"It's Just Another Day...

.... with you and me in paradise." That Phil Collins song has been playing over and over in my head as I sit down to write this post. While we do have trying moments with Sienna like any parent, we have really been loving this phase with Sienna. Here are a few moments of paradise we've been sharing together lately...

Sienna's first popsicle made from grape, sugar free Kool-Aid

Had to move outside b/c the popsicle was dripping everywhere. She was making sure Maddie did not get a lick!

Cheers! (Pardon the white legs... those are brutal.)

Pops came over for a visit one evening. Sienna ran up to him, turned to Scott and I and said, "bye mommy, bye daddy." When Pops said he was here to play, she about had a major meltdown. So, Pops put her in the car & took her to Hy-Vee to get a cookie. You'd think she was going to Disney World because of her excitement!

Sitting on the step with Pops after their trip to Hy-Vee. Happy, happy!

Speaking of paradise, Scott hiked the Grand Canyon with a few of his buddies last weekend. The pictures and stories are incredible!

Sienna and I had a make-up session today. I put a few of my old cosmetics in a bag for her that we now call "Sienna's make-up bag". Her favorite cosmetics thus far are lip gloss (mint flavored, of course) and powder. Go for the basics, girl! Ha, ha. She LOVES putting on 'meek-up".

Pouty lips

So excited!

We had an exciting moment at our house last night. Right before bed, Sienna told us, "poo-poo potty". She has never specifically asked to go pee/poo on the potty, but we took her downstairs to her potty chair since this seemed different. She started tugging at her pajamas, so we took them off & she sat on her potty. After about 2 tries, she peed about a teaspoon in the potty! Woo hoo!! We are not starting potty training, but it looks like she is getting more interested. Go, Sienna!
