Sydney playing peek-a-boo!

She likes to pull everything off of the top of the table. She has just started to pull herself up with things, she only gets as high as her knees right now!

I keep some of Sydney's toys in this end-table. She hasn't figured out how to open it yet, I have to get it started for her and then she will push the door out of the way and commence with the emptying! And she loves to play peek-a-boo around it! She finally rolled 3 times in a row a few days ago! She has just realized that by rolling around and turning herself a little she can reach more things. (pictures taken 2/7/07)

She really wants to get the book off the table.

She has started moving- she isn't crawling yet. She leans forward on her hands has started to reach for things, but one leg gets in the way. But she is figuring it out! And as soon as she gets what she was reaching for she rolls right onto her back to play with it!

She has started jabbering, especially at night. Now if she is mad, she talks (yells) and cries instead of just crying. She is really a funny kid. (pictures taken 2/7 and 2/21)

Sydney's new bed with the blanket Grandma made for her.

And don't worry- the side goes up, and I only put it down for the picture, plus she can't get to a sitting position by herself yet, almost, but not yet. (pictures taken 2/5)

SYDNEY

Sydney still loves water bottles- empty or full.

And she loves to eat- today was a particularly messy one.

January's Ice Storm

The ice storm was quite an adventure. Brent's car was completely iced over, most of the roads were closed (the office Brent works in was closed for 3 days- so everyone had to work from home). We had big iscles hanging from our house. The windows, sidewalks and plants were all coated with ice.

Beautiful Sydney!

Books

Sydney loves books!! She used to be content to let me hold them and read to her, but now she likes to have at least one hand on the book. And she loves to help turn the page, but she usually turns them the wrong way!

Sydney sucking her thumb!

Sydney found her toes one day while she was having her diaper changed, and grabbed them later that day while in her chair, but hasn't much since then.

Sydney in a new dress & her first pair of tights. She is in her 3-6 month clothes now!

Sydney loves to lay on her side, especially when sleeping!

Grandma & Sydney

They were all a little distracted by the TV, especially Sydney.

I just got my hair trimmed, same basic style, I just had about 2 inches cut off.

Pregnancy Update

Just an update on my growing belly! Not a very flattering picture, but that is me.

Liz & Dad swapped skiis- and boots! Dad has some new bindings and wanted Liz to try them. It was more like ice skating than skiing that day.
