Two Months

This is a picture that was taken by Terre Conner two years ago when we stayed at her house in Rockford, NC. Terre passed away last night after fighting an 11 year battle with cancer. We love you Terre! The girls can't wait to join you in Heaven!






Yesterday we celebrated Sydney's two month birthday! It is so hard to believe that she is already 9 weeks old! Have we really had her in our life for nine weeks already?? Time is passing so quickly! I am definetely able to enjoy Syd's baby stage so much more this time around. I'm not so stressed about the infant stage and I have two wonderful distractions ;) Sydney had her check up this morning. She is growing and developing well. She's measuring at 50% in all areas. She's 10lbs 5oz and 22 inches long. Although to Dr. did say she was advanced at holding her head up, we're so proud! She really is a wonderful baby. Some of my girlfriends helped me problem solved with her daily schedule (we're a Babywise family) and these past two weeks have been wonderful! She is playing and napping like a pro, we even survived her 8 week growth spurt. And like a good girl, she gave me 8 solid hours of sleep last night!!!!!

Now today we not only got to go to the Dr. for Sydney, but Caroline also needed to be seen. Last night Carbear and Daddy were playing around and he heard a "pop" in her wrist, so this morning we went in and got some x-rays taken. Thank goodness there was no break, but he did say it was sprained. Of course, Caroline has been living it up today. She enjoyed breakfast and lunch in bed with her arm propped up and watching movies all day. Sounds like the good life to me! Here is a picture I snapped of Caroline resting in bed, but still wanting to love on her baby sister!





These next two pictures were just an opportunity we couldn't miss! Sydney looked so cute this Sunday all dressed and ready for church we couldn't resist a good photo op!






Our newest family change has been Mak starting soccer. She LOVES it! After explaining to her that she has to listen to the coach and do what he says at practice, things have been going quite well. She feels so special wearing her soccer clothes and tells Caroline she'll have some when she gets bigger. She is growing up so fast!



Sydney also enjoys joining her sisters at soccer practice ;)
