Missing Roo

So this post is a bit more about me than Reagan. I am away from home all week on business and so I am a bit baby deprived. On one hand it is great to have a break (although I don't really get me time on these trips), on the other I find myself constantly missing the Roo. I miss her happy morning greetings from her crib--where she tends to jump up and down like a roo, her impromptu hugs as we get ready for our day, her "help" while I dry my hair--holding the hairbrush in the bathroom and chewing on the handle while I use the dryer, then handing the brush to me for a few swipes and whining until I give it back to her, all while staring at the whole process in complete fascination. And then there is my all time favorite part of the day--the toddler waddle-run across the classroom when she sees me peek in and the big smile and hug I get when I pick her up at school. Ahh, the little things that mean so much, and mean even more when I am 1700 miles away. I am looking forward to big baby hugs Friday morning.

So sad! It is extremely hard to be away from the little munchkins but it does make you appreciate them even more!
