Can you stand it?

6 Months Old

Dear Punky,

You are 6 months old. Amazing.

A day doesn't go by when you don't make me smile, laugh. A day doesn't go by that I don't end my day thanking God for you.

Daddy and I keep talking about how much you have changed in the last month. You laugh and smile so much easier. You turn your head when your hear your name. You roll side to side. You are practicing sitting up. You absolutly love the "jumpey" toys where you can stand and jump, jump, jump.

You love the dogs and smile anytime you see them. You also got your first scratch from Deacon's paw on your leg, and you didn't even cry!

You also went on your first airplane ride to CT to see Meme, Bubba, Auntie Becky, Uncle Mike, Ella and Chloe.

We are so excited for the coming months, Punky.

I love you more than words can say!

Love, Mommy

Easter 2012

Easter Morning came with Daddy still in bed from his ankle surgery so Syd and I headed out to church by ourselves. She looked adorable in her Easter Dress

Syd's first Easter Basket....don't tell her, but Easter snuck up on me and I ran out of time to order her own personalized basket to use in the years to come!

After church we loaded up Baby and Gimpy and headed to the Springs where Syd was passed from person to person for hours!

I seriously cannot believe our girl is almost 6 months old!

Sadie Sue Sue Dew

Dear Sadie,

You left us on March 21st and I miss you like crazy. For 11.5 years you were my faithful companion. You were a very naughty monkey who begged, stole food, started dog fights, barked like crazy and emptied trashcans. You were also my cuddle buddy who followed me everywhere. You made me laugh all the time.

Our life seems so strange without your larger than life personality. It still doesn’t seem real to me that you are really gone.

I hope you know how much we loved you. I am so sorry we couldn’t fix what was making you sick.

I know Zachey was waiting for you when you got there. Now, you can wait together for me. Be sure to find my Dad and give him a few kisses for me.

I will miss you the rest of my life, Sue Sue.

Syd and her Boy

Syd is a lucky girl to spend her days with this darling boy and his Mama! We are so lucky that we can go to work each day and not worry at all about our girl because we know Lisa loves her just as much as we do!
