Laughing Sydney

Say "Mama"

Sydney said Mama last week!! Scotty secretly worked with her for a week and when she finally got it down he called me into the room. It was really sweet and so special to hear her say it. Now everything is Mamamamamama! She cracks me up!!

Thanksgiving 2010

We went to my grandmother's house for Thanksgiving. We had a wonderful time!

We even took a FIVE generation picture. My great-grandmother is 101 years old.

Cousins

Nathan's son, William, turned one on Thanksgiving Day. They had his first birthday party the Sat before the holidays. My mom captured this cute picture of both of them. Sydney isn't crawling yet and William is everywhere. Sydney got so excited when William came toward her only to see that William wanted the toy next to her. :( Ha! Sydney wants to go go go, but just can't get her legs and arms to do what her mind wants. I'm telling you - she's so close! I think she'll figure out how to move her arms and legs this week!

Mirrors

Sydney loves mirrors! I always wonder what she is thinking. She loves to laugh and play with her twin on the other side of the mirror. Today was especially funny as she tried to give her twin a kiss! :) We sure do love her!

Sydney Anne - A Complete Joy

Sydney is 5 1/2 months now. I keep asking myself, "Where is the time going??" She is so happy and always giggling. One of the daycare workers told me today that she hopes her baby is half as happy as Sydney. Awww! Sydney is pushing her whole stomach off of the floor now. I used to say that I think she'll crawl before Christmas, but at this rate, I think it may happen before Thanksgiving! I can't get over how much she looks like Scotty. I see him in her all the time. Although one thing she got from me is my fair skin. I call her my little Snow White! One of my favorite times of the day is right after we give Sydney a bath. She is extremely happy and wiggles around! We can't help but laugh with her! I thank God for all of the moments with her. What an amazing gift He has given to us.

The Next Picasso

Here are some of Sydney's latest art pieces. I love how the daycare does art projects with them. It's great!
