Twin Mattress

Sydney was waking herself up at night in her crib. She needed more space. She's a wild sleeper. I was the same way at that age. So we went out and bought a bunk bed. She's been sleeping on the mattresses only for the past two weeks. She loves having a big girl bed. She has no interest in the crib anymore. However, it's been A ROUGH ADJUSTMENT. She wants mama to sleep with her. She has fallen off a few times. I"m wondering if that has scared her. I've been thinking about getting her a night light. I"m going crazy at night. It is so hard to get her down now. And now she wakes up in the night. Any suggestions would be appreciated!

Owlz Game

We met up with some good friends for our first Owlz game of the season. They are the farm team for the Angels. Sydney was a little unsure of the mascots. She was okay with Hootz at first.
When we stepped over to his wife Holly, she didn't want anything to do with her. I can understand how scary mascots are through a toddler's eye.
Good old picture of watching the game; Sydney, Jason, Nick, Heather and their little boy Emmett. Emmett is 2 months older than Sydney. So they like playing together. Since both of them are each an only child, it is good for them to play together. Nick and Heather are Sydney's Nursery teachers. They are so good in there.

They have a playground at the field. This is Sydney's first time going down a windy slide. She loved it of course. She did give us a scare. She climbed up to the big kid slides and almost walked right off the edge. Thank goodness there was a boy up there that was able to stop her faster than I could climb up there.

Bottom of the ninth, one person on base, two outs and we hit a home run!

We won 8-7.

T-Ball

Time for a little catch up... Our camera was in the shop for two weeks. The power up button was dying. When you turned on the camera, it didn't display what you were taking a picture of. I'm so glad we purchased a 4 year service plan with Best Buy. It would have been $202.00 to fix if we hadn't.
We bought Sydney a Little Tyke T-ball a few weeks ago. She loves it!

Parade and Carnival

Saturday morning was our annual ward breakfast. I decided to not take my pain medication and take Sydney. She had a blast. I had friends offer to take her to the parade so I could go home and rest, but I declined. Sydney really enjoyed the parade once she figured out that she could run out and pick up candy. By the time I got home, I was in tears because of the pain from my bottom right wisdom tooth area. So I took some med. and passed out for a few hours.

I tried to buy her a quiet tiara, but of course she had to have the noisy horn like the kids next to us had...
Later that afternoon we met up with some friends at the carnival. I was good till my painkiller wore off. Sydney rode a few rides with her friend Emmett and had a blast. She only rode the merry go round last year, so this was a new experience for her. She screamed when we pulled her off that first ride. She wanted to keep riding. All the pain was worth the happiness it brought our daughter.




Wisdom Teeth


I had three wisdom teeth pulled on Friday. I was worried about going under, but that part was cake! Within probably 15 seconds of starting the butterfly IV, I was out. I told him the room felt weird. He said, like spinning? I said no, then I was being wheeled in a wheelchair out to my friends car. After Jason got home, I took my pain medication and was out for like 5 hours, when he had to wake me up so he could go to bed. Recovery hasn't been the funest, but I'm glad to have gotten them out finally!

The Big 30

The three of us celebrated Jason 30th birthday last Sunday.


Potty Training


I've been potty training Sydney a bit. Sometimes she only gets on once a day. I'm trying not to push her. I'm just doing it on her terms. We've been working at it for a few weeks now. Last Saturday, she did a little poo. I got all excited and praised her. She had no idea what what going on though. Oh well! Mommy is still proud!
