Update on our little pumpkin

Almost a month has gone by since my last posting.... perhaps influenced by the subconscious (now conscious) notion that I was committed to this blog for the first year of Sienna's life. We'll see how year 2 plays out.

Anyhow, lately our family has been enjoying the Fall weather and all the festivities that happen around KC this time of year. We took Sienna to the Plaza Art Fair in late September; she loved it. The crowd of people energized Sienna, and she especially enjoyed dancing to the live music. So cute to see a little one year old shake her booty.... as well as she can. Ha! We also took Sienna to the pumpkin patch. She LOVES pumpkins. We tell her, "Sienna, give that pumpkin a kiss." And she walks right up to the pumpkin and plants a big one on it. (She is not so generous with kisses for Scott and I... what gives?!) In the pumpkin patch, Sienna likes to try and pick-up all the pumpkins. It's hilarious to watch her try and pick up the bigger ones. She is determined!

In the past month, Sienna has been working on her animal noises. She can make the animal noises for a lion, monkey, kitty and dog. It's so darn cute! I will have to try and get it on camera.

I'll add some pictures later to this post, so check back. We have some cute ones at the pumpkin patch. I hear her waking up (sleeping in this morning), so we've got to do breakfast and then head out of here!

Finally in the patch.... "I see a pumpkin!"

"Yeah! Found one!"

"Now I will kiss it."
