Reagan got a clean bill-of-health at her Dr.s appointment today. She is 11lbs and 23.5 inches long. That puts her at 52% for weight and 85% for length. Alek is still enjoying being a big brother. He is riding his tricycle and should be on a big boy bike soon. Leslie is working 2 days a week and I am staying home with Reagan. She definitely prefers Momma but does pretty good with me. Hopefully I can get Alek to a water park before the summer is over. We will try to get some new pictures and videos uploaded soon.

Update July 11th, 2008

Baby Reagan and Alek are doing just fine. Reagan is sleeping almost all night and most of the morning, then stays awake pretty much the rest of the day. We went to the Zoo earlier this week and Alek had a great time. We have a pig roast on Saturday night (Mike and Karen) and then brunch with some friends that adopted from Kazakhstan around the same time we did (The Caschette's). Leslie starts back to work 2 days a week starting the 14th. I am going to stay with Reagan those two days. Since she sleeps most of the morning I am hoping to bring her to work for a few hours and then meet Leslie for lunch downtown. Reagans' court date that makes our adoption final has been scheduled for November 6th. I will try to get some new pictures and videos posted soon. Our old website is still not working and I have not been successful getting someone from Microsoft to help. Hopefully we can recover all of our comments and pictures from our Kazakhstan trip.

Welcome to the first post from The Bonsett's new blog. Stay tuned for updates and pictures. Microsoft has our old blog all messed up so I am trying a new one from Google/Blogger. Hopefully we can recover all the history we have from the old one since it chronicled our travels to Kazakhstan. Stay tuned for more info and pictures. Reagan is doing great and is almost 10lbs. Alek is having some issues. Everything we do is a struggle the past few days. He would not participate in karate lessons or the 4th of July parade because he says he is scared, to shy, and too little. Gone are the days when he would try anything. Hopefully this is a short lived stage he is going thru. Getting him to knap, get dressed, eat, etc. is a major ordeal with lots of crying. Stay tuned.
