...is definitely an adjustment! My little Reagan is such a good napper and sleeper which is making this transition much easier on me! It's so crazy how much I didn't know with Marshall that I learned and am now putting into practice with Reagan. She is officially 9 days old today and we are going on a great schedule already. I actually had an hour and half yesterday to myself while both kiddos were napping! I still can't get over the fact that I have 'kids'...plural!
I need to take some more pictures of her this week as you can't really see her cute face in these.
I love the ones with her and Marshall. Marshall loves his little sis...however, he doesn't quite know his strength vs. hers yet so we try to keep him away from her unless I'm right there:)
I'll try and post more pics soon!

Reagan Noel Porter...
...is finally here! She was born Monday May 18th at 2:22pm, weighing in at 9 pounds 3 ounces and 20.5 inches long! And what a different entry to the world she made from her brother Marshall. My labor with Marshall was 26hours long, with almost 3 hours of pushing and an epidural that didn't work. Reagan's labor was about 6 hours long, a GREAT epidural and 10 MINUTES of pushing! All in all it was a great experience and we are loving our little girl!
She is a great sleeper so I'm feeling pretty good. My mom is here this weekend which is amazing! I'll update more later but wanted to get these pics up for you to see!
Marshall loved helping bring baby Ra-Ra home!

The Countdown!
Had another doctor's appointment today as I'm just shy of 38 weeks and he said the baby's head is engaged! Yay! We made another appt for next week unless I go into labor on my own before that! Which is my hope of course:) We shall see when this little one is ready to enter the world...my mom thinks she'll be on her own time schedule!
I'm getting a little sentimenal about the reality that these are my last days of it just being Marshall and I during the day. I'm hoping to be able to do some special things with him this week. Tonight I made milkshakes with special straws! Very messy but very fun!
Also wanted to show you the pic of the outside of our house! We are still absolutely loving it and I'm so thankful that we got to move when we did.
Lastly my dad came down to Salem to visit last week and I snapped this pic of the boys watching Matt mow the lawn! Too precious!
Okay the next post you hear from me might be via my husband in the hospital but we'll keep ya posted!
