Sydney is Two!
Today is Sydney’s birthday. It was difficult to get a decent photo of her, but I was determined. After all, she only turns two once. Unfortunately. I would love to keep her just like this for at least seventeen years or so.
She wanted to play outside for a bit just before bedtime, so I told her to put her shoes on. This is what she chose. I love her.
All of Us
Last weekend when our friends came to town, they got a few photos of us. All four. Together! Here’s my personal favorite.
Then this little cutie.
Happy Birthday Party
We had the kids a small combined birthday party two weekends ago, and they had a blast. It’s hard to believe Mason is 3 and Sydney is nearly 2. Phew!
Don’t miss a cameo by their BFFs Shelby and Bo.
Mason turns 3!
Today was Mason’s third birthday. We celebrated with an ice cream cake and just a couple little presents, since we’re having the kids’ joint party in a couple weeks. For comparison to last year’s rocking chair photo, click here.
On the Tricycle
Nevermind that Sydney’s feet barely reach the pedals, or that she can’t quite figure out how to make it go. She was determined to “ride” the tricycle yesterday. And who can blame her, really, since it was the first day we’ve been able to get outside to play in months.
Ordinary Winter Morning
Every morning is pretty much the same around here, and certainly nothing exciting to capture. But the sun did make an appearance in our window today, which Sydney was enjoying. Mason, however, wouldn’t stop playing with his Tag Reader enough to even look at me!
Photo Booth
I took the kids to the mall today for some Chick-Fil-A, and to get Mason a hair cut. On our way out, we stopped in the photo booth. I loved it! Look at all our tongues sticking out in the second one!
“Wear the hat?”
Today, while Mason was still asleep, Sydney brought this blue hat and asked to wear it. She was pretty cute, so I got out my camera. I had her look out the window to tell me what she saw, and would you believe there was a monkey AND an elephant out there?
Mason – The Closeup Outtakes
When I was taking the kids photos last week and got those closeups, it took me literally about four photos to get that fantastic smile from Sydney. Mason….well let’s just say it takes a little more effort to get him to give me a genuine smile. Here are some of the ones that almost made it…but not quite.
