A visit from Auntie Sarah, Uncle Adam and Sam

Adam, Sarah and Sam were in San Antonio for work and so we got to spend some time with them. Sydney loves seeing her cousin Sam or as she calls him 'nam', she can't really say S's yet, she even calls herself 'nedney', it is pretty cute.





























We went to the park and the kids had a great time. We were able to be there when Sam took his first swing ride and his first time down the slide!

January Fun

We took Syd to the McKenna Children's Museum and she had a great time.




































Helping Dad with his sit ups and then Dad helping Syd with her sit ups:)




















Syd had to wear this pink skirt today, but it wasn't warm enough for the skirt alone so she let me put the pants under and then she had to wear her new pink shoes she got for Christmas from Auntie Mel and Uncle Derek. She was very proud of her outfit today!

January Update

Well the time has been flying by here in Texas! We had some rain this past weekend and the sun is finally out today and it is warming up again so we are liking that. With the sun out that means that Syd and I can get out to the parks again, which when living temporarily in a little apartment is necessary!!!

The BIG NEWS is that Syd is almost fully potty trained, she is all day but wears a pull-up for her nap and night time. This is great, Al and I are so proud of her! She is also getting more and more words and putting them together, it is so fun to watch her grow. She loves to go to the park and chase other kids, she is a bit of a copy cat right now:)

I am 35 weeks along, only 5 weeks to go, crazy that Baby K #2 is almost here. I am doing good, just tired due to chasing after Syd all day! Al continues his training and is doing well. We still don't have an end date, all depends on the weather here but hopefully we can get done and get moved into our new house in OK soon!

We hope you are all doing well, I will try to get some new pics up this week, but at least wanted to share an update on Syd, the baby.

December 2010


A few pictures from December, not sure why the pictures are not centered, but I can't figure it out!! We have had a good December so far, the weather is still warmer than we are used to, we just had shorts on the other day!! Today it is more like a fall day, highs in the low 60's. Syd and I have been very busy with trips to the zoo, play dates, going to the park and of course playing with her baby. We wish that we could see family and friends for the holidays but it just isn't going to work out. We are looking forward to spending the holidays as a family. We wish everyone a Happy Holiday Season!

Anyway here is Syd in her pig tails and pushing her baby around the apartment.












Here is Syd giving her little sister a touch. Here I am at 30 weeks.

Here is Syd sitting in her big girl bed, she loves having so much space!


Here Daddy and Syd are helping Mommy by decorating the sugar cookies. Mommy would frost them and then Syd and Dad would sprinkle them!

Santa

We took Sydney to see Santa on Saturday and well, she wasn't a big fan. She was totally into seeing him while we were standing in line but as soon as it was her turn, she held onto Daddy as hard as she could.
Now I have the picture up in the house and she sees it and says "Ho Ho Ho", what a cutie.
