Thanks, Cuz
Sydney and Christian enjoyed their first meeting, but there was little direct interaction because Christian is always cruising around and Sydney just lays there of course. Next year should be much more interesting. We did get some good video of one interaction that will be posted soon. The other large source of interaction was during car rides. They were both in car seats next to each other. So while harnessed in, they had nothing to do but stare at each other. Frequently, we would find Christian grabbing Sydney’s hand as to hold it. It was fun to see what a 1 year old does all day. It will be challenging to keep up with them, but not as challenging as what Ben & Brandon tried to do.

On The Move
So newborns lay there and one year old run around and crash. Christian is cruising the house checking everything out. We had to raise up all the fragile items as he likes to check stuff out. Then he was cruising and he nailed the bed and cut his eyebrow. Notice the red dot.

Angry Grandmas
Geez…a Dad doesn’t post pictures for a few days and all hell breaks loose. Sydney’s cousin is coming to visit so we will probably overwhelm you with millions of pictures of babies looking at babies.

Belly Time
Sydney is enjoying her “gym” as they call it. Video of the latest play time.

A Post By Mom (Finally!)
So, Syd is 6 weeks old today and going through her second growth spurt. This means that she is a little more grouchy than normal and wants to eat much more often. These add up to a tired Mom. I tried doing some light yardwork today but Syd screamed every time I put her down. We then came inside, she ate, and then fell asleep on my lap. And all was right with our little world again.
Syd had her Pediatrician visit last week and we were amazed by her growth. She weighed in at 10 pounds 12 ounces and 23 inches. This puts her in the 97th percentile in length and 95th percentile in weight. We are still trying to figure out who her real parents are.
By the way, people are asking why they haven’t seen Syd on the live cam yet. This is above her crib and she is still sleeping in the bassinet in our room for a couple more weeks. Check back then.

Back to Normal
Sydney turned 1 month old the other day. We just realized this. All the grandparents have now come and gone. Sydney can’t wait to see them again and show them all the new things she can do. Still playing with the hairstyle.

Race Day - Some Call It Sunday
Here Sydney is sporting her Jeff Gordon attire for Race Day. Unfortunately, the picture didn’t show it well but she has a big 24 on the bib and a DuPont logo on the leg. Grandpa is proud. Lets go racing!

Grandparents Part 3
So the Fuller Grandparents showed up today. They came in early so Dad had to pick them up at the airport. Once Grandma got in the car, she was hell-bent on seeing the baby ASAP (or that is my excuse) that she talked me into exceeding the posted speed limit and Dad had a run-in with the law. Anyway, so we get them to the house and soon after arriving we find that Herbie has some sort of poison fungus thing growing between his fingers. Needless to say he was banned from baby time and was “sentenced” to Zoysia duty. (If you know Herb, you know that is why he visits anyway.)

How I Spend My Days
In the early morning, I like to hang with my dogs. We lay on the bed and talk about what we are going to do for the day and how we will manipulate the parents.
During the afternoons, I like to cry and make my Mom hold me. I enjoy sleeping on her.
In the evenings, we like to sit outside and look around. Here I am sporting more of Dad’s corporate stylings.
