Christmas time

Here are some pictures from the last few weeks! We've had a busy December, but it's been full of laughter, friends, family, and good times. Also, Sienna's become very active lately. She can now lift her head and shoulders off of the ground, she giggles and laughs a lot, and loves playing with her toys. She grabs them and puts them in her mouth. We think she is teething, because she has started drooling like crazy and everything she touches, she wants in her mouth. We have a doctor appointment in a little over a week and we'll see what he says. She's still so sweet and we continue to dance, sing, and act crazy non-stop to see her huge smile and hear those precious giggles.

Here is Sienna lately:

Here are some pictures from this previous month. We are so looking forward to the holidays and the beginning of new traditions, now that Sienna is in our lives. Just having her in our family makes the holidays more exciting and I know it's going to get even better. Hope all is going well during this fun, busy season.

Our baby girl is 3 months old now! Crazy how time flies by. It's amazing to look at her "monthly picture" and notice how she's grown since last month and even how much better she holds up her head. Last month is was bobbling all over the place and this time she sat up against the chair with a lot more stability!! I'm so proud :).

Every time I am feeding or holding Sienna, Colby comes and lays down right next to us...often on my lap! He loves to get in on the action and likes to be wherever Sienna is. It's pretty sweet.

Garth decided to try on the Bjorn...with our dog, not our baby. Although Colby didn't care for it, Sienna loves it!

Great-Grandma and Sienna on Thanksgiving Day

Sienna's first time wearing a skirt and tights...so darn adorable. I made her the Turkey onesie, it was my first sewing project. I love how it turned out and I think she looked just adorable. However, as soon as we showed up to our second destination that day, with Garth's family, she had a massive blowout-up to her shoulders! So we had to change her clothes. At least we got a couple pictures of her looking cute!

Bundled up for a walk after all of that yummy Thanksgiving food

This month, we also had my 10 year reunion. It was a great time to visit with old friends and catch up. It was way better than I thought it was going to be, we had a great time!!

Putting up our Christmas tree. We had hot cocoa, watched National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation, and decorated the tree. It was a perfect night with our little family.

Much love during this Christmas Season!
