22 months

Tons of new vocabulary (dark, park, pool, MINE, names of classmates and teachers, numbers one and two.)
Sienna is a bit aggressive now, she definitely enjoys using the word mine. We need to work on the hitting and pushing. We have to keep an eye on her with our cat, but she is getting better especially now that I showed her how to feed Zacky treats.

Sienna is very independent and has to do everything herself these days, I hope these toddler tantrums are not a sign of what to expect when she turns 2.

Tonight's 22month picture came past her usual bedtime and she was very cranky. I couldn't pry away the Binky... She was very curious now about how the camera worked especially the video recording, so I showed her. I think she got the concept of how it works because she had a fit again when I tried to resume the picture taking.

Here is the best from the group. Sienna and her monkeys. Once there was one, now she has two.
Her uncle gave her the first one for Christmas, but then she saw a bunch of them on display the last time we went shopping and had to grab them all . Thomas thought how nice it would be to have a backup favorite toy.

Parks and Pools

Sienna was invited to her friend from school's 2nd birthday party last weekend. It was the first time she played in a splash pool . Today we went to a Labor day party where Sienna got a chance to splash in a big pool. All she talks about now is pool pool pool. At least it's something different than obsessing about the park.
I caught her once having a dream about the park. She fell asleep in the carseat, and woke up all startled when I tried getting her out. Her awakening first words were, "park!

Also, Sienna said her first full sentence about 2 weeks ago.
Holding a bennie baby cat that looks like our cat Zacky, she said, " My baby cat".


Here are pics from Alexandre's birthday party.
