Saturday at the Zoo

The weather was not too hot so we took off for the zoo mid day Saturday.

Even though Scott didn't like the dinosaur exhibit at the zoo he still enjoys sitting on the statues.

Something must have been pretty interesting off to the right...

Silly boy!

Urge to sew

All we do these days is clean and of course all of my craft and sewing supplies are packed in the garage but I needed to do something besides clean so out it all came! I wanted to try a pattern so I started with something simple, a jumper for Sydney. Here she is modeling for the camera.

She's saying, "Shoe."

"Flower."

And she's off to ride the scooter which she rides so well! She now turns and everything! Of course she refused to take the dress and shoes off.

Helpful Brother

Since Sydney still will not hold a bottle Scott stepped up yesterday and helped her out!

Where is this child's mother?!

Motorcycle Girl!

Sydney has become quite the motorcycle rider. She has mastered riding around "the loop" -kitchen to entry to living room back to kitchen. Scott will fly by her on his scooter. Usually she's serious and won't look at you as she rides by.

Making the rounds...

Sometimes I'll get a smile!

Sydney's first official haircut

So Sydney's hair was in need of some professional help. She really just needed a trim to clean it up and I caved for bangs at the last minute. Her hair is so fine it doesn't keep a rubber band or clip in for long. The hairdresser had good perspective, she's one only a baby with baby hair. She has many years of good hair in her future.

The actual haircut was so easy! (compared to Scott) She actually looked like she was going to fall asleep she was so relaxed.

Hugging Ally! They gave her a little bow when she was all done.

Random August Pictures

So here are some random pictures from earlier in the month...

When Sydney was sick earlier this month there was a lot of movie watching. Mary Poppins was one of the favorites. Here Scott is doing the penguin dance. Notice the low riding pants :o)

Friends told us about a splash park and we definitely have plans to go back one day soon!

Poor Sydney. I was taking pictures of Scott and she insisted on having her picture taken. She's still in the fever stage of her illness here and this is the biggest smile she could muster for the camera.

Yea!! Sydney is eating solid food again! She lost some weight during her week long illness so it was great to see her eating again. Scott was spending some time with her trying to make her smile and feel better.

Pretty girl!
