Sydney’s big step or should I say jump on her own.

Monday night, 5/12/08, Sydney mommy and daddy were all playing on the floor with Sydney’s new blocks when all of a sudden, Sydney got this look of determination on her and managed to get herself into standing position with no help from mommy or daddy. And what did she do? Jump! Of course took about 3-4 jumps before she lost control and leaped into mommy’s arms! Figures she wouldn’t take steps, but jump. That’s my girl! Lean mean jumping machine! When I got to work the next to share the big news with Lori and Tony, Tony argued with me, he said I’m sure she didn’t actually jump. She might have looked like she was jumping but I bet her feet didn’t leave the ground. So I do want to clarify with any other disbelievers that her feet did in fact leave the ground when she jumped. And if you would like to see it for yourself, come on over! She puts on quite a show these days! Haha I as worried about when she would start that we would have more things to worry about, but she’s been great! And I got to say the constant whining we’ve been dealing with for the past three weeks is finally over. You couldn’t leave the room without her fussing. Unless you picked her up and took her with you and most of the time she would let you hold her so you had to help her walk. Now all we do is have to check to make sure she’s following behind us which is normally the case now. I’ll make sure daddy gets some new pics on here for you all. So sorry (barb) about the delay in writing.

WOW great entry, and YOU GO Sydney! Hey Darla, I totally understand that your little sweetie keeps you very busy -- but giving Jeremy a rough time about "I miss hearing about Sydney" is so much fun too :>)! Gotta keep 'daddy' on his toes too!

Thanks for the update on your little jumper, summer will be SO MUCH FUN at your house!
