Sleeping Through the Night No More...

I think I jinxed us by saying Sydney was starting to sleep through the night.  It was clearly a tease...  Note to self, don't mention baby daughter's sleeping patterns to anyone in the future... ;)

Happy Birthday Linds

Sydney at play :)
I guess I'm old now.  I'm officially 35! I had a great birthday week - I ran playgroup on Tuesday which was a lot of fun, and then we had a fun birthday BBQ with Laura, Scott and Noah.  Laura and I share the same birthday so it seemed fitting to spend the day together!  While we were there, Sydney got to play in the Jumparoo - check out the pics.  She's not too sure about it yet, but in the 45 minutes she was in it (yes, it kept her attention for 45 minutes!!) she was starting to move around on her own by the end.  What a fun development to watch :)
She's so little in the big door frame!

Sydney is starting to figure out the Jumparoo

Even the Jumparoo can't distract from putting her hand in her mouth


Wednesday we went out to a nice birthday dinner at Jelly Fish (while Sydney slept in the pram) and I enjoyed a pedicure mid week as an extra special treat :) 

Saturday we took the ferry into the city to hit the Rocks Markets and the NSW Wine Festival in Hyde Park.  It was a beautiful day and lots of fun was had by all!  We only found one wine at the festival that we thought was worth buying but that's ok because we're running out of room for wine to bring back with us anyway ;) 

Another busy week ahead.  Hard to believe we only have 3 weeks left...

Mom, I'm getting kind of tired...

We use David's reg set for her to stand on in the exersaucer

Tummy time at Yummy Mummies workout - Syd, Tom, Lachie

Sydney Loves the Exersaucer!

So many toys, so little time!
We got an exersaucer for our little Sydney Bug this week.  She LOVES it!  Check out how smiley she is!  She’s standing on David’s regulator set so her feet will touch the ground and she can spin herself around :)

The Australian Open for Surfing is in Manly this week.  The Beach is SO busy!  We didn’t see much of the actual competition - just experienced the influx of people in town!  The weather has been beautiful finally which is a nice change of pace from all the rain we’ve been getting.
Check out the stage for the Australian Open



At 4 months old, Sydney is just starting to sit up on her own.  She fell over right after this picture was taken :)
Sitting up!


I was lucky enough to enjoy a GNO with a few of my fellow Manly Yummy Mummies this week.  We went to Harlem in Manly.  What a great night!  Thank you Daddy for taking care of our little girl while I was out :)

Sydney is 4 Months Old!

I can't believe how time flies.  Sydney is already 4 months old!  She is pushing up and has rolled over a few times on her own but I wouldn't say it's a consistent thing yet and it doesn't appear to be deliberate ;)  I'm biased for sure, but I think she gets cuter every day :)
Sydney loves sucking on Mommy's fingers


I cut off her "rat tail" this week.  For some reason her hair grew faster in the middle than on the sides...  No rat tails in the Adams family, thank you very much!  heehee.

Daddy took Sydney to Playgroup this week because I had a dentist appointment.  He got rave reviews from the other mothers in my mothers group.  I'm so proud of him for being brave enough to attend as the only father :)  Nice work, babe!

4 months old!  I love tummy time!

Playing the piano is fun!

Sydney loves Sophie the giraffe :)
We've been busy selling things and getting things organized for the big move.  My there's lots to do!  The sun is out and we're off to a birthday gathering for my friend Sheridan this afternoon.  Bring on the bubbles!
