It was a one eyed-one horned-flying purple people eater!

Good evening friends and family on this fine Hallows Even.   The Napier house is dark and quiet.  The little pumpkin is fast asleep and the furry goblins are barely stirring. Good night to all and to all a good night! ...wait..hmmm.http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Halloween

Daddy before his haircut....hmmm. When will Reya's first haircut be?

Working out the kinks

no really...I'm working out the kinks while I have a little time on my hands.  Thanks for your patience :) And isn't she adorable!!

1,2,3,4 tell me that you need me more

I hurry home to find my little angel sound asleep... But it's ok we've got the weekend! Yay!!

Dream sweet dreams for me

As B slowly puts together a car/walker...in hot pink no less, I struggler to stay awake at this late hour.  Sad but true.  Waking up at 5:45 a.m. five days a week is taking its tole.  I'm sure I will get used to it sooner that later.  Or maybe I'm turning into a bear ready to hibernate for of the winter.  Which ever the case may be this 36 year old mommy is ready for bed.  Reya is sound asleep and all I can think of is joining her.  I am looking forward to the weekend.  Haircuts are at the top of my 'to do' list!

Everybody's workin for the weekend...

So this weekend seemed particularly short.  I'm not even sure what happened to Saturday.  I guess it was because I wasn't feeling very well and did much of nothing.  In Reya news, she is getting her third tooth in and didn't have a great day today.  She did have intervals of smiles and giggles, especially for Daddy.  They have a really close relationship, if you didn't already know that.  She pretty much understands everything he says, and tries to emulate him as much as she can.  We were sitting around the living room and B just said the words to a song that plays on one of her toys and she immediately went over and played it for him.   We all smiled together in that moment.

The best is yet to come

So I saw a glimmer of Reya's walking abilities tonight.  As I sat in the play yard with her, as I do most every night, I stood up to make her last bottle before bed time and she stood up with me.  She grabbed my legs with her chubby little hands and took a step towards me.  I decided to take a step back, and she took a step forward towards me, again. We did this little dance one full turn around her play yard and she didn't miss a beat!  All the time she was looking down at our feet moving together. What a great way to end the day. Lately I find myself thinking that everyday is the best day ever!  Thank you Reya!

In the begining.....

This is a blog about our baby and the people that love her:
I have been thinking about creating this blog for well, about 18 months.  I just got re-inspired by a friend on Facebook and I would like to thank her for that. Today Reya just happens to be 9 months old.  I will post some new pictures soon.  For my new inspiration in life .... Reya, I celebrate you!
