Big Girl

I finally put her face forward in her new big girl car seat. She was hilarious this morning! I buckled her in and she didn't smile, laugh, talk or anything. She was just staring at me like "Mom, have you lost your mind?!?!? You put me in the car wrong!!" She rode all the way to school very quietly, just looking out the windows on both sides and watching me adjust the air, etc.
OK, this our newest "trick". Sydney is signing "more" all the time now. Especially for food :). Please notice that in the lower picture she is asking for more Cheerios while she still has a mouth full of them. Last night at McAlisters, I was holding her while ordering. I guess she figured out that the cashier was the keeper of the food because she kept leaning forward, signing more, and almost whining like "Please, don't you see me!!! I am ready for my food!"
Beautiful azaleas at the Parker's house.

Oh, I love it! I can just see Sydney trying to crawl out of your arms and onto the counter to tell the cashier to get her "more" right now! :) I am trying to teach Jackson a sign for more, but he just flaps his arms up and down and whines until the food lands on his tray! Have a good week.

i loved it when my girls signed to me. #3 was a little slower in her speech thanks to constant ear infections, but she signed more than the other 2...comunication is the best...so much better than whining! (although there is plenty of that to go around too!)

I can't wait to ride with more leg room!!!! Sydney is precious when she signs and I think she knows now that when she asks me for "more" she almost always gets it!

I LOVE the last picture in front of the azaleas!!! Sydney is getting so big! It's always fun to watch her grow through all the pictures!
