Sydney & Bayley's Proud Mommy: 2009

1/3/11 Well first I have to say ...OBVIOUSLY Im SUPER behind on my blog. I just havent been motivated to blog lately but I definitely still want to get it caught back up and start blogging more often. So be prepared for loads of updates soon! :))
Now back to November , 2009
11/8/09 Sydney, her friend Joanna, Bayley and I participated in the fundraising walk for the American Foundation for Suicide Prevention. We joined TEAM SPIRIT which was founded by one of my best friends Cindi McGee. Cindi's kids lost their dad to suicide in 2005 so the walk was very bittersweet! It was an honor to walk with Cindi, Hannah & the rest of the gang.

Bayley enjoyed some playground therapy while the rest of the group walked!

Check out that hair :)

Three of my favorite girls!

Bayley enjoying the beautiful day!

This is a blast from the past...here is Sydney in some of her favorite pj's ever!! Clown Pjs with Simba houseshoes were a must!!

haha now here is Bayley in the same pj's!!! Only slightly older lol

11/13/09 My parents took us out to the Comedy Club for an early Christmas Present. We went to see James Gregory's clean show! It was a great night. Sydney Joanna Amanda & Chandler all babysat Bayley for us. Im happy to report Bayley survived!!!

Alan & Chris....looking her best ;P

Lacy & Bud.

James Gregory...kept us laughing all night.

Mother & Daddy!

Dean & Dewayne

Me & My Baby Cousin!

My sweet family (minus the babies)

Brian went to Bayley's Thanksgiving Program in 2K. He said it was very cute.

As you can see ... Bayley was more interested in sucking her thumb than singing! :)

hahaha I love this one.

Baybay definitely enjoyed her cookie after the program.

11-23-10 Sydney went to her very first Alabama Football game with Lacy!

She really liked it!

MY BAMA GIRLS!

haha I guess this picture sums up October ... YEE HAW!!! lol It was an action packed month!!!

We went to the river for some much needed relaxation one saturday afternoon. It ended up being quite funny because Sydney wanted to try fishing... as you can see below...it didnt work out that great and just ended up frustrating her to no end! lol

but it was relaxing before she got on her mission to catch the big one lol Bayley loved being outside with the cousins.

Brody was SUCH a sweetheart and pulled Bay around in the wagon! lol That wagon has gotten a lot of use over the years! lol

One Saturday was Bridesmaid fitting day for Rae & Stephens wedding. It was fun to see all the girls. Rae had kinda picked out a style of dress for each girl but had backups if anyone didnt like theirs ... well all the girls loved their dresses!!! These are samples of course but the actual color is really pretty.

I think this picture sums up where the trouble will end up being from the bridesmaids :)

Part of the ladies!

By the time we tried Bayley in a dress she was NOT exactly happy! lol She made this picture because we were teasing her about getting rid of her paci! lol Girlfriend was NOT thinking that conversation was very funny at all.

Rae & lil miss SASS!!!

I do belive we have the best lil kids class teachers ever! lol Emily decided to have a halloween party for the lil ones. Bayley had a great time! Emily red them books & they played games & watched a movie (or they attempted)!

Emily getting ready to read to our munchkins!

October brought HOMECOMING for Sydney at school! I dont know about yall but in PG this is a very big deal!!! They have all sorts of dress up days and a constant battle between the Juniors & Seniors! I guess the next picture tells you what side Syd was on!!!

Chandler, Syd & Breanne on Wack Walker day!!!! They were supposed to dress WACKY and so all the girls borrowed Chandlers crazy colored clothes! lol They thought they were too cute!

The Triangle of friends!

Sydney & Landon on athlete day. Sydney had on Landons baseball pants!

hahaha ooo well this has a story behind it! The girls worked SUPER HARD making these cute shirts!!! They obviously were supposed to spell Juniors 2011 but some MEANIE stole Chandlers shirt so the O in Juniors was missing! lol

The backs!!!! They had their nicknames and 11 on them.

Leave it to my child to fix the situation. They swapped the zero to the O in Juniors and made chandler a zero out of poster board! lol Just how cute are they !!!!

Syd & Meleah !!!

October also brought lil miss Lila's second Birthday!!! She has a GREAT Party!!! It was a tinkerbell party!!!

Lila is Bayley's lil bestie at church! If you even mention church Bayley says two names "Mrs. Shushan & Lila!!! Happy birthday Sweet Lila! We love you very much!

Bay & Jazzy

Kim had the BEST birthday party activity!!! The kids (old and young) painted pumpkins!!! She even brought shirts for the lil ones to change into so that we didnt ruin clothes! As you can see Bayley really got into it!!! Obviously Bayley will be my artistic child as you will soon see!!!

Sydney had a great time paiting her pumpkin.... but she was wrong somewhere...VERY wrong... and SHE KNEW IT!!! so what did she do????

She signed MY NAME to it so that people would think that I painted the hideous thing!!! I mean seriously.... who signs their name to a pumpkin???? This is definitely a pumpkin that only a momma could love! lol

October also brought Bayleys first trip to the pumpkin patch!!! It was so much fun! We several families from church there and even though it rained a little when we first got there...the shower blew over and we had a great time!!!

Sydney was rethinking the whole NO Make-up thing!!! lol

Lil miss Thing had a great time picking out her pumpkin!!! and boy did she take long enough picking it out!!!

hahaha Syd somehow doesnt look quite the same as Bay did when she was sitting on her pumpkin! lol

Pam took our family picture on the Hayride! Bayley was a lil nervous at first but she got into it after a few minutes!

Overall I have to say Our first Pumpkin Patch trip was a HUGE Success!!!

well.... except for maybe the pony ride....this is the closest she got to the cute lil pony! lol

This is funny to me... Bay was in the petting zoo with Pam ... they were looking at the chickens and a big ole turkey... problem is ... Bayley is PETRIFIED of feathers...Im talking girlfriend loses her composure if she sees a feather laying on the floor! It is a lil funny and a lil sad at the same time! lol I guess she didnt realize those things attached were actually feathers! lol

This day also brought another BIG milestone for Bayley....... DRUMROLL PLEASEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE........................................................................................... Bayley Lauren Maddox now has LIMITED access to THE PACI!!!!! That is right...her very bestest friend....her big old honker daddy paci is a VERY LIMITED buddy now. It was time...technically it was past time. lol We have noticed some spacing issues with her front teeth so before things get worse we decided to make the plunge...I had planned to start limiting her paci on Sunday October 25th but we unintentionally went to the pumpkin patch without a paci on the 24th and since we had made it most of the day we decided to go ahead...so our BIG GIRL now only gets her Paci at night night time!!!! ... and occasionally in the car on a big trip if needed ;) haha She has asked about her Paci A TON but I am happy to say we survived the initial seperation and things seem to be going good!!! My baby girl is growing up!!!

Syd also had a first this weekend....she went to her very first Haunted House!!! Syd went to Atrox with some friends and had a great time and survived!!! lol

The Friday before Halloween we went and trick-or-treated at Don & Gails with Corra & Becca. The girls had a great time playing! Are these two not the cutest Snow White's EVER!!!

haha we were trying to get a picture of all three girls together....it wasnt working...so I told Syd to get on her knees and try to get Bay to scoot by Becca and smile...when Syd got on her kneess...Bayley did too!!! lol

awwww Our Maddox Girl's Costumes!!!

HALLOWEEN 2009..... What a fun time!!! Bayley was of course Snow White!!! and what a cute Snow White she was!!!

We went to the church for Trunk or Treat! It was a lot of funn.... well to us it was...Bayley didnt agree! lol She was PETRIFIED of anyone in costume!!! lol Especially the big peoplesss (grownups of course) She did like the snack foods with Papa!

haha this is pretty much what she looked like the whole time we trick or treated!!! Poor baby was scared to death....kept saying...I go home...I go home!! lol

hehe Lila didnt care of Halloween either.....but definitely was more relaxed than Bay! lol Jaz looked super cute tho!

Syd missed Trunk or Treat. She spent the weekend with Rae in Jasper. They went to Alisha's halloween party! Syd was a nurse! she looked so grown up...well except for the flip flops! lol Something tells me Brookwood NICU will require real shoes with their uniform!
