Lots of pictures

Since going back to work, I've been very slack about updating our blog. But don't worry, we are still taking plenty of pictures. I decided to just put all of the cutest recent pictures on one update. Hope it's not too much. Now isn't this just the cutest little face you've ever seen?
She has finally started to laugh. Here is just a glimpse of her laughing.

In this one you can almost hear her cackling. She is very funny.

Here, we had just come in from taking a walk. Raegan always has to wear a hat to cover her ears if the weather is cool. I just thought she looked sweet holding her hands! If you look close, you can still see the pacifier marks on her cheeks :)

This is her first pair of jeans that actually fit. She is just now starting to fit into size 3-6 months clothes. I wasn't quite ready to make that next step, but she doesn't seem to be slowing down growing. I weighed her here at the house tonight and our scales said she is at a whopping 13 lbs.
She has a new toy that her daddy put together the other night. She, like her buddy RuthAnne, doesn't have long enough arms to reach the toys just yet. She gets excited if Mama makes the toys make noise. She looks like such a big girl in this thing. I can't believe she is already 3 months old!

Daddy's girl

I just wanted to show everybody this picture of Tony as a baby. Granted he doesn't have red hair and his cheeks aren't quite as chubby, but I think it is undeniable who Raegan looks the most like as a baby. The older she gets we think she looks a little bit more like her mama, but this picture just tells it all.

Raegan's Baptism

Raegan was baptized on Sunday, September 10, and here is a picture of all of our family and loved ones who came to celebrate with us. Lots of people love this baby girl already!
Raegan's new buddy RuthAnne was there for moral support. She was baptized a few weeks before and she wanted to let Raegan know that she went through it and it wasn't so bad... a little cold, but not too bad :) RuthAnne's mama, Carrie, and I grew up together and now we can watch our girls grow up together. (Notice that the new mamas are both wearing black. It's a very slimming color :)

Many faces of Raegan

Not much new going on in the Roop household. I've started back to work as of Tuesday, and things are going okay. I must say I would rather be home with Raegan, but I still like my job. It helps to like what you are doing. I will only be working 3 1/2 days a week, so it won't be too bad. It really helps that family will be keeping her. This is on my first day back at work. Her Nana came over to keep her... and her mama didn't even cry (on that day at least :)
I think that Nana took these picture to prove to me that Raegan was okay with me going back to work. It helped a little bit to see her smiling. She is so sweet!

Getting ready for bed

Raegan absolutely loves bath time. I really calms her down after a long day. Her daddy helped give her a bath tonight and she looked so cute all snuggled up in his arms afterwards.
As cute as a little bug in a rug... or bath towel.

There is that little Tony face again.

She looks like she is daring us to take her binky out.

Dad gets one more "I love you" in before she gets her belly full and hits the sack.

Cute baby

Here is a picture of our sweet baby girl gearing up for a smile.
This expression is priceless. Nothing can melt a parents heart more than those precious baby grins! I'm not sure what the big eyes are for, but her whole face always seems to light up when she smiles. I just wanted to share this picture because it's the best smile I've captured on camera.
She is really getting good at this sitting up thing. She is such a show off :-)
