March 2009

Grandma Stoops visited us for 10 days.  We went to Zuma Beach and had fun playing at the park and blowing bubbles! I also went to my first concert with Michelle and Kendyl to see Charlotte Diamond who sings my favorite song "Slippery Fish"! My hair is long enough now so that mommy can put my hair in 2 ponytails.  I ask her every morning for either one or two ponytails so my hair isn't in my eyes.  I am becoming such a big girl!!!

Kauai Trip in February

We decided to take a trip to Hawaii and stayed at the Outrigger Kiahuna Plantation Resort in Poipu on Kauai.  This will be our last family vacation until baby girl #2 due May 25!  Although the weather wasn't as warm as we had anticipated, it was a fantastic vacation without much rain.  We spent a lot of time playing on the beach, watched Daddy surf and hiked on the north side of the island.  Sienna had a blast playing in the water especially at "Baby Beach" which consisted of calm ocean water about a foot and a half deep.  We really wished we had stayed a couple of day longer but plan on going back in the future:)

January 2009

This was a busy and exciting month for Sienna, being 21 months old and talking up a storm.  It was very exciting for Sienna to witness history with Barack Obama becoming our new president.  She had a fun playdate with Kendyl feeding the crazy ducks at the park.  We also went to Arizona to stay with the Rypma's and to meet Grandma Stoops and Ron since they were visiting for the golf tournament.  Sienna had a blast playing with Dane and watching Sloane since she loves real and play babies!  

I love swinging at the park
