Sweet music!

Cow

Connie, our daycare lady, has a little white lie.....she has been telling the kids that she has a cow in her garage. Why? Because that is where they have a extra refrigerator and the milk she has is in a bag. The bag has a picture of a cow on it.

Sydney: Mommy, did you know that Connie has a cow in her garage?
Me: Really? That is pretty cool! Is that where she gets the milk?
Sydney: Yes! And when the milk is done the cow puts his picture on the bag!
Me: Wow! That is cool! Have you seen the cow?
Sydney: Nope
Me: Do you ever hear the cow mooing?
Sydney: Nope

I love her innocence!

"yeah, Ryan's my boyfriend"

Me: What did you do at daycare today?
Sydney: Played with Jack - we went up the hill and rolled back down (ha, I thought was funny!)
Me: How about Ryan, was he there today?
Sydney: Oh yes, I played with him too.
Me: Ryan seems like a really nice boy (Jack is nice too).
Sydney: Yeah, Ryan is my boyfriend.
Me: Oh, he is? (note...we tease her about this from time to time, because they play house together with the other kids)
Jim: Does he have a good job.
Sydney: Yes!
Me: Where does he work?
Sydney: He works in South America.

Ha, this girl cracks me up! They must have just learned about S. America, because I have no idea where that came from. I need to write down all these stories, because she really does have some good ones. And she has the best sense of humor (both of our daycare's have told us this too).

A trip to the park...

On Saturday, while daddy was away shooting birds, Sydney and me were enjoying some time at the park....

This picture was taken on Sunday night, when we were sitting out back enjoying a snack and watching the bats fly around in the neighbors yard....not the best picture, but the time together was great. We originally went outside to play on the swingset...but instead we sat on the bench, had a snack, chatted and watched the bats....before we knew it, it was dark and time to go in. She is such a hoot...I love this little girl (to the moon and back)! ;)

"It Happens"

Sydney loves music! It is no mistake that she really likes country music...because that is all that we listen to. On the way to daycare this morning with daddy, "It Happens" by Sugarland came on and she yells "that's mommy's favorite song!" (she does it with so much enthusiasm too). Jim didn't know if this was true, so he didn't question her. After he dropped off he called to confirm....and sure enough, she was right. "It Happens" is one of my favorite songs, at this time. When it has come on the radio when we are in the car together, she has started singing some of the words with me. I can't carry a tune for anything...but she can!

When a song comes on the radio that she recognizes, she will make a point to say "mommy / daddy that song is on my radio at home or on the radio in daddy's truck". She doesn't quite grasped the concept of the radio....but we love that she loves listening to it...and she is really listening.

It also has to be said, that she sleeps with the radio on and will tell you that the radio helps her go to sleep.

**thankfully she doesn't really know what the real meaning behind "It Happens". haha! **

Funny Story!

Okay, since I'm horrible at uploading new pictures (mainly because our computer is old and slow and I have little, to no patience for it anymore)...I will just share funny stories.

Sydney has done this twice, but the most recent was last week when we didn't have daycare and my mom was watching her on Monday. They were at the park and she wanted to be lifted up to the monkey bars, so she asked for Grandma's help. Grandma said she was to short and she would have to wait for someone taller (thinking Sydney would just go play on something else)....but instead she heads off towards the playgroud and yells "God!, God!, God!" (yes, really...God...and really loud! :)) Grandma asks her why she is yelling for God, Sydney said "because she needs someone tall to help her on the monkey bars". Grandma replied with "you might be waiting awhile". She yelled for God a few more times and then moved on to play on something else when she realized no one was coming to help her on the monkey bars.

The one other time she has done this is when she was in the truck with Jim. Out of no where she starts yelling for God. Jim asked her why she was yelling for God. Because she wanted to tell Him that she had got a new swingset (she had been praying for one for a LONG time). She wanted to be sure He knew, she had finally got it.

I love that she knows that God there is to help (we can thank daycare for this, since we aren't the best at going to church on a regular basis)....and I love the innocence she has and isn't afraid to yell for Him. :)

I'm sure I will think of more funny stories...as I do I will be sure to post them on here (to share with all of you and really for me to remember them)!

**Someday we will get a new computer and I will post new pictures....someday!**

Where have the Jagow's been?

Wow...I haven't posted since Feb.? Yikes! Life has been busy, busy, busy! If the weather is rainy this weekend, I'll see about uploading some pictures...I only have a few! haha! In the meantime, here is a few that I took with my phone.
