So Big!

Sam & Sydney are getting so big! I wanted to share some recent pictures that make me smile :)

Sam & Syd are really enjoying their picnic table in their new play space in our basement.
A favorite thing is watching Sesame Street & more recently Toy Story.
It captures their attention for a few minutes at a time- it's a start.

They even sing to their babies like mommy & daddy sing to them

Christmas 2011

Christmas 2011- posted a little...well incredibly late- it seems I left them as drafts...oops.

The Indy Thorntons started Christmas on 12/24/11 in Indy- we opened presents & stockings, picked our favorites to take with us, then headed out to Ohio.

Sam & Syd got personalized chairs that rock- a favorite pastime of theirs.

In Ohio on 12/25/11-Christmas, Sydney shows "Grumpa" what she found in her stocking.
Sydney was a little confused about the mini red wagon for the mini Elmo she received- she though all wagons were for her. Below she is trying to sit on it...
Sydney sitting with "Uncle" Josh (pretty soon!) & Aunt Janessa

Sam & Syd enjoyed playing piano with daddy

Sam was worn out from all the hard work of opening presents
& just needed a rest with Grandma Lu

Back in Indy- Sydney wasn't the only one confused about the miniature toys.
Below Sam is trying to sit on Elmo's potty...at least he gets the concept?

Christmas at the Zoo 2011

Grandma Lu & Aunt Janessa were in town for Christmas at the Zoo this year.
Sam & Sydney were not interested in Santa,
but they did enjoy decorating cookies in Santa's Village.
Sam loved those sprinkles
Sydney did too

They really enjoyed eating the cookies- one of Sydney's favorite things.
She did get something from her mother ;)
I know it is late but hope you had a Great Holiday Season!
