Why People Need the Internet

So, I've decided that the internet should be a free service for poor people, like part of Welfare or sompin'. My reasoning is this:
1. If poor people had the internet, they wouldn't have to call every freakin' place they needed help from instead of doing stuff online. The average poor person is put on hold for at least 240 hours of their life. That's 240 hours that could be spent hunting down dead squirrels to cook for dinner.
2. Poor people get bored a lot because they also don't own a second car to get out of the house.
3. Poor people need blogs to stay connected to others and feel like they have friends (or at least order free samples from Walmart so they get mail).
So all I'm saying is if this sounds good, let me know and I'll see what I can do to start a petition or something.

Because I'm visiting my parents and they have the internet, I think I shall post again tomorrow. Until then.

So, today Ryan and I found out what gender our little baby #2 is going to be. Here are the ultrasound pictures. Most of them, it's hard to tell what is what, but they're still fun to look at:

Ewww... placenta:

One of the cutest feet I've ever seen:





Now that you've looked at all the pictures, I can tell you we're having a BOY!!!

Sydney at 13 and 14 months

This blog post is dedicated to the several members of my family who keep rebuking me for not sending out enough photos of Sydney. Yesterday, Sydney crawled into this little nookie and we thought it was hilarious! She loves tight spaces for some reason.






Here's our little model. We can't believe how big she's getting:

I think that Sydney looks just like Ryan's baby pictures in this one:

13 MONTHS:


Sydney went to a water park in Tempe with her cousin (2nd, I think?) Emma.


Sydney loves water slides:

Sydney got into Mommy's jewlery. She decided to go topless too:

Welcome, welcome, I'm happy to have you any day:

This was in Heber at Ryan's parent's house. We cleaned out the mop bucket so Sydney could go on a ride. This is what poor people do for fun:

Kindly enough, Sydney let Daddy take a turn too.

Sydney LOVES animals. Especially Frankie (Ryan's family's cat). She chased him around everywhere:

And hugged him...:

And petted him...:

And pretty much wouldn't leave him alone:



These pictures were taken labor day weekend

Sunsplash/What Sydney does around the house for kicks and giggles

Ryan's mom, Gail, and brother, Kevin, came down to visit us last week. A lady at church (Helen Carling) who works at sunsplash (a water park) got us in for free. Swww-eeee-t. Sydney had so much fun. The amazing bathing suit she is wearing was bought for her by her adoring Grandpa Jeffry. Sydney is meant for the water. I was ready to leave before she was. Sheesh.







This was at home before we left for Sunsplash. Sydney was playing with her cow, Bessie.

When we left this slide, Sydney walked back over to it and started going up the stairs. She obviously wasn't done yet.

Sydney was playing with Lexi Carling (Helen's daughter)

Daddy pretty much forced Sydney down this one (no just kidding). Sydney really hoped Grandma Gail would catch her at the bottom.








Syd and Lexi again.

Now on to a few picutures of what Syd does around the house for fun. This is why we don't need TV:

Sydney likes to play with her stuffed friends

And then eat them

Then she finds a good sized shoe box

And stuffs herself in it, hoping no one puts a clearance sticker on her

She also quite enjoys eating peanut butter from the jar (Daddy goes for convenience)

And plays on chairs (while Mommy freaks out thinking she'll fall). Sydney really likes climbing on things.


And that about sums it up.
