Coming up with titles is annoying.

I am blaming my lack of blogging on several things.

1. I haven't been feeling well this week. My allergies are in full swing. Luckily, it's starting to get better.

2. No one at the Collins' household has been sleeping well. Reyna has been getting up (except for last night) due to her little molars popping thru on the bottom. Poor babe!

3. I am just plan LAZY. I haven't had the ambition to plop myself down in front of the computer. Sitting on the couch with a controller in my hand is way better.

Anyway, enough excuses. It's funny because I was going to post on Monday on how the weekend went, but now I might as well post and let you all know what I am doing this upcoming weekend. Last weekend is definitely old news already.

Friday, Jade and I are going to a movie. Now, I cannot tell you the last time we went and saw a movie at the theatre. It's been forever! I think we are going to see Forgetting Sarah Marshall. It looks funny and he wasn't completely sold on seeing Made of Honor. I guess I'll be renting that one.

Saturday, I am heading over to Ann Arbor to spend the day with my cousin, Kristin. She hasn't seen Reyna lately, so we are meeting for lunch, shopping and playtime for Reyna. The last time I was at Urban Toddler, Reyna was itty bitty. This time, she should have fun.

Sunday, we have no plans. I need to get my pond going. I think I mentioned that last post too. Well, it has yet to be done. See, I told you I have been lazy. I did manage to buy some new landscaping bricks to put around it. Maybe that will motivate me a little.

Other news?

I took Reyna for her 15 months appt. last week. Let me just say, she has come to recognize the doctor's office. She played in the waiting room, they called her name and then all hell broke loose. She started crying when we entered the room. I undressed her, cuddled with her, they tried to weigh her and measure her and you would have thought they were pulling her teeth out. It was very dramatic. She is weighing in at 18 lbs. 10 oz. and is 30 inches long. That puts her into the 3% for weight and 50% for height. Too funny.

At fifteen months Reyna:

Sleeping well...except when she is cutting teeth

Eating everything. She is definitely not picky.

Loves to read. Her latest fave. Goodnight Gorilla. There isn't many words in this book. I have been making up parts and she giggles everytime we get to the part where all the animals in the zoo keepers room say, "good night." I just melt everytime I hear her giggling like that.

Saying lots of words. The biggest one right now is "uh-oh." Everything is "uh-oh." Today, I was carrying her in from outside and she kept saying, "uh-oh." I kind of just ignored her since I always hear it. Well, she had lost her shoe. It fell off in the back yard and that is why she kept saying it. I guess she was trying to tell me something.

Loves our cat still. I think the feelings are mutual most of the time.

Is becoming quite the daddy's girl. Last night, she cried when he handed her to me for bedtime. I handed her back and daddy had to do bedtime.

Loves to be outdoors. I don't think this chica is going to be girly girl at all. She could play outside all day.

Is having a ball with shapes and putting them in the right spot. Remember this? She loves it. My mom bought her one a while ago and she loves to put the shapes into the correct hole.

Well, I hope everyone else is having a good week. :)

OMG- Grace weighs more than Reyna and she is 9 month old! I will go see Made of Honor with you, my husband won't go either. What's not to like about McDreamy, right?
