Ok Before I start on the girls...I have a prayer request. My baby cousin Lacy's best friend (Christie Satterfield) finally got a double lung transplant on this past Saturday. Christie has battled cystic fibrosis since she was 18 months old. Her transplant went great and she is overall doing really good although she did have a bad night last night and is in a lot of pain so PLEASE keep Christie in your prayers. Here is her web site. She loves to get new comments in her guestbook so feel free to leave her one and let her know you are praying for her.

In big news at our house....Bayley has another tooth and a 3rd that you can see under the skin that hasnt broken through yet!!! Sydney spotted her 2nd tooth last night and Devin saw the 3rd tonight. This was out attempt to get a picture of her two teeth!

Bayley is such a booger and refuses to let us get a picture of her pearly white teeth but dont worry...I will win in the end! Bayleys tooth coming in explains the last few weeks of dealing with a fussy Bay, bad appetite, runny diapers, runny nose, diaper rash...this isnt just plain diaper rash...this is bleeding for days. It has been rough but she is better right now.

Bayley had really started playing a lot. She LOVES her toys. I think maybe even more than Sydney did. The other night I was putting a cloth diaper over my face and playing peek-a-boo tickle monster. Bay loved it. The next morning when she saw me she reached behind me grabbed a real diaper and stuck it on my head ...she wanted to play. Such a sweetie. SHe is really loving her WOOFs these days. She LOVES dogs.

Bayley has a new obsession. She LOVES shoes. At any given point you will see her dragging around a random shoe. It is hysterical. Sunday afternoon she was in the bedroom with Brian and she came to the living room dragging his dress shoes and put them right in front of the recliner whihc is where he sits to put her shoes on!!! She is brilliant. She doesnt say but 4-5 works, she cant point out a body part, she has no clue what we are talking aobut half the time but my baby knows where Daddy puts on his shoes!!! Victory for the Baybay!

In even more exciting news. Im scared to even put it in writing...but for 2-3 days BAYLEY HAS STARTED SLEEPING BETTER. She slept all night in her bed 1 night and last night she slept in there til 5:30. WOOOHOOO!!!!!!!!! We are so proud of our lil baby girl.
Ok on Sydney news, She is just as silly as ever!

Syd's knee is still hurt. She is having to go to physical therapy on her knee twice a week. She is has a tight hamstring. I cant tell that PT is helping that drastically. Hopefully she will get some relief or else soccer is going to be miserable.

School is HARD! The new AB schedule is really kicking everyone's booty. Having to juggle 8 classes instead of 4 has definitely proven to be a challenge. She is doing really well in a few classes, keeping her head above water in a couple of others and DROWNING in AP Biology. She has a 99.54 in Geometry (YAY SYD!), a 89.99 in Pre AP Chemistry, a 86 in PreAP English, a 82 in Pre AP History, and drum roll a 50 in AP Biology. Yup my honors student is STRUGGLING! She has studied like a mad person for this class and she has a 50. In all honesty, I have only found a hand full of students who actually passed the 1st test. They dont get points on HW so they have no way to pull their grade up except for tests so say a prayer that those test scores go back up. Syd is really working on study habits but if anyone has any helpful hints feel free to leave them.

Driving for Syd has been an adventure. So she has only scared the life out of me a few times. I need to get an emergency brake for the backseat so when Im sitting back there with Bay I can save us. Lets hope time improves her skills. lol

Anyway, that is all I can think of for now. I will try to not wait as long before I post next.
