Four months

Sienna turns 4 months old tomorrow... where does the time go? We've been having lots of fun with her lately.... so much fun that she has started to laugh! Scott does this silly voice and face (love that it takes us acting like idiots to make her laugh), and she just cracks up. Enjoy the video that captures the moment and her sweet little laugh.

Scott also has found a new way to carry our little one around the house... on his shoulders! Sienna seems to enjoy the view from way up high.


On December 30th, we went to Aliyah's first birthday party. Gretchen (Aliyah's mom) and I think that Sienna and Aliyah are going to be best buds one day because they are so similar. Big brother Caden wanted to hold Sienna. It was so darn cute! The last time Caden held Sienna was in the hospital, and she sure looks a lot bigger now!


I remembered to take Sienna's picture today on her chair, like I used to do every week. She's about 17 weeks and 2 days in this picture.... she looks HUGE next to these stuffed animals now.

As Sienna turns 4 months, I thought I'd do another "I love" list. She has acquired a few new favorite things in the past month.
Thumb. In the past few weeks, Sienna has traded her paci for her thumb. She still uses the paci to wind down initially for bed and naps, but it's her right thumb she sucks to go to sleep. It's so dang cute. We lay her down in bed, she smiles at us, we walk out of the room, and she starts sucking her thumb and is asleep in minutes. Precious.
Legs. Sienna has always LOVED to stand up, and that continues into month four. If Sienna is ever wiggly or a bit grouchy, you can just stand her up and she is totally content. In fact, she can pretty much support her entire body weight while standing up if you just help her balance slightly. She's a strong one.
Milk. Sienna continues to pack on the pounds, and she has the cutest cheeks as a result.
Laughing. As the previous video attests, she loves to smile and laugh.
Books. Since Sienna has started to be able to sit up really well lately, we've started reading books. She loves books with bright colors and textures she can touch.
Laying on her back. Sienna loves laying on her back to sleep and play. She protests tummy time. Roll her on her back, and she's loving life.
Stroller toys and rings. Since learning she has hands she can use to grab things, she loves her stroller toys and rattles. She has a caterpillar rattle that hangs on her car seat, and she loves playing with it while in the car.

Sienna is adorable laughing in that sound clip with her daddy! I have played it multiple times. It is great when I can't hear it for real in person. She so loves laying on her back and being talked and played with AND watching the ceiling fans! I LOVE this little stinkweed:)
