting muddy. She could ride all day if we let her. She's such a good girl:)

 Stopped in to visit Cousin Kendall at Papa Reed's house. The Fisher genes aren't dominant at all:)

Before we left Reece and I decided to put some use to our old bread and feed the ducks a first dam. She loved it.!! 

 Eating a piece between the throws. She must have been a little hungry:)

 Isn't she the cutest ever:)

Reading some good material with Grandma Roskelley.

She did have her 2 year well check up and did amazing like always. Just one shop and only cried for a few seconds then the sucker cured all :) She's growing great, 27 pounds (60%), and 33 inches tall (45%) and her head is measure in the 85 percentile but he said it's because she's so smart. Which is so true:) She never ceases to amaze me. She's definately a bright one that we''ll have to watch out for and did I mention independent!!

I know, you'd think she was headed to school she looks so big but no, just church with her supplies to get us through:)

EASTER HUNT

Easter was fun this year with Reece. She's at the best age. She was so excited to find eggs and candy. She'd find some and say, "I find moor, I find moor". So cute. Nick had to work all weekend so he sadly was unable to see her wake up and enjoy the hunt at our house but he got home early and we were able to go to the River Heights Egg Hunt after our nephews baptism. I sadly forgot my camera for that but she enjoyed it:)
Below are a few shots of her finding them around our house. The bunny was smart enough this year to hide them in eggs so that Oli wouldn't eat them-wise old bunny:)



I attempted to make bunny cinnamon rolls for breakfast. The thought was there but she enjoyed them non-the-less.
Along with the candy, her favorite Reece's peanut butter cups of coarse were in the mix, The bunny brought a kite, a pretty dress and a book
We attempted to get the cousin together for a shot in their Easter dresses, emphasis on attempt... I don't think anyone got one good one but the thought was there

Nana had a hunt in her basement for the grandkids and they made quite the hall.
I love the excitement on her face:)

Big Girl Bed

So we've changed over Reece's bed to a toddler bed, or "Big Girl Bed" as we like to call it. She loves it. She'll run right to it in the day and climb on in...in the day:) She's doing ok. She'll climb in after prayers at night but Nick or I have to be by the side of it until she's asleep. And we're lucky enough that in the middle of the night she'll join us. After a few nights she did great and slept straight through, but only for 2 nights :( Then it was back to play. We decided to put an end to it before it got worse. I'd walk her back to her bed and she'd climb in and go back asleep, that is if you were by her bed until she did. A few days ago she officially learned how to open our doors and we don't have locks on them, sadly. I was sleeping and roll over and there she is at the side of the bed with her blanket and glowworm and says, 'I'm awake'. I kindof chuckled and said back to bed and walked her back. So all in all it's going alright minus the midnight interruption that hopefully will die off soon. :)

Just enjoying putting some lotion on her feet-per her request:) she cracks me up

We were able to meet Morgan and Brightyn at the park with Nana for some sliding and swinging. Turned out to be cooler that planned so only really lasted long enough to get a few shots and we were gone :(

She's enjoying dressing up in just about anything she can find. Here she is getting ready to "rock and roll". Yes that is Mickey and Minnie and her phone in had with her snow hat and mittons on:)

She had to drop the mice for a phone call!

She's enjoying galopping around like a horsie

Montant Weekend FUN

Last weekend we went to visit the Haynes' (my sister's family) It was great to be with them. Reece didn't love the car ride so much but it was all worth it for the fun she had with her cousins :) She actually did amazingly well for how long she was in the car over the weekend! Such a trooper. We got there Thursday afternoon and Rach had a delicious dinner ready for us and then we just relaxed and visited while the little ones played. Then Friday we attempted an outing in the town of Missoula. With 4 kids and 3 adults we managed pretty well with only a small casualty along the way:) They surprisingly didn't make us purchase it even though I offered-Loved this shot of them walking hand in hand into Cosco for some scrumptious lunch:) Jaxon enjoyed pushing Reece in the cart while Bridger watched, laughing in the distance-

While we were getting ready that morning they decided to jump in the 'space tub'. Bridger was enjoying sporting the girl's Easter hat

After Jake got off work Friday we drove to Fairfield to his parents ranch. It's was cold and windy but still enjoyable non-the-less.The kiddies enjoying some cheetos-a delicious mid-morning snack
We managed to get a few shots of the girls before a blowout happened.


Reece and Bridger enjoyed taunting the cats. They tried so hard to hide but those two waited patiently for them.

So distraught that she wasn't able to catch one
They were soo funny chasing them around saying, Here kitty kitty kitty:)

I was able to get a shot of Reece laughing hysterically. Jaxon was pushing/ramming her, playing bumper cars in Addi's walker while Bridger watched on the bench belly laughing!! I'm so sad I missed one of him, It was hilarious!

Despite the cold weather we couldn't leave the Ranch without a 4-wheeler ride to see the cows, especially the baby cows:) Reece loved them. The kids didn't last too long due to the wind blowing so strong that they had a hard time breathing but it was fun while it lasted. Later that day we all loaded up in the truck; Rach, Addi, and I in the back and the boys and Reece in the front. Bridger was helping Haynes drive, Jax Man was in the middle and Reece was on Nick's lap. I wish I would have remembered my camera cause it was quite a site. We were creeping through the field while the kids were saying 'MOO' and "Hi Baby Cows" (mostly Reece on that one) She loved it!!! Thanks again. It was a great trip!!
Nick, Jaxon and cows
Rachel and Bridger
