Growing up!

Wow do I have a lot to talk about! So much has been happening since mommy last posted, including me starting to "talk"! Mom tried to get a video uploaded of me but for some reason it's not working....if any one has any tips or tricks, let me know!

Anyways...

I've also discovered my hands...

I'm getting better at sitting up on my own...

I'm enjoying tummy time (well, sometimes :) )...

and I can hold onto my toys now!

I'm finally growing too. I had to start drinking all formula instead of mommy feeding me because I was being a lazy eater! In 8 days I didn't gain an ounce! But now I'm on the right track - The first two days on formula I gained 4 ounces and in the next 5 days I gained 8 ounces! Mom's just glad that's all figured out...

More soon!

Love, Syd

- don't I look so grown up in this picture! :)

State Fair and Crazy Hair!

Sorry it has been so long since mommy has posted new pictures! Lots has been going on - she's been so busy she just hasn't gotten around to it....but here you go!

A few weeks ago I took my first trip to the Illinois State Fair! Grandma and Grandpa Banovic were already up there to go see the Hereford cows so we decided to go meet them. We went to the horse races and got some great fair food (mom had a corn dog, lemonade shake-up, and a funnel cake). Then mom and grandma went on the Tilt-a-Whirl - it's their favorite! I'll ride with them some day. Then mom, dad, and grandpa played the "Whack-a-Mole" game and mom won me a fish! You can see it on top of my stroller in the picture. It was a lot of fun!

All worn out

Things are going well at home. I still LOVE bath time! I especially like getting my hair washed - as you can see, my hair looks quite crazy afterwards! Mom always brushes it down to make it all pretty but dad likes it when it's all messy!

More soon! Love, Syd
