Something old, Something new

With my shower being less than a week away, things feel like they're getting down to the wire. A constant line of thought has been "Oh, I've got such-and-such number of weeks left...OMG WAIT STOP! I ONLY HAVE SUCH-AND-SUCH WEEKS LEFT! EEK!" In a weird way, this baby still seems surreal to me. I literally cannot imagine how life is going to be after I have her, and its not for lack of trying. Granted, I have a lot going on in my life right now, and I've wrapped myself up in baby-related things from time to time, but it still seems like its happening to someone else.

Sydney has started VPK, and is requiring additional work (cue canned gasp track) to keep her motivated. Wonder of wonders, she takes after her dear old mum in that "on-level" tasks seem to be beneath her. I have the sinking feeling that the preschool workbook I bought for her before the schoolyear started will very soon need to be replaced with a kindergarten workbook, and possibly 1st grade before the year is up. *sigh* At least she has a fashionable new wardrobe to conquer her academics in!

And, in typical Sydney fashion, we have some...er....more questionable ensembles...

If it makes her happy, right?
