Practice makes perfect!

Tonight, Brad and I are getting to keep our niece, Reece, OVERNIGHT! She is April's daughter and she just turned one. This is a very big deal because Reece has never spent the night away from home. And we need all the practice we can get before we start our own family! We started the night off eating dinner at Logan's with Brooke and TB (and Brad!). Dinner went perfectly. Reece ate a roll and about half of her macaroni and cheese....AND she flirted with the waiter (blowing him kisses and waving to him)! She was a perfect angel! After dinner, we went to Mom's house (where we are currently awaiting the new year) and we put on her pajamas. She then took her night-time bottle and after playing with MiMi, Pop, Katie, Douglas, Me and Brad, she fell right asleep, after we watched some of Maid in Manhattan! I can only pray that our children will be so perfect! I seriously love that kid (well all of April's kids) so much that I really wonder if I could possibly love my own more. And speaking of April's kids, today I was talking with Peyton about his candy he got from school today. He showed me a few pieces, asking me which one I wanted, and I said, "Oh, sweettarts!" To which his cute little face completely LIT UP and he said, "I didn't know you could read!!!" Ha! Love him!
