Its the end of summer and what do I have to show for it? School starts in 4 days for my nieces and nephews and I am going to have to fend for myself once again....no more friends for my babies to play with. We did have a great summer though. Cameron's summer hours were excellent and we took full advantage of him getting off around 4 everyday. We were able to take a few short vacations, and see lots of family. To top it off, we are losing weight! Most of you know that we Mounts are doing a family wide weight loss challenge. Apparently we are "all overweight". So yes there are prizes and money involved, and it has been three weeks and I have lost 5 lbs, and Cameron 10! WOOHOO!! I can't wait to be back to my pre-Sydney/Dylan weight. 9 more lbs to go! We have had to give up desserts...yes that means ice cream for me. It has been tough, but not too bad. We also finally started up our volleyball nights again...I am just lucky the boys let me play! I love getting back into shape...its hard, but totally worth it! Anneli...don't think i haven't been running my street...you would be proud! :)
Anyway, that is it for us...here are a few recent pics of the babes. They are growing so fast. Sydney has finally found something to soothe her and that is her left index finger. I didn't think I would be so excited about that, but i am jsut glad she doesn't cry all the time. Its been great. She also is sleeping through the night 10 hours (it took Dylan 18 months to do that), and she is cuter than ever...who does she look like?
Dylan is talking like crazy. He says anything and everything. Last week he started saying "go away you freaking bugs". I wonder where he got that? :) I just keep forgetting how much I influence everything, and how he can repeat anything i say. Its kinda scary don't you think? He really loves his little sister and has even tried holding her when I wasn't looking. OOPS! Dylan is also learning to use the potty. He has been doing great. He gets two gummies every time he goes and it seems to be working well. I can't believe how fast he is growing up.

I totally see both you and Cameron in Sydney. I can't believe how dark her hair and skin are though! She's so adorable...like a porcelain doll! I am getting so antsy to see what our little guy is going to look like. Please pray that I don't go past my due date! hahaha
You are so funny, I wish I could lose my baby weight, but that would consist of two things I hate, exercising and dieting,YUCK!!!!!!!! O.K. Sydney's hair is out of control, she reminds me of Riley. Too cute! love you guys
The kids are getting so big and so cute. I'm jealous of those hills, they are the only ones that I can stand to do. Maybe next time I will do more than one lap, not very likely.
