Wouldn't be Virginia without a Saturday morning horse show and rodeo! Sydney's favorite is the blue tractor.

Cooler Weather!

Finally some cooler weather and we've been taking advantage by trying to eat just about every meal on the deck and relax in our comfy grown up and "big girl" chairs.

Second Day

Sydney was sooo excited she begged me take another picture on the second day. Ok, well not exactly but I thought she looked cute and the camera was there...

First Day of (Pre) School

Week 37.5

Practice, Practice, Practice

Sydney got some practice holding a friend's baby over the weekend. Sydney loved it and I think she could have sat like this all day long.

Sydney was excited to play with her rain toy yesterday.

Baby Brother

Another belly shot of the little guy. He's already way more active than Sydney was and causing sleep problems for Maggie.

Belly Shots

Sydney was finally kind enough to let me grab this shot of her kissing soon to be baby brother.

Her first swim lesson! She warmed up very quickly.

Father's Day

This was a great present from the little one :)

Fun at G's birthday party!

Grown up

She just looks way to grown up with earrings on. Then I saw the dress and wasn't as concerned.

Enjoying a morning coffee?

Sydney enjoys watching the morning news with a piping hot cup of coffee...or maybe it's Diego and oj, but still a nice way to start the day!

Garden pests

My garden fence keeps out rabbits, deer, and small children.

New Friends

Our friend, the johnston's added a new family member this week! Sydney got a sneak preview of what a little brother will look like.

Snow White

She does look a little like snow white...except with a worse temper.

Birthday Presents

Some good shock and awe reactions at this age.

Cupcake

...and the obligatory post haircut cupcake!

Haircut...finally.

A second haircut after we procratinated way too long. She warmed up after a while.

Multimedia message

And she's almost as crazy as Van Gogh too!

What?

I don't even know where to begin.

Colors in the Trees

I just love spring.

The Beach

For you Dee Dee, I'm back on the horse and here's the first picture from the beach...or well, aquarium. Sydney just could not wait to touch the horseshoe crabs. That is until she realized she might actually touch a horseshoe crab.

Three Footer

When there's this much snow, everyone pitches in to help! I wonder if Sydney will remember this crazy winter...probably not, but we've got the pictures for her.
