Grandma Nelson was here for Christmas this year. She usually comes up and it wouldn't be Christmas without Grandma. Christmas Eve Grandma got Sydney and that was it....she was in heaven. The other great-grand kids were vying for her attention as well. Brooke was so worried about Grandma in the Mountains and where she was and what she was doing. It's always fun having Grandma around!
Mom and I went to Kamas on Sunday on our way home from Fairview to see Sydney. We couldn't believe it when we first saw Susie. She was in pre pregnancy jeans! We took them to lunch at the diner in Oakley and mmmm it was yummy. Cute place with the best homemade potato chips.
Sydney Verl Dugdale decided to make her entrance into this world last night! Susie did great and had a very smooth labor and delivery. All the nurses couldn't believe how well she did. Both Susie and Sydney are doing great. I swear I am not biased but this little girl is perfect! She is so dainty! She weighed 6.1 pounds and was 20.5 inches long. I can't wait to get to the hospital again and hold and smell her. There is nothing better than holding a new baby. When I first went in their room you would have wondered who the baby was as I was 'crying like a baby'!
About a year and and a half ago my coworkers were talking incessntly about these vampire books. They kept at me to start them but continually pointed out that they were written by a BYU graduate which wasn't the best selling point. All I could think was how good can it be? A Mormom writing about vampires? A few weeks later when I couldn't stand it any longer I started reading Twilight so I knew what the heck they were talking about. Boy was I wrong! I started just before Eclipse came out so by the time I got through Twilight and New Moon it was there waiting for me. In the last year I have convinced many people to read them and they too are hooked. When Breaking Dawn came out a few months ago I was just as anxious as Braden was the night the last Harry Potter book came out. The movie comes out on the 21st and everyone pray that Susie isn't in labor....she's my date!
Susie sent me the link to do the quiz that tells you who you are most like from Twilight. She is like Bella and I am Esme. Who are you?
Last night we went to the Grizzlies game I won tickets to earlier in the week. Mom, Dad and I met at Chili's to grab a bite before the game and then Susie and Will met us there. Believe it or not it was a lot of fun. There was a couple good fights and lets face it, what is a hockey game without a good fight? Seeing grown men fight in pink jerseys on pink ice was pretty ironic!
