Big Girl Bed!

This morning Hans converted Siena's crib into a toddler bed! She was pretty excited about it, then a bit apprehensive at nap time, but went down pretty easily. I believe she's asleep in it right now. Go girl!!

Grandma & Pigtails.

Hans's mom came up for the weekend and despite crazy cold and rain, she and Siena had a great time playing. JoJo and Grandpa even came over to make pumpkins.
Notice Siena's new doo - pigtails!!

Level One Grad!

Last week Siena completed Level One of her swim classes with a report card full of check pluses! Today she started Level Two. What a big girl!

Nonstop fun!

I don't know where the time goes... This month we have done lots of visiting to our old favorite haunts: the zoo, Clark's farm and the beach, of course. Siena has somehow been transformed into a little girl full of energy and always a comment about everything. Our baby, and now the toddler are gone! She's a riot and we're having a blast.
She's almost potty trained(!) and has slept in the "big bed" at the trailer and we're planning to soon break down her crib and turn it into a toddler bed.
One new development which is really fun is that she is beginning to discover her imagination. She makes up songs and has whole interactions with her stuffed animals (which she barely paid any attention to before). This morning in the car there was a whole potty training conversation being had between her and her stuffed doggie. The good doggie went poop in Siena's cup holder. Lovely. :)
