So last week, Nana Sherrill came out for a visit starting on Monday.  She spoiled Reagan as usual and bought her a potty as we had been talking about the fact she sometimes says “poo poo” before she poops.  Tonight we tried it out before her bath and she pottied in it!  Every time I take her diaper off before her bath, unless I get her in to the tub within a couple minutes, she’ll potty on the floor.  So tonight we put her on the potty and had to make her sit a couple times before she finally pottied.  Hopefully after doing this for several nights and weeks, she’ll get the gist of it and be ready to train in a couple months!

While Nana was here, Parker and cousin Jackson flew in for a visit.  It was Jackson’s first visit to Ca. and he seemed to have fun.  Mike took him fishing on Thursday where he caught a fish.  It was his first time out on the boat.  He and Reagan had a great time playing and she really enjoyed his company it seemed.  On Friday we went to see Papa Mike and Nonna.  Papa Mike is really doing a lot better since his surgery several weeks ago.  He seemed more energetic and played with Reagan and two games of Pinochle with us.  Nonna and Reagan had fun talking and yelling and squealing.  On Saturday it was Madison’s baby shower and that little girl is so loved!  She received so many sweet and great gifts.

On Saturday afternoon we went to San Francisco to see the Contis.  We met them at Chili’s for dinner and then stayed the night in the same hotel room.  Poor Joey had a fever and wasn’t quite his happy self that night but was very sweet with Reagan as she kept kissing him!  He was happier the next day, playing and talking with her.  It was awesome to see our kids play together!  On Sunday Mike and John went to the 49er game while the rest of us hung out at the hotel and Golden Gate park.  We had lunch at a cliffside cafe with a fantastic view of the ocean, even though it was overcast.  On Sunday night we drove home, happy but tired.

Mike is at Clear lake now, he left Friday morning.  His tournament starts on the 21st, so keep your fingers crossed!
