Sidney Claire's Study Visit

We had our 3 month visit yesterday and she did so good! Here are a few pics from our visit

I love this sweet little dress on her.

Sleeping during the Moxus test. This measures how many calories she is burning while at rest

These just crack me up! She is in the Pea Pod which is a machine that measures body mass. She has screamed every other time she's had to do it, but we caught her in a really good mood and she just smiled and cooed the entire time.

The bandaid is from where they drew blood earlier. Not fun, but she was a champ and once the inital stick was over she stopped crying and just layed there while they finished.

She has just recently discovered her tongue and sticks it out constantly

2 weeks, 2 months and 3 months. She did this at 1 month too, but I must have accidently erased that pic becasue I cant find it now. It looked pretty much like the first 2 though.

Not worth the fight.

Finn wore his pjs over his clothes to school on Wednesday. This kid is just rediculous sometimes, but gosh I sure do love him!

Our Favorite Place..The Park

Finn LOVES the park by our house. We walked there twice this week to play and stopped on our way home from dinner another night. He is getting so big and is so super confident about his abilities that its scary for this Momma. After living through the experience of a broken leg and spica cast after just falling in the living room, I am a nervous wreck when it comes to playground equipment. But, I'm trying really hard to relax and just let him be a boy.

He saw an airplane

working on his balance, Lord knows he needs to!

He loves the slide the most, he basically spends the entire time climbing up and go down.

Pollen!

This is how Sidney Claire spends her time at the park.

All good things must come to an end... He cried the entire 15 minute walk home. Being 2 is HARD!

Lately

Sidney Claire started daycare, we went to the zoo, played outside almost every afternoon, the kids took a bath together and I've been "single parenting" it while Jeff has worked long hours. I have so much respect for those who do it all the time, these guys have been kicking my butt! We are heading to Springfield this weekend to spend time with my sister and her family. I'm sure ill have lots of pics to share next week.

Happy Easter!

This is probably picture overload, but I had a really hard time narrowing it down. Some of these are from my phone and you've probably already seen them on Facebook or Instagram. We spent the weekend in Jonesboro with the Sheridan Crew. We had a great time and I only managed to forget to pack one thing. Too bad it happened to be Sidney Claire's Easter dress. Jeff and I ended up finding her another on at Dillards on Saturday. It was very pretty, but I was still really upset with myself for forgetting her orginal dress.

Finn and Sidney Claire loved playing with their cousins.

We dyed eggs using Kool Aid this year. It was so cheap and easy and the eggs turned out great! You just add one package of kool aid to 2/3 cups of water. No vingear or anything else. You can even mix flavors to make new colors. Finn mostly ate jelly beans while we actually dyed the eggs, but we let him drop some in and play with one after it was dyed.

This is how Sidney Claire spent the afternoon while we dyed eggs.

I'm not really sure Finn understood the whole Easter Bunny/Basket thing this year, but he did enjoy having Fruit Snacks before breakfast.

Finn wasn't really in the mood for pictures and SC couldn't be bothered to wake up long enough to look at the camera.

Family pictures before church

Sidney Claire was a little more awake after church and ready to take pictures with her Easter Basket. She got a sock monkey/bunny, a new outfit and a pair of shades.
