2 months!

May 10 - 2 months old

The tail end of a smile - Sydnei smiles often and has begun cooing

Her two month stats from her Doctors appointment:

11 pounds 4.5 ounces (50-75%)

23 1/4 inches in length (75-90%)

head circumference 15 1/2 inches (50-75%)

When she got her shot baby girl scrunched her face up but never cried!!! She only got one of the three shots (since there are 7 vaccines in 3 different shots) so we will see if getting two next week will push her past the scrunched face. Sure hope not - I hate seeing my children cry in pain.

One Month

Our darling girl is creeping up on two months but I wanted to post her one month pictures before June 10th gets here. Her position cracked us up:) It is amazing how babies can sleep in the craziest positions
Sydnei May 10th - one month

Dylan and Sydnei

One Month Old blessing!

Mother's Day Pictures

Psalm 127:3 Behold children are a gift of the Lord. The fruit of the womb is a reward.

This verse does get to the bottom of being a parent! There may be many tough days and nights but it is all worth it. I have been so blessed to be the mother of 3 of God's gifts.

Dylan Rory, Sydnei Leighanne and our angel in heaven!

Sorry that the two pictures of Sydnei are side ways. I will try to do better next time but am making no promises;)

Family Time II

The Fredrick side of the family arrived to meet sweet Sydnei. She is Nana and Papa Steve's first granddaughter. As a friend of mine said prior to Sydnei's arrival - "Go Team Pink"

The whole clan:) Always good to get together Dylan and Trey had a great time playing outside - thank goodness for pretty weather when you have two male toddlers in the house:)

Aunt Megan and Sydnei

Sydnei wasn't the only one being celebrated during this weekend visit. It was Mom and Dad Fredrick's birthdays. Nana LOVED the black candles;)

There has been nothing but love for his sister since she arrived home.

Que Pasa Pops!

Our Newest Blessing Has Arrived!

Sydnei Leighanne arrived at 10:46am April 10th. She was 8 pounds 1 ounce and 19.5inches in length. A big girl but petite compared to her brother and some of the Dr's predictions.

Dylan meeting his baby sister.
We have been blessed with a son who is loving and tender with his little sister.
I always wanted a big brother. Not to replace my awesome older sister but in addition to her. Now our little angel has a big brother to look out for her.

Pops and Gau-gau meeting little Sydnei their newest granddaughter.
My dear parents were here for Sydnei's arrival and were able to spend quality time with their grandson while Mom and Dad were in the hospital. Pops was a real trooper watching me walk around the house April 10th doing my Lamaze breathing as Rory drove home from work. ;) I can only guess that he was praying Rory would make it home quickly. Thankfully Rory did because an hour after we made it to the hospital Syndei arrived. I had planned on laboring here at home for as long as possible. It worked though my honey thinks I cut it a little close;)

Our family of FOUR!!!!!
Rory and I are so grateful to our Creator for blessing us with another one of His children to raise!! Praise God for family
