I am amazed how much Reagan and Nolan have changed in 14.5 weeks.
Reagan doesn't bang on her drum and scowl anymore, her fists are open more now and she has found her fingers. She sucks the index and middle at the same time. She can hold her head up very well, much more in the last week.
Nolan is laughing and coo'ing all the time. He is also starting to push himself around with his legs. He loves to play with his hands and is starting to notice his toes.
Nicknames we have for the kids.....
Reagan: Sweetpea, Babycake(s), Peanut, Little Bear (she growls sometimes)
Nolan: Little Man, Buddy, Monkey, Monk

Movin' On Up!
I was already emotional because I was reading this blog from when I was 7 months pregnant when the phone rang. It was Bill and he said "You ready to move!"
My kids will go to the same school I went to, we will live 1/2 mile from my mom, I'll be across the street from the library I spent most of my youth at! Why am I crying?!?!?!!? Our current house has so many memories that it will be so hard to leave that all behind. I know we need the space and the kids need a better neighborhood, but I can look at the exact spot on the living room floor where Bill and I shared our first kiss, the spot in the living room that he put my engagement ring around Chandlers neck and they asked me to marry them, the spot between the hallway and the living room where I answered the phone to the news that I was pregnant and my numbers were so high it was probably more than 1 baby, the spot in the bedroom where my babies slept for the first time. All these will have to live in my heart when we leave. We've had a lot of great times in this house. Some sad times too that I'll be happy to leave behind like my mom calling to tell me my Dad passed away.
It is on to bigger and better things for the Polewchak family.

1st time in 12 weeks
On Friday Reagan and Nolan didn't sleep in our room. We brought down one of their cribs and set it up in the office since the AC doesn't work too well in their room. They LOVE their crib! Lasgt night they slept almost 7 hours.
I had a very hard time walking them out of our room after their night bottle and putting them down in their own "room." It was the first of many seperations I'm sure, but it was tough. My babies are growing so fast and they looked so big in that crib.
They really are excelelnt babies. There have been a few fits now and then, but for the most part they are a dream. We take them everywhere and they do so well. I can't say it enough, but I am so lucky.
Nolan had his doctor appt today for his cyst. He has to have an ultrasound and then a recheck at 6 months. He will have surgery when he is about a year to remove it. He was such a good boy, no tears at the appointment (Nolan or Mommy.)

For Sale
Today we put our house on the market. The sign really makes me sad. I think it is really bothering Bill too. We've had almost 9 years worth of memories here..... our first kiss, getting engaged, finding out we were expecting, bringing Reagan and Nolan home..... all life changing things that happened in these walls. I know you take the memories in your heart, but it is going to be very difficult leaving here.
Reagan and Nolan will be 12 wks tomorrow. Time is just flying. Nolan laughs out loud and smiles all the time. Reagan makes you work for it, but it is so worth it. She has dimples on both cheeks and she just lights up when she smiles. They are such good kids and we can take them most anyplace and they do really well.
