Soggy Saturday

Today was kind of a miserable day because it rained and snowed all day long. Ryan had a soccer game and I definitely didn't want to sit in the rain so a friend and I did some shopping and then we watched the second half from the car. I am so proud of Ryan that he gets out there and has a fun time doing something that he loves. He is such a good athlete (don't mind me for bragging for a minute:) but he is so much fun to watch and he has given us so many opportunities during our marriage to enjoy sports and doing things that we both enjoy so much! Now on to some better news- Sydney went to the bathroom in the potty the other day! She is 17 1/2 months old and she has gone on the potty. I was getting her out of the tub the other day and she suddenly got that look on her face and I realized she didn't have a diaper on so I hurry and just sat her on the potty and she went. I of course made a big deal out of it and let her flush and everything and I kind of just thought it was a one time thing but later in the day we were playing dolls and she dropped her dolly and ran to the bathroom and told me she needed to go. I wasn't sure if she really did but I took her diaper off and put her up there and sure enough she went. She has done it about four times now in the past three days. She is no where near being potty trained but I sure think it is a good start! I am so proud of her! Anyway so that was our Saturday and now I am off to watch the rest of the BYU game. (I can't believe I just said that :)

Knuckles

Sydney is such a funny girl! She is like a little tape recorder and says anything that you want her to say. The first part of this video was her being very sneaky with a pen but after it is her newest trick that daddy taught her! Enjoy

Pig Tails


On Sunday for church we decided to try Sydney's hair in pig tails! I was shocked to see how well her hair went. People tell me all the time they can't believe how much hair she has but when I look at it like this I can't believe it. I am now looking at my little girl and not my baby anymore. Time goes so fast but we are havung such a good time!

House Update!

I know I have been saying lately that we are getting closer and closer to moving in our house but this time we really are. The carpet guys are coming tomorrow and then we should be able to move in in the next few days! We can't wait and are looking forward to having a place of our own. I found the very first flyer that we got from the house and from the pictures we have made a lot of changes! I told Ryan the other day that we will pretty much have a new house! We are so gratefuil for all the help we have recievied from Adam, my parents, Ryan's parents, Ryan' brother in-law and many more but it is so great to be loved and have the support of so many people!

Old Friends

One of my best friends from growing up got married last night (Congrats Adam and Erin :) Anyway it was so much fun to see all of my good friends that I have kind of lost touch with. Some of my friends had never even seen Sydney before so it was fun to show off my little girl. Friends are just the best things in the world. Ryan is such a trooper to come along with me and hang out with all of my friends but I know they really like him around also. We were talking last night and Ryan and I were the first to get married and now there are just a few left to take the big leap! We were laughing because we started talking about intrest rates and money and we all stopped and had to laugh because a few years ago that would have been the furtherst thing from our minds. It is kind of weird getting older but so much fun having a family and be a wife and mother! Anyway I just had a permnant smile last night seeing all of the people that have been such a big part of my life! Freinds are the best :)

Little Mommy

So I figured out pictures all on my own! Anyway I can't believe how much of a little mom Sydney is. She loves babies and her dolls she treats just like a real baby. Ryan took these pictures of her the other day. She had just gotten out of bed and she immediatly wanted her dolly and purse. We just laugh all the time with her! She even knows how to hold them correctly-So Cute!! ( I actually don't know how to rotate them yet but I will learn :)


New Blog

So I finally decided to jump on the band wagon and start a blog for our little family. If for nothing else to keep track of all the crazy things that happen in our lives! Sydney is sleeping and so I finally decided that I wanted to do this. The first thing that I guess I need to do is figure out how to post pictures on here so you can all see my cute little family! Pictures will come hopefully tomorrow but that is all for now.
