Mommy is not slacking off......

OK I know it's been a while since I blogged, but I've been busy! I had to finish the pom-poms for Syd's costume, work full time, attending a funeral, visiting my parents in Fairfax, killing off the inhabitants of the Roach hotel, Clean and disinfect the roach motel, fixing up and altering two of my costumes (cause there wasn't enough time to make two new ones), and of course taking care of Sydney, laundry, dishes...ok i'm gonna stop. I promise. But on the plus side, I feel like I've accomplished a LOT. Just to show some of my accomplishments this week: (just be glad i didn't post the Roach Hotel ones!)

Bedtime Routine

Every bedtime and Nap time we go through the same routine. Play with daddy or mommy or Aunt Ceh-Ceh then wherever we are in the house we race to her bed. It looks a little like this:



PS Look below to see what we're doing for Halloween!! Caution: It's goofy!

Insane, are we?

Halloween is my favorite time of year! Mostly for the fact that as an adult, I can play dress-up and get away with it. This year the theme of our yard is going to be an Insane Asylum in the goofiest sense. Complete with "Beware of Duck" (yes, duck) sign and an easter-egg tree. And of course no halloween decor would be complete without the goofy grin Jack-o-lantern! I got a few weird looks while i was putting up the easter eggs, but it's all in good fun. Halloween gets too scary sometimes. With Sydney being so little, I want her to think it's fun, not scary.
By the way...Sydney Loves the pumpkin and so far thinks the eggs are great! We even had to leave a few down so she could play with them.

Happy reunion!!!

When we woke Sydney up from her nap she wouldn't let us go! If that doesn't make me feel better, i don't know what will. My little girl DID miss us! Yay! She even got upset when we had to put her down in the car seat to go home. OK that wasn't so great, but some crayons and a few sheets of paper later and she was happy til we got home.

Sad mommy and Daddy

It's really sad when you miss your kid more than she misses you! Jesse and I have been mourning our little girl all week, and she's been livin' it up in Bluffton w/ Yaya and Pop and the rest of the Bowers clan down there! Everytime we check in with them, they keep assuring us she doesn't even miss us. And we get depressed.

VACATION

We're at it again. This time we're baby-less. That's right, Sydney's gone to Ya-ya's and Pop's house for the week and Mommy and Daddy are headed to Orlando. We'll be gone all week. We'll post pics and stuff when we get back! Ya'll don't miss us too much!
