Sydney Finally Gets a Bike!!

We have been working on getting Sydney to sleep in her own bed all night long, and promised to buy her a bike if she would sleep in her bed a certain number of nights in a row. She finally met the quota, so we got her a bike. She absolutely loves it. She has been on it twice and already is so good at riding it. She steers so well, and it is so cute to watch her ride. These pictures are of the first day that she rode. Someday, if we ever learn how to post video we will show you that. Until then still pics will have to do. Also some more pictures of her posing for the camera. She is turning into such a big girl. I am exctied to see how she acts when this little boy gets here. She'll be so cute and helpful I'm sure. We are 36 weeks now and I go back to the doctor on Tuesday. We went this last week and she said that there is no progress yet, so we'll see what this week holds. She said if I make it to 37 she'll let me be induced anytime after that. Hopefully my mom will make it to see him born. If he's anything like Sydney he'll stay put. I'm feeling more and more miserable, but that is to be expected I suppose. Nick has been a huge help in getting things ready. Today for my birthday he bought me some super cute picture frames to decorate the kid's room with. I'm excited to put some pictures in them. He also got me some new rubber scrapers, some really nice facial cleanser and a zit pen. I'm so excited to use them.

Happy Birthday Laurel!!! We love you!

Congratulations to Sydney on being such a big girl and looking so darn cute on her new bike!

P.S. In your last post, your preggo pic, is that a bird in the background? Do you guys own a bird?!?!?!

Laurel said...

No bird just a bird cage. As if I could ever own a bird. The thing would be dead in an hour if it was noisy. Funny!

Laurel you're getting so close!! I'm so excited for you! I know how those last few months, let alone weeks, feel! Is there a reason you get to get induced early? Or just because you're awesome and waiting is a bummer?!
