The Monkey Chronicles
The life and times of me, Sydney Lauren Aurora. Edited by my mom to help keep our far flung family up to date on my activities. Mommy originally planned on it being a "Daily dose of Syd" but she is WAY too lazy for that!

Little head

I actually always have had a very small head... I was in about the 10th percentile for head size ever since I was born. Mommy was scared I'd wind up a pinhead.
At my last doctors appointment we discovered my head has LEAPED ahead into the 50th percentile. Not HUGE, but it will certainly keep me from pinheaded-ness.
Check out the big brain on Syd!

My NEW shoes!

Apparently, along with my new skill of walking comes a few small responsibilities...

So today we headed out to the mall and bought my first pair of big girl shoes (courtesy of Nana and Nano - thanks guys!!) Aren't they pretty??? Supportive and yet fashionable. I heart them!

Sydney and the attack of the belly eating monster!!!
Ok, here I am WALKING!!! Then I get attacked by the belly-eating monster.
Silly mommy can't figure out how to rotate the video, so please put your left ear on your left shoulder before you press play!
Sometimes you need to hit play 2 times before it works!

Baby you can drive my car!

My Nana Anna and Pop Pop got me this awesome car ride-on toy for christmas. When Daddy first put me in it I was a little bit too small

But now I can finally use it like the super cool ride-on car that it is! I cruise ALL over the house and trust me, those dogs and cats better watch the heck out. I got me a mean case of road rage!! (Kind of like mommy... we drive 20 minutes each way to daycare every day, so I know what I'm talking about!)
Thanks again Nana and Pop Pop for another AWESOME toy!!

My feet, my feet, my magical feet!

My foot in August 2005.... and my feet in August 2006. It's hard to gauge the size difference just from these pics but Daddy says it is considerable!
The importance of the feet will be realized when I tell you that I took my first steps today! 2 1/2 of them to be exact!!
(I could maybe have done more but mommy's screaming scared the heck out of me!)
Anyway, they don't have any pics of me doing my new trick yet, so Mommy thought the feet pics would do nicely!

Takin' the kids for a walk

I went to visit my cousin Gracie this weekend and had the BEST time with her baby carriage and shopping cart. I am REALLY close to walking as you will see when mommy posts some more videos tomorrow night!
In the meantime... here's some shots of me taking the kids for a walk!



Ummm.... what's up with my mom's HAIR?
