Last day on ship

I’m sorry that I’m running a bit behind. I have been busy cutting Reagan off the boobies this week. I’m sure someone of you are like, “What you were still breastfeeding.” Yes, I was. It was a hard habit to break, but I actually think it was harder on me then her. She actually has done really great. We had to bring back a bottle, but you have to pick your battles. I’m still stuck with boobs full of rocks, but Reagan is doing great.

I’m finally updating the blog with our last day on the cruise, which was spent at sea. The last day at sea actually went very fast because we packed our bags and had a formal night. I do wish I had better hair for the formal night, but when you can’t use anything that has heat you’re stuck with bad hair. I hope you enjoy the pictures. I will be posting pictures from Reagan’s birthday party & Copenhagen from our cruise.

Welcome to Russia

Welcome to Russia! In the days leading up to our visit of St. Petersburg we kept saying, “Welcome to Mother Russia,” in our best Russian accent. I have to say that I was a little anxious about going to Russia and I’m sure your wondering why. I kept imagining the worst things happening; perhaps someone was going to try and steal Reagan. I felt my stomach going in knots just waiting to get off the ship. We spent the morning playing around the ship until our afternoon tour. To get off the ship you had to have either a tourist visa, or be booked on a ship-sponsored tour. No one is allowed to roam around the country unescorted. We had booked an afternoon tour that took us on a tour of the city’s cannels and Yusupov’s Palace. It was a nice short tour. We got to see lots of the sights & take pictures from the boat. Reagan did really well, and we constantly received complements on her good behavior. After the palace we headed back to the ship, ready to set off for Copenhagen. That night we enjoyed a nice dinner, and decided to try our luck at BINGO again. I’m happy to say that I finally won a game, along with four other people. While it was great to win, it was not so great to split the 150 Euro prize 5 ways.

Some yummy breakfast.

Waiting to go see St. Petersburg

I guess the people that said she looked like an angel didn't see her have a meltdown.

Sights from the boat.

Funny smile

Yikes are we going to make it?

A little breastfeeding in Russia.

This really is not an angry face, but her silly face.

Wow...look at that says the Daddy.

Russia making sure you have the smallest areas to go through.

A little deck time in PJ'S

Day 4 Tallinn Estonia

I apologize for the delay. I was so sad because my trial version of light-room expired. It is all better now, and I have some pictures from day 4 of our cruise. We spent day four in Tallinn Estonia. The old town of Tallinn is absolutely beautiful. When you get into old town it actually is like you stepped back to the 1400’s. The weather in Tallinn was absolutely HOT. The whole time Jake kept saying to me, “I can’t believe you wanted me to bring a snowboarding jacket.” I thought that because we were going to the Baltic it would be cold, but I was totally wrong. While in Tallinn we walked around on a guided tour and learned about the city. We got to go into town hall, and see the oldest pharmacy in all of Europe. I hope you enjoy all the pictures!

All my cheerleader friends will agree that Reagan has mastered #1 sign.

This is what a sleeping angel looks like. That is what everyone tells us she looks like.

Welcome to the outside of Tallinn

St. Olaf Church in the distance. It has no joke been struck by lightening at least 8 times. A little more about the story http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/St._Olaf's_church,_Tallinn

The guy who told me he would never use the Ergo with the stars.

Happy Baby

I have no idea who this guy is, but I thought it looked like a great picture.

If you find us on vacation we look like this.

It was so hot Reagan went without shoes.

Oldest clock in Tallin. Yep it's from the 1400's.

As you can see he didn't realize I was taking a picture. Sometimes you have to post the one of yourself that looks good!

She spotted another kid.

Lunch back on the boat.

This is how they get the tourist.

A real live pirate ship. Okay, maybe not but sure looks like it.

I had to give her a little tickle to get this smile.

Some kisses from Daddy.

I love this picture. These two melt my heart daily.
