Welcome to Sydney's house

Sydney has a new house...welcome home. ; )

Sydney's favorite place to stand up is on her highchair. Here are a few pictures.

This one is standing on her dog chair

Sydney had some firsts this weekend. She has learned how to clap, wave and dance. All are too cute, and I still need to get pictures of all of them. She actually clapped at Mike's game on Saturday....Go Canes!!! Finally, she had her first taste of ice cream...yum!! She was really sucking on that cone!!!

Sorry it's been so long since the last post. Mike is down in Puerto Rico for a tournament and I haven't been feeling so great. Sydney has been great though. Making it easy for me to be home alone for so long. Sydney went to her first basketball games last week. She did great. She was so fascinated by the cheerleaders and all the people. She had fun crawling around the office after the games. She was so tired afterwards!!!

Lynn and Steve were just here visiting. It has been great for Sydney to get to know so much family. Here are some pictures from their visit.

Sydney checking out the new toy that she got from Nana and Papa.

Sydney now loves when Mike carries her like this....

Also wanted to share how she's standing up. Pulling herself up on her highchair is her favorite, but she's doing it everywhere!!! She'll pull herself up and then look around to make sure that everyone saw. ; )

It's crazy that next week is Thanksgiving. I'm sure we'll have some pictures from the festivities at Coach's house.

trip to the park

The weather has finally gotten nice here in Miami. The humidity gone down and it's cool enough to do stuff outside during the middle of the day. It is just too nice to stay inside so Sydney and I decided to go to the park today. This is her first time to a park. She had alot of fun. It's also a great excuse to take pictures w/ the new camera. ; )

She LOVED swinging on the swing.

Lucky girl

Sydney is such a lucky girl. She's able to have so much family come to visit. Last weekend Dad, Cheryl, Kevin and Claire all came down to visit from Illinois. It was great for Sydney to get such good time with them. During their time here, Sydney also had her first trip to the beach. She wasn't a huge fan of the water, but liked playing in the sand.

Dad showing Sydney the ocean....she's not quite sure about it.

....still not sure....

Definitely not a fan.

Finally safe from those scary waves.

Sand is kinda fun to play with, but a pain to get out of diapers!!!

Playing with her Granddad after her lunch.

This is her new funny face. She does it all the time, and it's hilarious!

This week we have visits from Mike's uncle Dave during the week. Then Lynn and Steve are coming to spend a long weekend. Like I said, Sydney's a lucky girl!
