Funny sayings

So I need to start posting more of these. There are so many each day that I really need to write down.
So nate and Sydney were wrestling the other night. Sydney was giggling and gettin' dad and she stood up and tugged on her pants and said. 'Oh oh, my buns were gettin out!".

Hopefully more fun sayings to come!

Christmas time!!

Sydney catching a lift on nates shoulders. She loves her daddy so much. We are pretty lucky to have such a sweet loving daughter.

We went downtown to check out the tree in pioneer square. Syd said 'WHOA! Big tree. 'Sydney wants to go in tree"

Sydney did really good helping decorate the tree. She was pretty proud she was able to help.

We went to get our tree a couple of weekends ago. It was actually snowing for the half hour we were getting the tree. It was pretty cool. None of the snow stuck, but it sure made it feel 'christmasy'.

Sydney had some fun opinions of what trees she wanted to take home. She really liked the red tree.

We had a great thaksgiving. My mom and Ken came and so did my brother, birgit and mia. Syd loved having Mia around and really loved reading books to her. I think she is going to be a great big sisiter!

This is a hat she got from grandma. She looks pretty tough, huh?!

Children's Museum

We went to the Children's Museum the other week and we had so much fun. Just another reason I am so thankful to live where we live. there is so much to do with Sydney.Sydney loved the face painting station. She looked so hilarious when she was finished. her face was almost camouflaged. She totally zonked out on the way home.

Sydney the clown!! She loved being a clown for halloween. She wore a clown suit nate and his brother wore when they were kids. Nates mom made it. It fit her so cute!

Chicago

We went to Chicago last week. My Grandma was 98 and decided it was time to go 'Home'. We went back for the services and it was good to see family and be together. My Brother and his family was there too.
Syndey had a ton of fun playing with her cousin Mia.


We went to the Lincoln Park Zoo. We had so much fun looking at all the animals and Chrcking out the Gorilla house that my sister in law designed.

We went to a pumkin patch near Mt hood. It was a lot of fun. We went through a corn maze and Sydney got to pick out her own pumpkin. She still has this crazy smile with her eyes closed. Not quite sure when she will 'out grow' it. She is funny. When you ask her to smile with her eyes open her face just freezes and she doen't even smile. She just opens her eyes really big.

We went to the beach and stayed in a yurt a couple of weekends ago. It was pretty cold in the evening, but we still had a lot of fun playing in the sand

Savouring the last days of summer

Sydney is learning to make funny faces. This is one of her favorites.







She got her first backpack. Sometimes it pulls her over, but she loves to wear it and looks like such a big kid in it.
