Reagan's Birthday!

Reagan is 6!!!

My 2nd born child, Reagan James Mallicoat, turned 6 today, February 11, 2009. It amazes me at how quickly the time seems to go by. I remember watching him come out of me, and now he is so big and active.

He has such a tender heart and is so thoughtful of others. He is also going through a very sensitive stage right now.He is in love with the new baby. Multiple times a day he comes over and gives my belly a hug and a kiss and tells the baby how much he loves it and how he can't wait for it to come out so he can cuddle with it. At night the baby always gets a goodnight hug and kiss. He is so excited that he will be the one who gets to sit by the baby in the car, he just wants to help so much.

This year has been so much fun with him. His sense of humor has really developed, he enjoys playing jokes on people and is starting to tell jokes. Reagan loves to play games and read books. He is able to sound out many words, and will be all out reading very soon. He is very creative and loves to make up and tell stories.

This past year he has been taking gymnastics, played t-ball, took swimming lessons, wrestled, and took writing classes with our homeschool program. He learned to ride his bike without training wheels last summer, and LOVES to ride his bike.

Reagan also enjoys playing with the neighborhood kids, and they are teaching him about playing football. He is looking forward to warmer weather when they can all be outside playing again.
