A colorful world

I LOVE the colors in this picture. I'll have to go take the little squirrel back to this playground and have some more fun with this shot.

Pretty flower...

Some of my favorite shots are of her tromping through the grass. Next time I'll have to frame her full shadow in the shot for a little extra imagery.

Keeping 'em coming.

I have become Sydni's permanent paparazzi. These are just some more pics of her being her sweet self.

She knows something I don't know...

In this picture she has her FAVORITE blanket in the world. She likes to drape it over the rocking horse, and the cats, and say "There you go". It's the sweetest thing.

Her favorite thing to do. That's my little antisocial angel. Books! Books are all you need! No boys!

Today we had Sydni's toddler gym class. It's an hour long and there are lots of toys, slides, and ball pits. I love watching her with the other little one's. She's very gentle and kind. She plays for a while and then flies toward me for an atomic hug, just to check in. Every twenty minutes there's 'circle time' and she likes to do the clapping games and sing the songs. There's one part of a song where we 'hop, hop, hop' and I usually try to hold my belly and do little hops with Sydni, but at this point in my pregnancy I think I'm done 'hopping'. I notice everyone eye-balling me to see if my water's going to break or something.

I think tomorrow we'll go to the book store and see if we can find a picture book on being a 'big sister'. I think that would really help Sydni start to understand what her new role is going to be. For now she points at my tummy and says 'Baby!' and rests her head on it and gives kisses. I don't know how much she really comprehends, but I think she's going to do pretty well with the transition next month. I'm starting to get glimpses of the 'terrible two's'; every now and then she'll throw a pretty impressive fit, but we'll get through it, and I know it's nothing personal. Besides, that's what duct tape and sedatives are for, right?

This one's for you, Kat

Yep. That's the belly. Yep. My hair is very short right now.

Ok, bye.

Today's Pic's...

Yes, I am having fun taking lots of pictures now... I just wish the formatting wasn't so annoying on this blog. Sorry it's so scattered. I've reformatted and posted many times trying to make all the previous posts look more 'clean' but to no avail.

So! Just take it as is.

New Camera!

'No, Mommy. I don't want to get up and pose for you...'

'You will pose, and you will like it. We've got to pay for this fancy new camera somehow!'

And that's how Sydni's modeling career began.
