Sydnee is 11 months old! She is such a joy! Especially now that she is sleeping through the night. Sydnee was sleep trained this month and had a few rough nights but is doing great now. She naps like a champ. Sleeps for two hours in the morning and then 2-3 hours in the afternoon. Sydnee still uses army crawling as her main way to get around. She goes everywhere in the house and is happy to find her own mischief. Sydnee's hair is thickening and she is getting a little different look about her. Maybe a little more Lindstrom in there? Sydnee loves to eat real food and is less and less interested in baby food. She doesn't have any teeth so she gums it all with the best of them. We all love her and the kids fight to entertain her!
Happy Birthday to Ronnie! We had a low-key day but it hopefully wasn't too disappointing for the birth boy. I loved how all kids (that were able to) congregated around him for the opening of presents. Also, the kids helped me make signs to hang up and the list Kendree made had me laughing out loud. "Stricked!" (Strict). We love our Daddy!
I had a wonderful Mother's Day! The only picture I took was with my wonderful mom! I have amazing mothers in my life. My Mom, my mother-in-law, my grandmas, sisters, sister-in-laws and so many wonderful mothers I'm not technically related to. I love that we get to celebrate one another on this day, and I love the six little ones that I am blessed to mother in my own home.
Easton's track meet was this week. He competed in the shuttle relay, the 45m hurdles and the softball throw. This team was winning by a long shot at the relay when their anchor tripped and fell. So sad! They still took 3rd. In the hurdles, he won his heat and took 5th overall and he had a great throw in the softball throw but didn't place. It was a sunny, warm beautiful day and we had a great time!
On May 18th, my brother, Adam, graduated with his MBA. It was great to be there to support him Especially because it was in the Arena Auditorium and concessions were open. When was the last time you had nachos at a graduation?
Good morning from Cheyenne! (May 21st).
Happy Birthday Sydnee! I can NOT believe you are one. This year has flown by. Well, except for those months of 3-4 times a night wakings. Anyway, we love you sweet girl! Can't wait for our celebration with family this weekend.
Easton earned some major favorite brother points when he volunteered to help Brynlee paint her nails today.
Kendree had her presentation on the Keefe Cottage on May 24th and did awesome! IT was fun to learn about the history of buildings around Cheyenne!
Also, on May 24th, Easton had a band concert. He is in the red shirt (Back row, second from left) playing trumpet. He is doing great!
Sydnee got her party today! She loved her cake! The first two pictures are from when she first saw it and then when we made her wait while we sang Happy Birthday. She thoroughly enjoyed as much as we let her have!
Sydnee didn't do much unwrapping, and once she unwrapped the baby bottle she never let it go, but she was spoiled by those that love her!
We loved having Grandma with us over the long weekend! Any time with her is so wonderful!
The three little girls and I were able to join in on Devynee's field trip to the Terry Bison Ranch. We had a great time and the baby bison were the cutest!
I wonder where Hallee is hiding!?!?! I love how little kids play hide and seek.
