| She went from not really "digging" getting her picture made... |
It's the pre-birthday month....oh my! I can't believe my baby is 11 months old....going on about 4 years some days! She is such a HOT MESS as her Pooka would say. :)
 |
| ...to getting really ticked that I was making her sit there for at least 500 pictures in the same pose. |
Depending on the weather...we're wearing 12 OR 18 month clothes. That means....if it's cold we wear our winter 12 month stuff and if it's warm we wear our new spring 18 month stuff. Works pretty good! She's actually slimmed up quite a bit, it seems, over the past couple of months. I'm pretty sure she was chunkier at Christmas than she is now. It must be the speed deamon crawl she's got going on....maybe I should start crawling to drop a few pounds?!?! We bought new spring shoes last week and she measured at a little over a 3 so...we bought a 4. ha! She'll grow into them!! And she's still in a size 3 diaper.

| But this made all the difference in the world...Mamas new iphone! |
Not much has changed on the food end. She's still eating cereal/fruit in the mornings and veggie or meat/fruit at lunch and at supper...with a whole lotta table food in between! She'll still eat just about anything we give her...bread being her favorite! Not pieces, now...she like the whole piece so she can spend some time gnawing at it! Bless her heart...she's developed a sweet tooth like her Mama and Daddy too...chocolate shakes have become one of her favorites! She literally will not give the cup back once she starts sucking! :)
We're still pretty stuck on the same vocabulary, too. She's added "hey" or "hi" but that's about it. And still no Daddy! :( She just calls him Mama. lol! We're pretty sure she's capable of saying Daddy but just thinks it's funny to watch us beg!?!?! I can't remember if she was blowing kisses last month or not? She'll put her hand over her mouth and leave it...she forgets to send them your way, so we're still workin on it. She also will touch her nose (if she feels like it) when we ask her where her nose is...another Grandad trick.
Sydney is sooooooooo full of energy and a handful to keep up with. If you've been around her for 5 minutes or more lately, you already know this! She's crawling EVERYWHERE, pulling up to ANYTHING, opening EVERYTHING, and digging through ANYTHING! And she's just getting started....wow!
She's still turning heads everywhere we go with people commenting on how friendly and happy she is. Talk about making a Mama and Daddy smile from ear to ear! We love it when she's sweet to everyone around...we sure hope she stays that way! It sure makes her a whole lot of fun to be around.
She's really started enjoying and learning how to play with some of her "older" toys that we've had laying around for a few months. Rather than picking them up and throwing them back down she's figuring them out and learning! She and Daddy really work hard at mastering her toys at night! Her favorite is still her learning table...she gets to stand up and play with it! She loves it so much that she gave Cecilia one for her 1st Birthday.
Yes, yesterday was Cecilia's 1st Birthday (snif, snif). I can hardly believe it...I remember her BIRTHday just like it was yesterday. So......we celebrated with a big ole party for her! I'll do a separate post on that! We'e had some other big events this month, too! Sydney attended her first Konow Farms cattle sale which was a huge day, and we also celebrated Granny K's birthday with the family at Oasis this month.
Sydney...not a day goes by (or hardly an hour for that matter) that you don't make us SMILE so big or LAUGH out loud! You are a hoot...but you know that already!!! You make each day FABULOUS for us and we LOVE you just for being YOU! We love you to the moon and back!!!
Love Always,
Daddy and Mama
