My gorgeous girl.

Both of my gorgeous girls!!! Sydney loves it when Hannah plays on the ground so that she can get very close to her.

Last weekend, we traveled to Warsaw, Indiana. Scott's best friend, Luke and his wife Beth, are expecting their first child any day now. Her due date is this Friday. Her doctor is thinking that her baby is large so doesn't want her to go over too much. They are both so excited and the baby's room is all set up cute. They didn't find out what they were having so it will be a total surprise!! Please keep them in your prayers as they are having so many things go on at once in their lives!

Luke and Beth have several large old trees in their yard, so we raked up some big piles of leaves for Sydney to play in. She loved it. But then she found an ash pile from someone burning leaves and was in it before I could catch her. Kind of a mess! Their house sits on Lake Chapman. This time of year the water was a dark, intense blue...it was beautiful.

Sydney has been fighting nap time lately. According to baby magazines, children need naps until they are about 5. So, it isn't that she doesn't need a nap, it is that she doesn't want to stop during the day and take a nap. And now that she is in a toddler bed, she is all over the place. She does great at night in her bed, but struggles during the day.

Erica and the boys are coming up for a visit today and we are all excited. We have a list of activities planned such as playing with play dough, paints, decorating cookies, movie night, etc. I will be sure to take many pictures.
