Sydnee 2 months

I forgot to post these pictures of Sydnee at about 2 months...These were taken at the very beginning of June. She has been the best baby. She is very different from my other kids because she LOVES being on her tummy! So since she was about 2 weeks old I had her sleeping on her tummy because she would cry and scream on her back. We were able to get good sleep while she slept on her tummy too. But I started feeling really worried about it because they tell you all about SIDS and stuff so when I took her for her 2 month check up (only over 2 weeks after she turned 2 months) I asked her doctor about it. He once again told me that I really should put her on her back but then again most of us as babies laid on our tummies. She got her 2 month shots and she was the most miserable I have ever seen her the whole rest of the day. When the tylenol would wear off she just screamed and you couldn't move her or her legs cause they hurt so bad! She ended up sleeping on her back that night and has slept on her back ever since. I didn't want her on her tummy that night because her legs hurt but ever since she has been just find on her back...guess the doctor was right...she would get used to it. Poor little Syd! Good thing it was an afternoon appointment because the next day she was just fine. At her 2 month appointment she was just over 11 lbs. and about 22 1/2 inches tall. She is just a little below average but perfect nonetheless!! We love our sweet little girl!

This guy...

makes me happy! Just wanted to wish my awesome husband a very Happy Father's Day! I Love you and I know our kids love and adore you so much!

Also to my dad...Thanks for being my dad! You are the best dad and Papa ever! I love you more than I could ever express to you.

And to my Father in law...thank you for raising such a wonderful son. And for being a wonderful grandfather to my children! I love you!

Rylee...Rylee

I am a bad mom and I forgot to get on here yesterday and just post a big Happy Birthday shout out to my sweet little Rylee girl! I can't believe she is 3 already! Wow, time really does fly when you are having fun! She is definitely drama in our house and keeps us all on our toes! She still passes out when she cries and lately it seems to be more and more often! Someone please tell me she is going to stop this!? She loves the princesses and anything girly. On Sunday mornings when I am getting ready she comes in and finds shoes in my closet and tells me "Mom wear these shoes, they are absolutely beautiful!" If I tell her no and I find another pair of shoes she will look at them and say "Mom, those are NOT fancy shoes." until I put them on and then she says I look beautiful! She is doing a great job in her first time at swimming lessons and she is still afraid of the BIG fake elephant that makes noise at the zoo...which is funny because she is not afraid of much!! Happy Birthday (yesterday) Ryles!!

Sydnee's blessing

We had Sydnee's blessing this past weekend in our ward. We had lots and lots of family that came to it. She was beautiful in her blessing dress and such a perfect angel! Ryan gave her a beautiful blessing as well. I am so lucky to have my sweet little family.

Princess Rylee

Here is how we found our little princess a few nights ago. She is such a silly girl!

Walk for the Wach's

In our old ward we had many great families and friends. We have kept in touch through blogs and facebook mostly but it is really nice to have a connection still! We had a unique opportunity to help one such family last Saturday morning. We got to walk a 5K for the Wach family. The dad, Chris had pancreatic cancer over a year ago and now he has been diagnosed with back/neck cancer that will be fatal eventually. He has 5 children and the oldest was one of my Laurels when I taught the Laurels and his youngest is about 4 years old. We miss this great family and wish them the very best! My brother and his family were up for Sydnee's blessing so he came and ran it. My parents also came and pushed my neice Caitlyn in the stroller; while Ryan and I had our 3 kids...2 of them in the stroller and Nathan walked about 3 miles of it! We finished in about 53 minutes...not too bad for having a c-section 7 weeks ago, pushing a double stroller and a 5 year old walking!

Preschool Graduation

Last week we were able to go to Nathan's preschool graduation. I can't believe he's moving on to Kindergarten in September! He is such a smart kid and we are so proud of him.

Nate saying his part in the program. "In November, we learned about Christmas around the world." He was supposed to say "December" but he did it all by himself! Good job!

Jumping like frogs in the program.

Getting his diploma.

Miss Becky and Nate...She was the most wonderful teacher and I am excited because Rylee will be going there this year! We love Miss Becky!

The 4 friends from our old house/ward area. Nate, Owen, Miss Becky, Sabrina and Lee.

Trista, Mikaila, Me and Heather (my friends from my old ward) I love these ladies!!!

Three Amigos

Here are some pictures of the kids. Nathan and Rylee have both wanted their pictures taken with Sydnee so we got a few here and there. They really love that sweet baby girl...okay it's hard NOT to love her!! She is quite a mover and a shaker when it comes to sleeping. She screams and cries all the time on her back...she hates being there! So the other day while she was napping I walked into the room and this is what I saw...silly girl! She had made her way to the top of the craddle and had her arm out. She is so precious!
