Habitats for Dinosaurs...

So, best $.50 I ever spent was this past weekend at Watsontown's yard sales on a Brontosaurus for Sydney. Sydney and her Brontosaurus (sometimes called her brother)have been inseparable since. last night, as we played in Mimi's bed, Sydney place her dino up on Mimi's desk. Mimi of course asked "Now what's your dinosaur doing up on my desk?" Never did she think she would be answered like this...Sydney says, "He's lost, he needs to find his habitat, his habitat is in the woods for lots and lots of trees." Reminder, Sydney is 3 years old. As soon as she says this, mom and I look at each other dumbfounded once again. The things that come out of this little three year old never ceases to amaze me....

Walking at 10 1/2 months...really?

Really? My baby's walking....really? Is what I keep asking myself. I CANNOT we are really at this point, if I blink, I'm afraid it will be September, what? It actually is September? You mean almost a whole year has passed since Daphney came into our lives? Wow, what a ride it's been. Fast and Furious is what I should have named my children...Daphney (AKA Fast) is into everything!! Fast you must be to change her diaper because she has NOOOO time for you if you decide to dilly dattle around with diaper cream. Fast at crawling, fast at walking, fast and putting things in her mouth that should not be there....and let's not forget Furious (AKA Sydney) furious with Daphney for stealing her toys, Furious with daphney for getting to Mommy quicker than her. Although she does seem furious at times with her baby sister, she is also as much in love as we are with her. Since Daphney started walking you can even see the proudness in her. Syd will cheer her on as she conquers the living room.

My girls are growing up so fast, there's not enough hours in the day to get me fill of them. As I sit here winding down for the night, all I think about is them, how I wish I could have gotten one more squeeze out of them. They consume my heart. How lucky we are to have them in our lives....

9 Month Comparison


SO...can any of you out there tell who's who? I almost can't...Daphney is in the top photo and Sydney is below.
Has it really been months since I updated here? Life is insane anymore, great but insane. Daphney started crawling about a month ago and has not stopped moving since. She is fearless, I was extremely spoiled with Syndey when she was at this stage. Sydney never pushed the limits and was never interested in getting into things that she shouldn't. Daphney has been a different story. The first week we kept her in doors for fear that we would be reported for all the bruises she had on her head for trying to head butt her way through things, like gates, chairs, ottomans you name it. Nothing too big stands in her way! Needless to say she keeps us on out toes between trying to find barracades large enough to keep her in to making sure there's not one single fuzzy, crumb, silly band laying on the floor within her reach. Because if we did leave anything on the floor it goes right in her mouth. For instance, we found a fully in tact silly band in her poop the other day. God knows what else she might have swallowed that we didn't find.
I have to say, I still wouldn't change our lives for anything! Poopy silly bands and all!

snow snow and more snow!!!





We were officially dumped on by the snow fairies!!! WOW what a storm. Tried to get to work today, what a joke, I slid for a couple miles then decided to head home, when I turned around, I got stuck...what fun. If the storm would have been over I would have chanced it, but the fact we were to get another 6 inches or so I decided to head home, better safe than sorry.... So we decided to make the best of our day, of course Jeremy was off. SO when he decided to head out to do the first round of shoveling, Sydney and I joined him for some winter fun! As I sit here and type, I'm thankful I'm indoors now, the wind is whipping like crazy out there...let the drifting begin! Should make it interesting to get to work tomorrow! Enjoy some pictures of the snow!
