Pip Toes

Sydney insists on picking out the cup she drinks from every time she wants a drink.  She stands on the counter and usually picks out one of Savannah's cups so she can re-live her baby days.  So today she was standing on the counter looking at all the choices of cups and says, "Mama, I stand on my pip toes to get a cup."  She is so excited to stand on her pip toes!

And a bonus story.  This morning, I told Sydney that I loved her and she "no, I love you."  And I said, "no, I love you" and she said, "no, I love you!"...this continued for several minutes and by the end she was screaming it.  I'll have to remind her of this in ten year.  Is it too much to hope for her to be saying that when she's 12?

NINE Years

Can you believe it -- a post two days in a row?!?!?!

Yesterday was our anniversary. I still can't believe another year has gone by. It just seems like yesterday that we were standing in the Chapel at Kings College exchanging our vows. Thank you Jason for being the most wonderful husband and woman can have. You have given me the best nine years of my life. I love you with my entire heart and look forward to many more fabulous years with you (and our girls)!

So today's cute story of the day...Sydney and I were talking this morning and she asked if Ron and Beth can come over to play with her. They will be visiting tomorrow and she asked if they will bring the dogs. I said yes and asked her if she remembered the dogs' names. After a couple minutes of thinking, she said "CUPCAKE!"

New Plan

OK...So don't fall out of your chair because I'm finally updating this blog. I have come to the realization that Sydney and Savannah do the cutest stuff every single day but in a week I forget it. So I have a new plan. Each night I am going to post my favorite memory of the day. The post will be very short but at least in a month or in a year or in ten years I'll be able remember some of the greatest moments.

So today we picked up the girls from Edna's and we let Sydney know we were going to go to a picnic. She got extremely excited. When we were on our way to the picnic Sydney asked if we are going on a boat ride. This may not make any sense to you, but three weeks ago we went to Jason's company picnic and went on a boat ride (which Sydney absolutely loved!). I thought it was so cool that Sydney associated picnic with boat ride. Every day that girl amazes me!

And here's a bonus story. Edna told me that Sydney and Samantha were playing this afternoon and something about a horse came up. So Sydney said "Giddy-Up" while slapping her butt and galloping like a horse. Where does she learn this stuff from???
