New Family Pics!

Got some new pics done... here are a couple We had to bribe Syd with smarteez so she would cooperate. We got some pretty good smiles out of her though. Everyone say blue cheese!

This was just too cute to not post. Showing off her bandaids after she biffed it.

the zoo

What do you think? Do we measure up?
We took our annual trip to the zoo and Syd was way more in to it this year. It was so fun to watch her. The Hephants (elephants) were her favorite. She was running around to all the cages saying "Look at this thing!" So cute!

She got to ride the carousel and the train, "Like Thomas!"

Other than that we've just been playing outside a lot. She's been terrified of the pool this year so we haven't that often. She gets to go over to Great Grandma "Carsents" (Carsons) almost every Thursday. She loves it there, she gets to see Mo Mo the dog and Mama kitty and play with my cousins little girl Kate, they're so cute together:) She's been saying some pretty funny things lately... like after throwing a fit or being naughty she says "I'm so sorry mama." How can I not forgive that? The other day when we were leaving my mom's she said "I wanna drive home" if she wants to drive already, we're in trouble. If you say excuse you she used to say "Scuse me, I burped." now she just shouts back "Scuse YOUUU!"

Playing in the pool outback trying to stay cool, wearing her cousin Eliza's cute hand me down swimsuit

Happy Birthday Syd!!!

Can't believe my baby is 2! We couldn't have asked for a better kid, you're perfect! We love you sooooooo much!

2 year pics!

I can't believe my sweet little baby girl is gonna be 2 next month! We had a photo shoot last week and I think the pics turned out pretty darn cute, good job bff!:)

"Uh, no."

I titled this "Uh, no" because that seems to be Syd's answer to everything these days! She has a mind of her own, that's for sure and is a little smartie pants:) She's starting to put together some pretty long sentences, this is our convo the other day...

Me: Should we get your new stroller and go for a walk?
Syd: Go get it out of the tar?
Me: Yeah, what color is Mommy's car?
Syd: Red
Me: What color is Grandma's car?
Syd: White
Me: What color is Papa's truck?
Syd: Red
Me: What color is Trent's car?
Syd: Black
Me: What color is Chelsea's car?
Syd: White

All of which are correct, I was a little surprised that she knew all of them! She's pretty much a genius. She knows her shapes pretty well, she knows her birthday is in "Ju-wyy" She also calls turbo "Stupid Turbo" thanks to Ryan. Ryan has a week off and we are excited to get some stuff done around the house and put up Syd new swing set! We'll try and sneak in a little fun too. I got my pool pass for Lindon pool so we'll be hangin there a lot this summer:) Here's some photos for your enjoyment.

Christmas Card

I can't believe Christmas is this week! We had a party on Sunday and have another one on Wednesday, It's definitely starting to feel more like Christmas. I think we could use a little more snow though. For my work party we went tubing up at Soldier Hollow, they wouldn't let Syd go down but she was fine just playing in the snow at the bottom of the hill. By the time we went inside her cheeks were bright red and nose running but she still fought to stay outside. She looked so cute in her little snow suit:) We haven't gone to sit on Santa's lap yet because when we were at dinner awhile ago there was a Santa there and he was extra loud and jolly and scared the crap out of Syd and I'm pretty sure traumatized her for life. Chelsea made some awesome cards for us, I have some to hand out but probably won't be mailing any out.

Here It Is!

I love this picture

Reminds me of A Christmas Story:)
