Labor Day Weekend

We've had a good Labor Day weekend. We went to Orlando and shopped around on Friday. We went to the pool on Saturday. We left early since there was a Caddyshack moment. You know the BabyRuth in the pool! They had to clear everyone out to clean it and add more chemicals. Since we had to wait 30 minutes to get back in, we just went to the park and went home. Sydney was definitely the prime suspect since she was the youngest. But I can say with confidence that is was not her. I know this for many reasons that I'm sure you really don't want me to discuss! Today, we went to a friend's house for lunch and to swim. It was really nice and relaxing weekend. Below, is some pictures from this weekend.
I love this picture. Sydney is reading a book and using Dixie as her pillow. As you can see, Dixie could care less.
She gets so busy when she plays. We removed the couch cushion (as you can see). She loves to play on it. Jumping, crawling, you name it - she does it. Her favorite things these days is Elmo (just like her cousin Karalyn). Thankfully we don't have too much Elmo stuff. The 2 dolls and 2 books. I swear Sesame Street knew what they were doing. I think that sat around choosing a character that had the brightest color and the easiest name every baby could say. Great marketing if you ask me! She can spot Elmo from a mile away too. Example: We're at Target. "Elmo, Elmo, Elmo!" I don't see an Elmo - oh wait - is that a one inch Elmo doll way in the back corner of the store? Why yes, it is. "Good job Sydney! I do see Elmo."

Here's her tired look coming home from the pool. Nap time!

Hope everyone had a good weekend too.

I think it was secretly Becky. That's how she knew it wasn't Syd. :)

Karalyn was happy to see the "sleeping dog" but most happy to see "Sydney's Elmos". Licensed characters in your house? say it ain't so!

I see you decided on the Britax carseat. I hope you like yours as much as I like ours.

I'm confident in saying it was not Matt or myself either!! : )

We love the Britax. That thing is so plush and cushiony, I don't know why Sydney doesn't always want to ride in it!
