These are late going up, but I just love love love these photos from the girls' sibling photo shoot. I had some prints made, now I just have to get them framed!

10 Months!
At 10 months, this little babe has two teeth on the bottom and 4 wild teeth up top. She has mastered waving and says a number of things including: Uh-oh, hi, mama, dada and sometimes dog. I feel like Shelby talked a lot more at this phase, but then again, it is NEVER quite it seems. I have transitioned her to the bathtub and this little gal wants to eat everything in her path. She is very disinterested in baby food, but will eat pretty much any form of table food that we can find. We love you "Chumba Wumba" - you're on your way to being ONE!

First Toofers!
Sienna's first two teeth popped up right around the 7 month mark. She would make the funniest faces as she touched her new teeth to her upper gums. I can see all four of her top teeth waiting in the wings, but I remember those taking a while to come in for my Shelby Pie. I love her grin (and double chin!), any way that I can get it!

Labor Day Weekend in Utah!
We recently did something that our family almost never does....took advantage of a holiday weekend and got of of town! It was so wonderful and the mountain air was a much-needed break from the desert heat. We spent two nights up in Cedar City Utah and had a blast. Up on the mountain is was rather chilly, but down in town, it was great. Sienna is not a huge fan of her car seat, so that added to the fun of the 2.5 hour drive, but it was worth it!

Goodbye and Hello!
Shelby is officially in a pre-K program in the Dolphin Room! Our project? Learning to read! She has all the pieces, we're just trying to figure out how to put them together. She can sound out words to spell them, but stringing sounds together to form a word seems to be more challenging. In any event, here's to a great school year!
Last Day in the Pelican Room:
First Day in the Dolphin Room:
*she is ALL arms and legs these days! Growing like a weed.....a cute weed though.....the kind you want to cuddle with.

Adios Helmet!
We made it! No more helmet! It first went on, on May 12 and it came off for good on August 11. That first night that I could rock Sienna and snuggle her fluffy head, rather than a plastic helmet, brought tears to my eyes. All the stares, plastic snuggles and sweat aside, it was SO WORTH IT. She started with a head that was 18 mm from "perfect" and ended with one that is just 1 mm away. I documented some of her progress, but the photos do not do it justice - the helmet was a miracle. An expensive one, but a miracle nonetheless. My younger brother told me that she "looked like a Mayan" - I assure you that is no longer a fair comparison!
