Bay Area Discovery Museum

Auntie Jen, Auntie Meghan and I brought Syd to the Bay Area Discovery Museum, it was great. There was a little stream with plastic fish and frogs, and Syd loved it. I think if we would have stayed there all day she would have been fine:)

We decided to go and check out some of the other areas.

This was also one of Syd's favorite places. Digging up rocks and putting them in the trucks, how fun!

Trains!!!!!

Hi Mom - I am up on a boat!

Summer Fun

Sydney has been a very busy girl this summer. She has learned how to show us how old she is by holding up both pointer fingers, I have yet to catch it on camera:) She sat in her first booster seat last night at the pizza place and did pretty good, she didn't sit the whole time but was a good girl. She loves being outside, as much as possible, and with this weather, who wouldn't!

Here she is playing with her duck, she loves her duck.

She loves to play in the pool and I saw this beach ball sprinkler and had to get it. The water comes out of the top and then 3 spots on the sides, she loves it, she wasn't too sure of it at first, but then she realized there were some spots that let you get close to the ball without getting too wet and she loves to try to push the ball around.

She just recently got into jewelery, I had originally linked all of her rings together and she was using that as a necklace and then I remembered that I had kept some of my old jelly bracelets and some beads from something so I got those out and she loves them.

Happy 4th of July!!

Uncle Aaron and Auntie Karen came to visit for the 4th of July weekend.

We went to Alcatraz on Friday and had a great time

Happy Father's Day - pool fun

We spent Father's day doing what Al wanted to do. We had lunch at Wing Stop, played outside and had Brats for dinner:)

Sydney and her Daddy

Today we had some fun outside in the pool

Sydney loves to play with dishes in the pool, scoop the water....

and poor it all over:)

Stinson Beach

We went to Stinson Beach and we had a wonderful time. Sydney loved having a huge sandbox to play in!

She really liked to cover us in sand too, it was cute.

After putting sunscreen on Al, Sydney decided to help, so she rubbed sand all over his back.

Checking out the water, she wasn't too sure of it at first, but then once it hit her feet, she did really like it.

We brought water back to where we were sitting and she loved it and poured it all over herself.

More Summer Fun

We have been having a lot of fun this summer.

"Lion the phone is for you"

Practicing her multi-tasking skills, walking and talking!

Playing with the water in the pool. She wasn't too sure about the pool, but liked the water.

Then she was ready to get in, she loves it!

Hi mom, look at my teeth!

Picking up sticks!

Eating pasta and loving it.

I even use my fork some too!

Summer Fun and The Zoo

Why not put a bucket on your head!!

Helping Dad water the grass - I love water, you should see my shirt, it is so wet!

Mom filled up my little wagon with water, I loved it, dumped it a few times!

Saturday - June 5th

Oakland Zoo

We took Syd to the zoo and couldn't wait for her to see the Lions, since she loves to Roar! The only one we really saw was pretty far back, but she did see him and gave him a nice greeting by Roaring:)

The Lion

So many Giraffes, they were fun, they came very close at one point and Syd enjoyed watching them.

It was a hot day at the zoo, but we had a nice time.
