Mommy and Sydney
It was a blast watching Sydney play with the goats. I was surprised how brave she was around them. It was fun!
Trish and Sydney at zoo
Here we are at the petting zoo... Sydney's favorite part of the zoo. I'm 7 and a half months pregnant. :)
Our weekend
This past weekend, we attempted to take a mini vacation to San Diego. We went to the San Diego zoo on Saturday. It was warm and we did a lot of walking. Sydney did surprising well. Even though her nap was pushed off until we left, she held up pretty well. When we got to the hotel, Sydney was still asleep, so we drove around for a few more minutes. Then we spent some time in the hotel pool. Sydney loves to jump in. We are working on building a healthy fear of the water in her. It's not working too well yet :)
Sunday morning was rough because Sydney did not sleep well at the hotel. We went to Sea World, but didn't stay long. I was hobbling along because my back was killing me. Sydney was overtired too. It was a fabulous experience! But, we survived and at least we tried to get out and enjoy ourselves.
Sydney was sooo excited to be home and played by herself the rest of the day. Maybe she'll be a home-body like me... but Luke highly doubts it!
We then visited our friends Tosh and Ashlyn and their new baby Jax. He is adorable and soooo small! It makes me more and more excited for our new baby, who will be here in 10 weeks! Yay!
Have you all been watching the Olympics? We love hearing the stories and watching the amazing athleticism. Of course, gymnastics has been the best to watch :)
Luke starts his next masters class this week. I cancelled my exercise class to avoid more stress and to protect my back a little more.
Luke's great uncle, Uncle Bob, passed away last week. I wish I had the chance to meet him, he sounded like such a great man. His wife, Bobbie Jean, is so precious and I just love her spunk. All of the Maddux family, etc are in our prayers this week.
We miss you all...

Goofy face
She gets so wound up at night before bed. She is cracking herself and us up with these funny faces.
Silly Sydney
Sydney figured out how to suck in her belly. It makes us laugh, so tonight she kept doing it. Her facial expressions are hilarious.

Water Balloons at Mills House
The girls had such a blast playing with the water balloons. Jonny was a good sport and kept refilling balloons, just to have the girls pop them immediately. Sydney cracked up every time a balloon popped.
Bailey, Sydney and Malyn
The girls always stand there to look at the neighbor's puppies. Sydney loves saying "puppy."
Sydney eating candy
Special day, Sydney gets to eat Twizzlers after the twizzler game. Aren't weekends fun?
Crazy Saturday
Today was so much fun.
Our good friends Ashlyn and Tosh had their baby boy, Jax. I spent the morning at the hospital while Luke played with Sydney at the beach. It was great being there with their families for an amazing miracle. Jax is beautiful and so tiny! I am in awe of what God did today. Ash and Tosh, thank you for letting me be a part of your special day.
This afternoon, we went to Jonny and Denise's for an Olympics celebration party, fun with games and everything! It was so neat to see the things that Denise has collected from China (she spent several weeks there a few years back).
Sydney really enjoyed playing with all the girls. I'll post some photos and videos soon...
Much love to all,
Trisha

Our week
So, this week was kind of busy for us. Luke has a lot on his plate with extra projects at work and he is taking over for people who are no longer working there.
Sydney had a few doctor appointments. The doctor is tracking the fluid levels in her ears. There has been fluid on her ears for the last few months, and quite possibly a lot longer. We will go back to the doctor in 3 weeks. Anyways... all of this may eventually lead to Sydney needing tubes in her ears so that she can hear better and have less chance of infection.
I was extra tired this week. Not sure why. Probably just the pregnancy wearing on me. I am not teaching my exercise classes this week. I'll start up again on August 18. My goal is to get more organized over the next few weeks as we keep preparing for the next baby. She is so active in my belly! It is a ton of fun feeling her flip around :)
Sydney had her second swim class with me this week. She had a great time in the water. I couldn't believe it! She laughed the whole time and kept asking me for "more." It was hilarious. She would stand on the edge and jump in, but not near me... she would try to jump away from me. I had to react quickly to catch her. We'll see how next week goes. :) The Ymca is so much fun. I hope we can keep going once we move to Colorado. It is such a constant in Sydney's life right now. We go everyday and she plays with other kids for over an hour.
Hope everyone has a great Sunday tomorrow.
Love,
Trisha
