First blogging attempt:)

Sydney is 6.5 weeks old and is really starting to smile at us. She seems to be the happiest laying on the changing table looking around her room . This is where we can get her to smile the most. She used to cry every time we changed her, but now she loves it!! She is so much more alert and aware of what's going on around her. She makes us laugh with her funny facial expressions and many smiles. With her in our lives, we are constantly reminded of God's goodness and love.

We had a family get together in Gatlinburg over the weekend. It is always so great seeing extended family and catching up with them. We just went up for the day Saturday since Sydney is quite unpredictable when it comes to bed time...well, really when it comes to any time! She was able to meet her great aunts and uncles, second cousins, and finally her first cousin Lydia! The Lyd and the Syd hadn't been able to really meet and greet until now. Unfortunately when Lydia was here when Sydney was only a week old, she had a cold. They had to meet through the glass door at our house. Enjoy the pics!
