I have no words...except PLEASE COME OUT SOON, KIDS!

Butterflies

Sydney and I took our first trip to see the butterfly exhibit at Frederick Meijer Gardens this weekend. The second we walked into the exhibit and she realized there were butterflies flying all around her, she was hooked. There was a lot of pointing, staring, crouching, marveling, and even some discussion of how the caterpillar pods turn into butterflies (thanks to The Very Hungry Caterpillar book by Eric Carle). I especially loved seeing the difference in Sydney's reactions between this year and last year....I'm sure we will be taking many more trips to the Gardens this spring and summer!

The Latest on Sydney

It seems that we have been subconsciously spoiling Sydney lately in anticipation of her getting the short end of the stick once the twins make their big debut....well, hopefully not, but she has been on the good end of some big purchases around here lately.

Here Sydney is in her new playhouse (aka "play-doh house," as she has been calling it) and loving every minute so far. Hopefully it will keep her occupied for a while!

Sydney also made the move this week to a "big girl bed," otherwise known as a twin mattress on the floor for the time being. So far, so good, and we are so proud of her! The transition has been almost seamless. Syd's crib has been disassembled and the mattress moved to the twins' room, which is now overflowing with furniture within its four small walls. More photos on that to come!

Sporting some major bedhead after her first nap in the new bed...we're just excited that she has enough hair to even get bedhead!
