UP TO DATE....Finally!!!

So over the past 8 or so months that I haven't posted, we have been pretty busy. We went through the summer with lots of fun and even a trip to disneyland! Sydney is getting so big, and talking up a storm. She always says to me, "I said no!" Here are some pictures just to look at what we have been doing.

WOW!!! Forgot we had a blog.

So it has been a while since our last blog, but I am determined to get some pics uploaded soon. I got a new camera and I am still getting used to it. I will be back with updates soon....if anyone even reads this.

1st Birthday!!! Yay!!!

Masterpiece. Took me soooo long to make. I stayed up most of the night and decorated all morning. Tasted good too, luckily.

Catching up

Christmas '09. Sydney loved the snow!!!

They are on the way...

I know I have been a slacker on my own blog. I have been looking at everyone elses' blogs, then I get bored of being on the computer and don't update my own. Pictures of what has been happening (well pretty much pictures of Sydney) are in the works. Soon they will be posted.

So winter is heading our way fast. We have so many leaves to get raked and weeds to pull. Slowly it seems like we are "winterizing". Sydney even comes out to help, but she really just wants to try all the little pieces of weeds and gravel out in her mouth, so she is confined to the backpack or play yard with a sheet in the bottom so she doesn't resort to eating the "natural treasures". I really enjoy fall cleanup because I get to kill all the pesky overgrown plants and bugs die in the cold. I am finding that I am becoming more aware of summer being associated with bugs. Anywhoo...today we stacked and restacked hay for the winter and found our missing cat (who was a great mouser/outdoor cat) had been layed to rest by some wild beast. Poor Ernie. I know I will miss him. It is going to be hard to find a cat to live up to him. Sydney seems to be the only thing I take pictures of lately, but I can't help it. She is such a funny little darling.


Mommy's favorite chocolate may turn out to be Sydneys' too.

Sportin' the hat.

So this is a rocking motorcycle that was bought by grandma Garner then given to Lucus before he even thought about being a dad. Lo and behold now it is Syds.

All decked out to play out in the cold for the day. She isn't impressed by the layers.

Western Idaho Fair

Fun at the fair with Chad, Jen, and Troy and Jenny's sis's fam. Brook and Kip came later...oh yeah I still have their "shamwows". I caved this year and was sucked into a demo and bought some, but they gave us a free one so I felt good. Kip and Brook had us buy some for them too. They seem awesome.

No rides for Syd this year, but her parents sure stuffed their faces with the famous "fair food". I was in heaven.


Gotta just love the "baby stare". I love seeing babies watch each other.
