Siena reached 9 months on the 14th of JUNE and I have yet to update on her progress because life has been just that - busy. I weighed the blonde babe at Mother and Baby Source a few days after her monthiversary and she was right at 21 lbs. She has cut two teeth and has added a few tricks to her repertoire. Shiloh pointed out that at this point, Trouble had more skills, but we hope that Siena will pass up the dear old family dog (RIP) soon. :)
She is following in her older cousin's footsteps with the addition of "crazy head."
And recently she added "stretch."
Pulling up on things.
Toe Sucking.
She still can't crawl, but is getting closer with a funny combo of wiggling, planking, and rolling.
We've also spend a lot of time at the pool lately, and Siena stuns all the crowd when she enters with her cute bikini a-la-Bethany.
We've been to the Farmer's Market in Central Park the last few Wednesday evenings with friends.
We celebrated my birthday on the 14th (26 - yikes!) and our anniversary on the 19th (5 years - yay!).
Celebrations included pedicures in Menlo Park, softball with the Brueckners, Starbucks, swimming, CPK and a Giants game with the Foresters (where we got to meet Will "the Thrill" Clark).
The Warnes have a beautiful apricot tree in the backyard of their new house, but don't really like apricots. I gleaned way too many fruits and made jam with Shiloh's dad.
Shiloh helped cut down monster oleander bushes from the future Armstrong yard on Seine Ave.
I am possibly* training for a half marathon in October. One night I came back from a run to a baby who had woken up and was missing me and instantly turned uber-cuddly.
Gracie and Matt came home briefly to drop off their cars before heading to Canada to start the Great Divide Mountain Bike Trail (CAN - MEX) on UNICYCLES. check out divideby1.com
And that's it for now. Bed time!

Aw, I LOVE the uber-cuddly picture! And I'm so impressed that you made jam. I will have to learn the secrets from you someday.
I love it! Cute pictures.
The toe-sucking had me laughing out loud! I thought Sam was interjecting the sucking sounds for effect until I heard the sucking as Sam was talking!! Ha ha... GREAT crazy-head pix. She's just so cute.
Crazyhead is enhanced greatly by nudity.
Siena does not suck on her toes. She slurps them.
And that is the cutest cheerio-eating giraffe I have ever, ever seen.
Which half marathon is it?? May Arris & I will join you--we've been searching for a "goal" run. Also Caleb's been working on his crazy head moves since he saw Siena and her crazy head and all the attention she got from it!
You should do the San Jose 1/2 marathon! You may convince me to train for it again if you do. :)
I can't believe she's 9 months already!! She is so flippin' cute Samantha, I can not stand it! I wanna see her again (in person) someday!!
Love the videos of Siena. I just want to pinch and kiss her cheeks!! Keep posting those pics and stories of your little cutie. Oh, and yes, Patty and I would love to join you for the 1/2 marathon. E-mail the info about it!
