long time no posts

We have just been busy here at the Wilson home. Here is what we have been up to in the past months.

Sydney has become very mobile!

Sydney and I took a trip to visit my family in Washington. Here is Grandma Moore with all the kids at the pumpkin patch.

My sister Tiffany and I at the pumpkin patch.

We found out that baby #2 is going to be a boy!!

This little lady turned 1 and had her first birthday party!

She dressed up as a witch for Halloween

Sydney's 7 month photo shoot

yeah yeah I know I am a little late on these but what they heck here are a few...

SURPRISE!!!

6 months

The little lady is now six months old! I can't believe it, the time has flown by. She is such a happy and enjoyable baby. We found out that she is lactose and tolerant and had to put her on soy formula. It made a world of difference for us during feeding time. We were having a rough patch there for a while and were frustrated we could not figure out what was wrong. I am so happy that we finally after a long month of April figured it out. She is rolling all over the place and loves to hold your hands while she stands. Sydney is in LOVE with our dog Howie!!! She will flap her arms with excitement when he is on his way over to her. Howie is really good with her as well. Her favorite thing is when he licks her hands, which I think is so nasty and I have to hold back my urge to tell him to stop. She loves music and I am constantly singing songs to her... poor thing though because her mother has a horrible voice! Her favorite thing is the bath. She loves the water and it is good thing too because it is already in the 100s here in Arizona. We have taken her swimming a couple of times and of course she loves it.
On another note, Kraig is starting another semester of school the end of this month. I am so proud of him for continuing school. I know it has to be hard to work full time, be a student, father and husband. But if I do say so my self he is pretty darn good at them all. One of my favorite things is every morning he is the first to get up and get Sydney and bring her back in bed with us for scripture time and he just snuggles her! He adores  his daughter and she adores him back. I am so grateful for a what a wonderful husband and father his is!!
Life is oh so good here in Arizona! I am continuing to do hair, which I love and being a mom. I wouldn't trade one day, yes even the bad ones for anything. Here are some pictures of our life!

4 month check up

Sydney had her check up today. She is 11.5 lbs and 23.76 inches tall :) we grow them small in our house. She is doing awesome and is just perfect! She had to get 3 shots and she only cried for a few minutes. She is now eating rice cereal for breakfast mixed with a little bit of veggies and she loves it! What an amazing sleeper we have On our hands! She sleep between 10 to 12 hrs a night and takes 3 naps a day that are close to 2 hrs at a time. Also she is in her crib in her room and she puts her self to sleep. Did I ever mention that my baby is amazing?! The dr did say he wants her to b eating 3 meals a day of rice cereal... So we will b working on that.
On another note I got mastitus for the 5 time this week! I went to see the dr and got on another antibiotic that I have not been on before and it is helping. But due tO having it so many times nursing is coming to an end. Sydney is growing out of nursing as well. She recently doesn't like it and gets frustrated. The dr said that bc of the mastitus my milk is more sour and it doesn't let down fast enough for her. So we are slowly cutting down the nursing feedings and I am going to try and pump as long as I can.

3 month photo shoot

We have been busy

November and December have just flown by in our house. Pretty much all of November we had family in town and it was so much fun!! My sister Tiffany come into town so that Kraig could go out of town for one of our very good friends wedding. She helped me get so many things done including putting up all my Christmas deco. Then she left and I got stupid mastitis. But my wonderful mom came 2 days later for 10 days! Then two days after that my step dad came, then the next day my brother Ryan came! We had a blast having Thanksgiving at your house this year with them. All the thanks to my mom  who pretty much cooked everything! She is an AMAZING cook!! Then the day after Thanksgiving my brother Mike and his wife Bekah came for Sydney's Blessing. Kraig gave our baby girl such a beautiful blessing! I am so grateful for a husband who honors his priesthood and is worthy to bless our sweet baby. It was such a beautiful day. And big thanks to my mother in law for letting us have a dinner get together over there after. I was sad to have everyone go and my house felt so quite when Kraig went to work and it was just Sydney and I at home. Boy it takes a lot longer to get stuff done  with out those extra hands helping  you.I got mastitis again the first week of December!! Ugh that crap sucks! I went back to work at Ulta for 2 days a week the second week of December. It was a really hard week for me! But I do love my job and clients and I am only working 5 hrs each day so it is not too bad. Also, the extra money is a big help too!! We also celebrated our 5 yr wedding anniversary this month. I can't believe  how fast the time has gone. I have such a wonderful husband and I am so blessed to have him in my life. He is a great father and is always there to help me anytime I need him. I am so thankful for all of his hard work so that I only have to work 2 days a week and stay home with our baby. Sydney has been such a good baby I really can't complain. She is doing anywhere from 5 to 8 hrs in then night. Even when she does 5 I only have to get up once in the night, which is so nice. The nights she does 8 are  AMAZING!! She is smiling all the time and talking a lot as well. She is even starting to giggle. It is so dang cute!! I love my baby and I love being a mom. It is the best and most rewarding job ever! We are excited to have a baby in our home for Christmas, even though she has no idea what is going on.We hope you all have a wonderful Christmas!
