Weekend away

Who looks mad???

Well, we spent a few days in Crested Butte this past weekend and had a really good time. Sydney now is nonstop turning from him tummy to his back which is really exciting. Now, trying to work with him to roll from his back to his tummy so he can play with his toys.

We did some nice hiking while here and really enjoyed the scenery. It's the off season, so trying to find places to eat has been difficult, but doable. We did find an excellent coffee shop that makes one of the best coffees that I think I have every had...Camp4Coffee. It is wonderful.

We're headed back home tomorrow and will start preparing for me to go back to work. It's a little scary, but gotta do it. Sydney still doesn't like the bottle, but we'll figure something out.

Rolling over

Here's Sydney in his new stand up toy.

Well today, Sydney rolled over twice in a row. Kind of exciting to see him moving around more. He is really starting to find his voice, too. He loves to talk and carry on a conversation with us. It is fun to see him grow and turn into this little human.

See below the video of him turning over.

Sydney also has an exersaucer now that he is loving. He likes to stand up all the time, but we get a little tired at times. Now he can stand up unassisted and hang out and play at the same time. It is fun to watch him explore and figure out how to use the various toys on the thing.

We're headed to the high country for the weekend, so I'm sure we'll have more fun pics and such from that. Until next time...hugs and kisses.

just started blogging

Well, a mom from the mother's group I've been going to inspired me to start blogging. I figure it's a good way for people to keep up with what's happening in our lives and in the life of our new little one.

So, to begin, Sydney is now 4 months old and is growing like a weed. He started off in the 5th percentile at birth and is now in the 95th percentile for weight.

Sydney is really moving around a lot these days really only staying in one spot. He is talking up a storm and is such a joy to be with and play with. He loves to cuddle with mom and dad and throws smiles at just about everyone.

In two weeks he will start daycare for a few days a week as mom has to go back to work. I know he will do great in daycare, but it is pretty scary to think about.

So, here's a start. Be looking for more additions as I get used to this. We are also going to try to upload some video on here as well so you can see him as a mover and a shaker.

Enjoy
