I'm always in awe of moms who can fluidly generalize their kids habits ('she takes one nap a day', 'he sleep 8 hours straight!,' 'she's a daddy's girl', 'he loves broccoli', etc.) because every time I think I understand our daughter, she changes her mind! Before I can even record my observations, mozzarella cheese is out('cheddar is better now'), new teeth (#10 and 11!) ruin the one (sigh) 8-hour night thus far, weaning is out the window for a week because I came down with something very similar to H1N1 and wanted to pass along antibodies, etc. That being said, here's what we know about Siena, right now, right this minute, until she wakes up in a few hours and does something new:
She weights 25 lbs (72nd percentile).
She is 2'10" (97th percentile).
Her head is 18.5" in circumference (72nd percentile).
She likes...*
Peek-a-boo.
To give kisses. To babies, to daddy, sometimes to mommy, and ALWAYS to her best friend "Roooob." Below, brand new baby Colton's nap is interrupted with a big ol' Siena smooch.
To push Aunt Katie in her wheelchair. Siena LOVES when the Nicholsons come to visit!
To pick her nose.
To feed herself. Mom, please take your hands off my spoon, or yes, I will have a tantrum. (And Dad, you'd better get used to it - I'm messy!)
Dogs. (She climbed in there and closed the door all on her own, I promise!)
To exhibit sass. Nothing says 'sass' like turquoise spandex and brown, fuzzy-tasseled boots. Siena has a STRONG will.
To color with a "pEH-nuh." Sometimes on her easel, sometimes on her shirt, and sometimes...
"Bah-bos."We are slowly weaning Siena in hopes of baby number 2, but she really likes her babos. :) If she can't get them from mommy, she tries elsewhere. (Sorry, Kindall.)
To take baths. Usually they are a lot of fun. Below, however, Siena is giving mommy a very concerned look. Why? Ruby comes to check it out as Siena is high-tailing it out of the tub. Why? Check out the second picture...
And on that note, we'll say goodnight!
*Siena likes lots of things. Like her cousins, aunts, uncles, grammy, poppy, grandma, grandpa, broccoli, belly-buttons, books, dancing, and so on, but this list is just the stuff I have recent pictures of, so take no offense, poor, neglected, uncaptured belly buttons...
