Beauty and the Beast

I took Sydney to her first movie - Beauty and the Beast in 3D. Most Disney movies are fun with a few scary parts however his one is more scary parts than fun ones. She liked most of it but we didn't make it through he whole movie.

Baby Luncheon

My friends Lauren and Tracie gave me a baby luncheon today. I have such good friends to do that for me! And more good friends to attend! The setting was beautiful with the theme of Sugar and Spice.

The gang: Tracie, Brooke, Nicole, Me, Melissa, Lauren, Julie, Sarah and Sage

Wow!  What great gifts!

Finished Basement

The basement is now done! Sydney has had fun running around in all the empty space. I hope she likes it just as much with stuff in it :-). Although she keeps asking when she can put some of her toys down there. Looks like this weekend we can start putting shelves up in the unfinished part to put stuff in "storage".

Gillian's Birthday Party

Sydney was invited to Gillian's birthday party at a gymnastics place. All the kids had fun!

Fun Times

Yesterday Sydney found a Tinkerbell puzzle I had put away since there were so many pieces (~100 pcs). Her and Brian put it together and she actually did really good at putting a lot of it together all by herself. Sydney and I did the puzzle again this morning and then decided to go buy another big puzzle. She picked a Fancy Nancy one. I did the border to get her started and then she did ALL of Fancy Nancy, Frenchie (the dog), the 3 butterfly pictures and the baby sister in the blanket by herself!!!

Later on, Sydney wanted to do the Tinkerbell one again.

Brian and Sydney put together the train tracks.

We have had many fun family days and will be back to reality tomorrow :-(.

New Year's Eve

We spent New Year's Eve with our friends - Lauren, Phil, Sophia and Madelyn. We ate dinner at PF Changes and then off to bowl. Who knew it would take 2 hours to bowl one game??? But it was FUN! The girls had a lot of fun. It took Sydney a few turns to want to go up and do it herself and then she did great! She even beat me (Katie) :-).
