This & That

This is as fancy as it gets for Ryan. Anything with bottons or a collar is a really big deal. Ryan starts Pre-K in August. He will have to wear a uniform every day, including a shirt with a collar. Can't wait.

We went to our favorite festival a few weeks ago...Lemonade Days! Ryan loved the Ferris Wheel, and he even wanted to go on the small roller coaster. But, just like in the movie "Big," when we got to the front, he was not allowed on the ride. He took it like a champ, and went on the Elephants instead!

Sydney kept cool while Ryan went on the rides.

Here is what Ryan is into these days:

Asking how old everyone is

Asking what color/what pound bowling ball people can pick up

Talking about his imaginary friends GiGi, GaGa, Burp and Antobe

Superheros

Star Wars

Sports

"Things that are cool"

Eating yogurt and cereal mixed together

5 Months!

Sydney has had a pretty big 5th month! She can now roll from front to back, and back to front. She makes lots of noises...spitting, loud happy screams, blowing bubbles, but still really not crying except when hungry or tired. Sydney is starting to notice Charlie (and Charlie is noticing Sydney) and she even looks at him and smiles. We finally took Sydney out of her swaddle at night, and after a couple of nights, she did just fine. She sleeps about 10 or 11 hours a night, which is perfect!

Sydney's favorite activities:

Laying on the bed looking at or eating her fingers

Getting hugs from Ryan

Watching Ryan play

Going for walks in the stroller

Bathtime

Making crazy noises
