a Stylish visit

Steph and Kyle came from Portland for their annual visit!  We were so happy to get to have them to ourselves for several days.  They were able to meet Sidney (luckily) after his little colic spell ended!  We had a wonderful time catching up, playing with the baby, watching the new True Blood, taking lots of walks, cooking good meals, touring downtown Cedar Falls, karaoke, ping pong, and air hockey were a must,  and we even got a sitter to go to a movie!  It was a great few days.... here are some photos to share!

Who's laughing at who? Sidney enjoyed all of Steph's crazy faces!

 J and I made a crazy purchase while in downtown Cedar Falls for Sid. We just couldn't resist this fabulous wooden spaceship ( with aliens, space men, moon-lander, and more!)

 We needed to end the time together with a delicious cupcake from Scratch Bakery! 
We miss you guys already!

summer visitors

Jeremy and I have been enjoying being home this summer with Sidney.  We take walks every day, read books, play with his new toys, and go to garage sales looking for fun new things for Sid. He is growing so fast and changing all the time.  Today was his two month appointment.  Sidney now weighs 10.8 lbs, and is 23 & 1/4 " long.  He smiles all the time and is starting to hold his toys on his own.  He has slept through the night several times, but I still get up nervous that he doesn't wake up!
We have had lots of friends and family come to meet and visit us.Tomorrow we are going to take Sidney to the lake for the first time. This is the longest drive we have taken with him so far.
Here are a few pictures of some of our fun!  Happy summer everyone!

Family Shower

My mom and my sister Christy held a wonderful shower for Sidney on May 14th.  We had a tasty brunch which I was able to enjoy because Sidney sacked out!  He missed all the great gifts but woke in time for us to sing and have cake!  We were so happy to introduce baby Sid to our fabulous families. Thanks so much for the gifts, we so appreciated them all!

The cake....
Luckily everyone got a chance to hold Sidney before the shower ended.  What a wonderful day!



xoxo Sidney, Wendy, and Jeremy
