No News Is Good News

Here are some fun pictures from the last week, with a video at the end...

Sam and Baby doing what they do best (snuggling):





Siena has some big yawns for such a tiny girl:




Jeremy is training for fatherhood (distant future) while modeling the haircut I gave him:




Siena hanging out in her crib, looking cute in an outfit she hasn't quite grown into:




Jen and Natalie finally got to throw the baby shower they had planned. It was originally going to be on September 20, but Siena crashed the party!



Bronwyn, Carie, and Bethany at the shower:




Happiness:




Cousin Shanon came for a cuddle sesh. Siena liked her a lot, even though Siena was a little self-conscious about being so white. :)




Justin, also training for fatherhood:




At one of Sam's showers, the ladies decorated diapers for Siena. This one was very on-point:




This is a typical shot of Siena lounging in bed in the morning. She is getting quite used to the Cal King(!):




Siena enjoys the quilt Kindall Keefer made for her:










We haven't had much to update lately because Siena does what just about every newborn does, we think: She eats (VERY frequently), she sleeps (especially during the day), and she poops (non-stop).

A few highlights in her almost one month of life:

1) She got to try out her first few cloth diapers because we thought we had run out of newborn-size disposables. (gasp.) The trendy bumGenius diapers looked ridiculously cute on her tiny body, but the leg holes still require legs with a bit more girth. This allowed for escapee excrement and extra loads of laundry. Fortunately, an infrequently-opened drawer provided hidden treasures -- an extra pack of mini diapers! It's going to be a tough transition...

2) Siena has become a real sports fanatic, already attending 3 football games (Davis High vs. Pioneer and two at Woodland Christian) and 3 of Shiloh's city league softball games. We're not sure she yet grasps all the rules of the game since she either eats, sleeps or poops (requires lots of concentration) through most of them, but she'll have plenty of time to observe the games as intramurals start up this coming Sunday. (Feel free to come watch and hold a baby on the sidelines!)

3) Hiccups still plague Siena at least once a day, but we don't mind because they make her look really cute. :)
