Sydney’s First Birthday!

Well, the day had finally come, where our little girl turned the old age of one. We had two birthday parties for her, one with her friends around her age, and then later in the day a BBQ with family and friends. Here are some of the pictures from the day. Click here for ALL of them. You can also click on any of the following to see them larger.











Tutu

As per my earlier post here, Sydney was all dressed up in her pink tutu for the dance recital. The last picture was from my iphone, and we did take a better picture (with a better camera) at home earlier, so I thought I should put it up. She honestly kinda liked it.
Something was funny

We are not really sure what was happening here, but you know when kids get into that ‘mood’ where ANYTHING is funny, and they act like its the funniest thing they have ever seen – this was it. Maybe she was tired, or had too much sleep, but either way – this is why people have kids!


Blocks

We had gotten a set of blocks for her birthday, and the game quickly turned into how many blocks dad could stack up before Sydney knocked em over. Sometimes 2, other times, about 10.
Pretty in pink
This picture was taken at my cousin Jarrett and Alisa’s daughters birthday. She was all dressed up and the headband was actually still on her head (as long as she forgets about it, we are good – so nobody tell her!)
Bear-Hug

Sydney and her inseparable bear. She drags it around everywhere, and although its supposed to be pink…its usually the colour of dirt. Anyhow, we say ‘hug’ and she gives it a good hug. Sadly, his hug would have snapped its poor neck.
Pool time
Jamie had purchased a small paddling pool for Sydney, so we got her dressed up in her bathing suit. She really didnt know what was happening here yet, but still cute!
Innocent Me?
No matter what, this picture may look like she is innocent, trust me – she is not. I am pretty sure 30 seconds before this picture she threw all her food on the floor for the dog.
Ridin in the wagon

With some warm-ish (and wet) weather lately, we were finally able to take Sydney out in her wagon she got for her baby shower from great aunt and uncle Smith.
