GOOP!

Sienna was home sick today. To cheer her up we made some stuff called Goop, I heard about from her pre-school teacher. It's awesome for toddlers. Cheap, easy to make, non-toxic, and messy! :)
I had to share the reciepe:

It's basically corstarch and water!

Happy Easter!

Even though it rained this Easter Sunday, Sienna enjoyed her indoor egghunt in the living room.
Thank you Lola & Lolo, and Grandma for the nice Easter baskets filled with goodies.

28 months - " I can do it."

In the last few months Sienna has been talking up a storm. I just find myself having more and more conversations with her. This last week, as she turned 28 months, I really noticed the difference.

" I can do it, Mommy." or " What is this?", " Slow down, Mommy. ", "What is Zacky doing?", "Happy Friday!", "Please Mommy, I said please." , and the longest string of words today " What is this? I can't reach it. It's up high."

My little toddler is turning more and more into a kid each day.

More photos coming soon!

More pictures of Sienna

I'm taking a photography class through work, so there will be a lot more pictures in the upcoming weeks :) I'm getting a hang of my SLR camera now. These are undoctored raw camera shots. (Click on image for hi-res)

We got a break from all the rain last Sunday. Finally! Sienna's been singing the "Rain rain, go away" song.

Sienna doesn't care for swings

loves her tricycle

27 month old Sienna

In the past month Sienna's vocabulary has grown. It started with her transition to the next classroom up at Daycare. She's so much grown up. Sienna proudly tells people she is going to be a big sister. I'm feeling and looking more like I'm in my 3rd trimester now, rather than my 2nd.

Last week Sienna was singing Happy Birthday. I asked her who's birthday was it? She remember Auntie Mel's birthday was next. Tomorrow is Auntie Mel's birthday. Happy Birthday Melinda!
