Our Weekend

We had such a nice weekend, the weather was great. We took the kids to the park on Sat and Brian took Sydney again on Sun. She has so much fun running around she laughs and squeals, her favorite thing to do is swing she gets mad if they're both in use. We are trying to work on being patient. It's supposed to be nice again this weekend so I
'm sure we'll be back at the park.

Kaden is 7 weeks old now and is doing great. He'll sleep about 5-5 1/2 hours at night so he's almost sleeping through the night. We had his ears checked last week and they are looking so good, much improved. We go back next week and we'll find out if he has to wear the molds longer. He's growing so much we went up a diaper size about 3 weeks ago and I think we'll have to go up to the next size in a couple of weeks. He's already outgrown a lot of his clothes, I had forgotten how quickly they grow! He'll have his two month check-up in two weeks.

Sydney is doing better and is adjusting to being a big sister. Her favorite thing to do now is to get her two favorite blankets and a couple of her favorite toys and set-up a little spot to play it's usually behind the glider in the living room or in a corner in the sunroom.

Last week Sydney fell at daycare and had to get two stitches in her right cheek. It looked pretty bad, but it's healing quickly. She had the stitches removed today and it's looking good.

Christmas morning

Sydney and Kaden had a great Christmas. This video is from Christmas morning when Sydney first went into see the tree and presents. The first one she opened is a Go Diego Go rescue pack from her uncle Chris. She absolutely loves it.

Kaden Dalton Hodges

Kaden Dalton Hodges was born at 3:03 on December 8th. He weighed 7lbs 9oz. This is a video of his first bath.

Where is the baby?

We have been telling Sydney there is another baby due to arrive soon. She seems excited. She already likes to give the new baby kisses.

These Boots Are Made For Walking?

Sydney's Auntie Carol, Laura's good friend, gave her some pink boots for her birthday. They're still a little big for her, but she's learning to walk in them. I think the soles are a little slick and the heels throw her off balance too. Is it wrong that we were cracking up laughing?!?

Halloween

For Halloween Sydney was a ladybug. She had such a long day and had so much fun. Brian brought her up to my office then we stayed at home for trick-or-treating. She just had fun running around in the front yard and carrying her pumpkin. She was so tired that night she slept for about 12 hours. She was so distracted by everything she even kept her bow in!
