Play Time

Today has been such a fun day for Sidney Kate and I! Lee Anne came over and let us watch Isaiah for a few hours so that her and Lonie could do a little shopping and eat some lunch. I was so excited to spend some time with Isaiah and I know Sidney Kate loves having others around to play with.

I am so sad but something is wrong with my computer and I am not able to download the pictures from today. I will post them soon!

Hope everyone has a great weekend!

8 months old

Sidney Kate, today you are 8 months old! Your such a blessing to your daddy and I and we are so thankful that God gave you to us. You are about 17 1/2 pounds, wearing 6-9 months clothes. You love all your baby food and are getting very interested in what mommy and daddy are eating. We have started letting you try things off our plates every now and then as long as it's soft enough for you to eat. You have 1 tooth on the bottom that has finally broken through and are working on a few more. You aren't doing as well as mommy and daddy would like you do at night, you were sleeping through the night but the past 4 days you have been waking up crying in the middle of the night and mommy has such a hard time letting you cry it out. I think that teething and your runny nose have messed up your sleeping schedule. We are hoping that once you get over your little cold and break through a few more teeth, you will be back on track for your night sleeping. You take 2 good naps during the day and love little cat naps in the car. You are a very social and busy girl and are constantly on the move. You are crawling every where and love to stand by yourself in the middle of the room. We are starting to wonder if you are about to start walking.

I can not believe how much you have changed in the past month!

Bunch of nothing

I have so failed on updating my blog daily or every other day, it is just life that is getting in the way. Sidney Kate has been busy crawling around the house and working on getting some more teeth. Bless her little heart, we are headed to the doctor this afternoon because she barely has any voice and has snot all over the place. I am not sure if this is because of teething or if she has a virus or something else. It is so sad to hear her little horse cry, she can barley even get it out. She has been a little bit more sluggish today but is still busy crawling around the house and figuring out that there is not just the living room, kitchen and her room in the house, she is now in almost every room of the house, just exploring and hiding from us.

The sun is shining today which makes me so happy but it is beyond freezing outside, I am trying so hard to not be negative and be thankful that the Lord let the beautiful sun shine today. I have had such a hard time not having the sun for over a week, but thankfully it is out today. I can hardly wait for warmer weather to get here because there are so many things I am wanting to do with Sidney Kate, like going to the park, taking walks, the zoo. pool etc. Thank you Lord for my precious little girl and for all the memories our little family will be making this summer and have already made.

Play Date

Tuesday afternoon we went over to Traci's house and had a play date with adorable Mylee and Ashlyn. It is so fun to be able to get together with friends and let the kids play while we have some adult conversation. It is such a relief to be able to have adult time through out the week and to let the kids play together. I love that these girls are going to be able to grow up together and make so many memories. Sadly when leaving Traci's I backed right into her mailbox and did some damage to the Tahoe. I was so upset, it was my first wreck and how embarrassing that is was with an object that does not move. I have no idea how it happened, I wasn't going fast, I have a back up camera in my Tahoe and I still didn't see it. I am convinced that it moved on its own.

On another note, Sidney Kate's tooth finally popped through but not all the way, just a little bit has come through the gum. She has been a little fussy and I feel terrible for her because I know that it has to hurt. It is so funny to watch her move her tongue in and out of her mouth because she can feel her tooth. Kinda a sad moment that she wont have her gummy smile anymore. I can't believe how fast the time is going by, she will be 8 months next week.
