Less than 1 week after having 4 new tires put on my car, a new timing belt, new drive belts, and new waterpump, my windshield gets cracked.  Not fun at all.

Cole's learning to read!

Cole is so close to being a reader!  He knows all of this upper and lower case letters and he has been sounding out words like crazy!  So proud of the little (big) guy!

Trying some thing new

As much as I love nap time for Siena, I think it's gotten to the point where the nap is affecting her ability ton fall asleep at night. Sunday she was up until 11pm. This is just insane. So yesterday I only let her sleep for 1 1/2 hours. she was still up until 10:30 and she was whining non stop. So today there was no nap. Man was that a rough day. She and Cole were at each others throats non stop. They were constantly fighting. BUT she fell asleep during story time an by 9pm. This is a first! We will see how she does sleeping through the night tonight.

Siena is 3!

What can I say about Siena at the age of 3. She is a very spunky little girl who adores her older brother to pieces. As long as she wakes up on the right side of the bed she is will find him every morning and give him a hug before doing anything else. She speaks very well and knows her alphabet, numbers, colors (finally), shapes, and animals. She gets a little confused with numbers past 10 but she tries very hard anyways.

Siena loves hello kitty, Rapunzel, monkies, Mickey mouse clubhouse, and will suffer through old spiderman and batman cartoons with Cole. She is 27 pounds and 35 1/2 inches tall. She has very long hair that we still have not cut. She lets me braid her hair more often than I ever expected a toddler to do.

Her favorite food is agoo ( that is what she calls drinkable yogurt ), string cheese, peanuts,

Siena - age 3

Little peanut is 3, although if you use the words "little" or "tiny" or "baby" in reference to her she will let you know exactly what she thinks about that.  "I am NOT little.  I am a big girl!"

Siena loves everything pink.  She wears skirts and dresses, not pants (according to her) because she can spin in them.  She loves hello kitty, Rapunzel,  and Dora the explorer and Mickey Mouse and will suffer through old spiderman and batman cartoons with Cole..  She is obsessed with Dora at the moment and would watch it 24/7 if she could.  She has been in preschool for about 6 weeks now and loves every thing about it.  She is a very spunky little girl who adores her older brother to pieces. As long as she wakes up on the right side of the bed she is will find him every morning and give him a hug before doing anything else. She speaks very well and knows her alphabet, numbers, colors (finally), shapes, and animals. She gets a little confused with numbers past 10 but she tries very hard anyways.

She is still a pretty picky eater  and her favorite meal is scrambled eggs, bacon, and toast.  She loves the danimals drinkable yogurt which she calls Agoo and then regular yogurt  (Ogurt) string cheese, peanuts,.  She still prefers to drink rice milk over regular milk.

Siena wants to be like her big brother and do everything that he does.  She is his little parrot or as we like to call them "Pete and repete"  She still rarely sleeps though the night and wakes up every night between 12-3 from what we think might be nightmares.

She is 28 pounds and 36.5" (3'0.5") tall.  This puts her in the 28th and 24th percentiles.   She has very long hair that we still have not cut. She lets me braid her hair more often than I ever expected a toddler to do.
