Welcome Home Sydney

On 7/21, we were very excited for Sydney to come home after being away for a total of 4 weeks. Still on east coast time, both she and Mema were up early on Sunday morning. So we went to the Park Bench Cafe for breakfast. It is a neat little place that is outside at the park. Dogs are allowed and the menu actually has a doggie section to order from. We enjoyed a nice breakfast and then went to feed the ducks.

Sydney had a great time visiting on the east coast but I think she is glad to be back at her home. We have been going full steam since she got home....Pool on Sunday, American Idol tour concert on Monday. I'll try to get more pictures to post for this weekend.
Have a good week!

Food at last

Carly is now enjoying some solid food in addition to the rice cereal......if you can call puréed fruit and carrots solid food. So far she eats it up. I am thinking she is finally glad to get something besides milk! She is also very active. She is constantly wanting to stand and wanting to grab things. We can no longer hold her while eating dinner because her hands immediately go to the plate. Everyday brings new and exciting discoveries.

Sydney is on her last week of her 4 week trip to the south. We are very anxious for her to come home. Once she gets home she has a few camps to attend. She is going to try out tennis and also attend a soccer camp for the 2nd year. Soccer is always a big, big thing in Southern Ca. Now that David Beckham is moving to CA to play for the Galaxy, soccer is getting major soundbites. Have you seen all the reports of the minute by minute move of David and Posh Beckham to their new LA mansion? Beckham will probably make over 200M from salary and endorsements. We hope Sydney enjoys soccer camp.

East Coast Visit

Carly, Sydney and I went to North Carolina and Georgia once school was out. We were visting family from 6/22 to 7/01. We had a great time with my family in NC and Tony's family in GA. Carly and I had to return on the 1st because it was back to work for me today - 7/02! Sydney is staying a few extra weeks. This will be the 3rd year she has spent a few weeks in NC and GA during the summer. Even though it is hard for us for her to be gone for such a long time, she and the family enjoy the time together.



I got a lot of great pictures - hope you enjoy!!
