Getting Bigger Every Day!

Hi Family & Friends,

Well it's official, I'm getting bigger. It's been a while since I've been allowed on the computer. I still mostly eat, sleep and go to the bathroom, however I'm growing. These past couple of weeks, I've mastered rolling over both ways. I started to roll onto my back when I was 7 weeks, but it took me till 5 months to roll over onto my tummy from my back. Now that I have that mastered, my next goal is to crawl. I can move all over the place: side to side & backwards. No forward movement yet. I know I'll be there soon because I can almost get up onto my hands and knees. Plus I'm getting really close to sitting up all by myself too. I can sit by myself but I tend to fall forwards...just need a little bit more tummy strength.

This week Adelaide started her chore chart. Mommy & Daddy want her to be a really big girl and teach her that we have responsibilities to do around the house. Adelaide did great for her first week. Hopefully next week will be smoother.

We're headed into another busy week. Mommy is getting ready to head down to AL again. Daddy might be gone too for a little bit to Phoenix. Adelaide & I are going to hang out with Grandma & Grandpa for the week. It's going to be lots of fun.

Until next time,
Love Sydney & Adelaide (Trav & Tiff too)

Adelaide's Chart!
She helped take out the trash by throwing away diapers!! We need to work on not whining, sharing & picking up toys!

See, I can roll over to my tummy!

Happy Sunday!

Macy's Flower show 2013


Hi Family & Friends,

We had a fun couple of days with Gramy, Papa & Uncle Sean. Mommy & Daddy took Sydney & I to the airport to pick them up. Gramy, Papa & Uncle Sean were just coming home from their trip to Italy to see Auntie Alice. We got to stay up late and get them. It was really fun. All of their bags were wrapped in green cling wrap. I think they came home with 9 suitcases. It was crazy!

The next day was Friday and we had to wait for Mommy to get done with work before we could meet up with everyone again. We quick drove home after Mommy got us from daycare and then drove up to downtown Minneapolis. We parked in Daddy's office building and then went to see his office. We showed Gramy, Papa & Uncle Sean the office. Plus I got to say hi to all of the nice people that Daddy works with. From there we went to the flower show at Macy's. I loved all of the beautiful flowers. This years theme was India. The colors were very vibrant and rich. My favorite part was the elephants. Too bad they weren't real. After the flower show, we all went upstairs to the Oak Grille. Gramy hadn't been in the restaurant since she was a little girl. (Granted it's changed owners & names a few times) It was a fabulous meal! It was a great way to kick off the weekend.

Here's some pictures from the show.

Until next time,

Happy (Belated) Easter!

Hi Family & Friends,

We had a wonderful Easter. The morning started with going to church. It was fun we had a whole group of us that went to church. Kyle & Jaxon, Brandi & Johnathan and then all of us. Sydney & I wore our cute dresses that I picked out. After church we went home and took a good nap, so we could be happy to go to Easter dinner at Oma & Opa's house.

We went to Oma & Opa's house around 3ish. It was really fun, we brought our Easter baskets and Mommy hid some of our Easter eggs. Plus Ome had hidden our Easter baskets as well. I got to find both Sydney's & my basket!! I loved looking for all of the hidden eggs. Opa made a really yummy lamb for dinner and Oma made some awesome side dishes. This year Mommy changed up the fluff. Instead of making a cranberry fluff, she made a 4 berry fluff. It was just as yummy, if not better!

Here's a few pictures from our Easter fun!
Until next time,
Love Adelaide & Sydney (Trav & Tiff too)
