Friday night was the perfect night to take Regan to the Parade of Lights in New Ulm. The weather was perfect and Grandma Jan and Papa were more than excited to babysit Sidney for an hour. Regan was mesmerized by all the lights and kept saying "next time I'm going to ride on that one". Daddy said maybe we can convince aunt Vicky to have a float in next year's parade advertising her salon, Regan sure hopes so!

Happy Birthday Grandma Jan!
Grandma Jan came up this weekend to hang out with me and the girls while daddy went to the ACDC concert. It was Grandma Jan's birthday too so Regan helped open presents (and told her what was in it before she opened it) and baked a yummy angel food cake! The best part about angel food cake is that we can like the batter off the mixer and not have to worry about eating raw eggs; as you can see, Regan was in her glory!

A day in the life of an elf
We took the girls to the Macy's 8th floor display today! Although there was a 30 minute wait just to get in, Regan paitently waited her turn and enjoyed every minute of it :) Ryan said it best when he looked at Regan's face and how happy she was and said "it's worth it for her".
Sidney of course fell asleep.

Shots :(
This is a pretty cute smile for someone who just got shots. Sidney had her 2 month shots today, all 3 of them, and then another vaccine by mouth. She was so upset during and after the shots, but you wouldn't know it anymore! We even went to see Santa (pictures to come). She's a healthy girl according to the doctor, at 11 lbs 8 oz and 23.5 inches long, she falls in the 85th and 95th percentiles!

I'm a big girl too
Sidney has been practicing sitting up and she really likes the view of her world that way. We think she really likes watching whatever Regan is doing....we will soon have double the trouble!
Sidney's getting so big and has such a personality. I'm knocking on wood as I write this, but 4 out of the last 5 nights she has slept through the night! It's been wonderful :)

Richfield Centennial Baby
Last night, Sidney was recognized at a Richfield City Council meeting for being one of the "Centennial Babies". As you can see, she got a cute sticker (on her leg) as well as a piggy bank and some other goodies. Unfortunately, as we were walking out the door, Regan tripped and fell all the way down the stairs to the basement. Thankfully it's Minnesota and she was wearing her big puffy winter jacket and she more or less rolled down the stairs not hitting her head and no injuries. She even held onto a toy in her hand the whole way down. Mom and dad were scared out of their minds, but she promised she didn't get hurt at all. Whew. We're considering locking the stair gate again so we don't have that problem anymore.
SMILE!
Look at that precious smile! We knew if we were patient, we'd catch it on camera soon enough :) It's so much fun to get her smiling and see those gums. Today, for the first time, she fell asleep in the swing....this is huge as she has historically needed to fall asleep in my arms (usually while I do squats). The best part, is that this morning after falling asleep in the swing, she slept for nearly 2 hours in the swing! Eventually we'll make it to sleeping in her crib; baby steps!

Let it snow...
but no!!!! I'm not ready. I wish I was as enthusiastic as Regan is about the snow we woke up to this morning. She couldn't wait to get outside, good thing I bought boots for her yesterday! I was a little worried with what to do with Sidney while we were busy making snowmen and having snow ball fights, but she seemed pretty content sleeping in her carseat.
