33 Weeks

Once again, we are so behind in posting!  This past week we went on a playdate to Edinburgh, had dinner at BW3's with Sammy and Zack and cards night at the Koehnen's. Lexi is getting her two top teeth and is so adventurous...  trying to get into everything. Sydney is quite the character as always and her quote this week while in her Carseat: help I'm stuck in the mud!

On Sunday we celebrated Mothers Day with Amy's Mom and Dad. Everyone let Mommy sleep and and then we had a nice lunch with Grandma and Grandpa Stahl. They also brought a small tree and Sydney helped plant it in our back yard. Monday was the last day of school for Sydney... it's hard to believe the year went so quickly and to see how much she has changed since the first day last September. This week the weather was beautiful and Mom and Day got to enjoy dinner on the patio at Monte Carlo Tuesday night. The boat went in the water on Thursday and on Friday Grandma Ruth came down to watch the girls so we could go out on the lake since we had a record high of 93. The pool in our neighborhood opened up this week and today Josh took Sydney to the pool, while Amy took Lexi to get her 7-1/2 month pictures taken.

The weeks are just flying by and summer is going to be quickly upon us. Mom got back from NY on Monday, but Dad was out of town until Thursday evening. On Tuesday, Sammy's mommy had a Thomas the Train party that was so much fun. On Wednesday after gymnastics Sydney got her 2nd haircut and on Friday mom took both the girls to open gym. Lexi's big news is that she can now feed herself puffs! The doctor said that normally babies can't get them in their mouths until closer to 8 months +, but the first day we gave her puffs at 6-1/2 months she got one in and now she is a pro.

Here are some fun Sydney quotes of the week:

I don't want to sleep with Teddy, he's whining.

After dinner "it's happy time"

Mom: Are you being nice to Lexi?
Sydney: but I'm a princess and I need to focus

She calls headbands, band-aides

This past week was a bit of a blur. Josh found out he was going to NYC for work and last minute we decided to go early and spend the weekend there prior to his week of meetings. It was a quick trip, but it was so nice to have a little time away. We ate out at fabulous restaurants, saw some sights and relaxed!

One of the cute Sydney stories of this week was going in to get Sydney after she woke up in the morning. Mom: okay let's get up - Sydney: hold on I've got to focus. She is such a funny little girl!
