Sydney is ONE!

Sydney is ONE!  She had a great birthday party with family and she loved playing with these streamers!  Her cousin Patricia would run through them with her and she had such great belly laughs!!

Aunt Amber wraps the prettiest presents!  She kept going back to this one and playing with the pretty ribbon!

What is this you are giving me?  Looking so curious!  

Sydney's 1 year photos

I wanted to get some pictures of Sydney at age 1.  We took her to JCP studio on Friday night and that was a complete disaster.  Turns out trying to get a 1 year old to stand still for 1 second to get a picture is about impossible.  So Brian and I thought we would try and get a picture on our own.  We took her to the nature park by our house and had much better success.  The key to our success…..we put shoes on Sydney for the first time.  She had no idea what to do and stood completely still!  It was perfect!  Here is a sample of some of the pictures I snapped:

This is fun mom! 

I want to walk but my feet feel weird! 

She poses so nice for photos!! 

Such a pretty girl

She was having a blast! 

One of my favorites!

Little ham! 

So many distractions!
