Relaxin' with Pa/Baking with Granna/First Bath at Home/Just a Swingin'




We're staying really busy around here and having a whole lot of fun! My mom went home tonight after supper, but before she left, she and Dane were so kind and made us some banana nut bread. We found out this week that Dane absolutely loves banana nut bread, and if left alone with it, could probably finish off an entire loaf on his own. So, this was really fun for him to get to learn how to make one of his favorite foods with his Granna.

Tonight, we decided we would give Sydni her first bath at home. Of course, until her umbilical cord falls off, it's just a sponge bath, but we still decided to make it a grand event. Dane was extremely helpful, and loved getting to be involved. As soon as we started, Sydni started sucking her thumb. It was so cute.






All weekend, we had been really disappointed because we didn't think that Sydni was quite ready for her swing yet. Then, I remembered tonight that there is a reclining setting on the seat, so that her little head won't fall forward. So, as we speak, she is resting peacefully in her swing. Over the past month since we got the swing, Dane has become very familiar with it and all of its settings, so we got him to pose behind the swing. Every so often, he goes up to the swing and shows Sydni some of its great features.





I think that we're all going to try to get in bed early tonight, since this is our first night alone. We've got doctor appointments Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday of this week, so I know that we will stay pretty busy. Hope you are all well.

I love the pictures of the kids w/there grandparents!
Dane is so helpful! I can tell he will be the protective big brother as Syndi grows up.
We miss ya'll!
