This past weekend we went back to Friendswood for a friend's wedding. While we were there my Mom had lots of friends over for a Meet & Greet with Sienna. We had the best time visiting with everyone and showing off our little sweetie! Here are some pics:
Here's one of SiSi smiling- it's hard to get the camera when she's doing it!
Mary Ann (one of my Mom's best friends) with SiSi:
Betty (one of my Mom's best friends) with SiSi:
Mrs. Hasselmeier and Grandma Ballard with SiSi (she is smiling at Grandma Ballard- how cute!):
Rachel, my college roomie, with SiSi (Rachel has her third on the way!):
Laura, who is the wife of my law school buddy, Scott. Laura is holding her little girl, Natalie:
My Mom and I with Katie and Alison (one of my best friends from high school and her Mom):
Cindy (who used to be our neighbor and is the Mom of my good friend Julie), Eva (Mom of Susan, my best friend since about age 5!), and Grandma Ring (Susan's Grandma):
Me and Susan (we are holding opposite kids!). She is holding Sienna and I'm holding her little boy Ethan, who is 5 months old:
We just got the pictures back from the photographer that we had taken at our house when SiSi was less than one week old! Here are a few of our favorites!
Sienna is on the boob, so I am blogging for Kazzye. Our little bundle of joy has hit her first milestone - one month old! She has been so much fun to watch and care for over the last several weeks. I think we learn something new about her everyday, and it's been such a challenging, yet rewarding experience! We took this photo of her yesterday in one of our chairs! Thanks to Aunt Cara for the neat birthday hat! We look forward to taking a photo in the same spot each month so we can look back and discover her many changes.
I'm also including a short video of Sienna hanging out with Stella on the floor. Stella has been such a great dog and cannot wait for Sienna to get a little older so they can play together.
Sienna has had quite a few visitors over the last couple of weeks...here are a few pics of her with some of our favorite people (sorry Jess- we forgot to get one when you were here!)!
With Kurt, Chris and Chris' baby Caris On New Years with her new girlfriends- Heath & Staci's baby Hannah, Chris & Robin's baby Caris, and Kyle & Meredith's baby Reese! With her Great-Grandmother Clary With her Grandpa and Grandma Wilson With her "Auntie" Darri!
We wanted to share a few of the cute pics we've gotten of Sienna the last couple of weeks! She is growing like a weed and is in the 97th percentile for height and the 75th for weight- taking after her Daddy I imagine! She has smiled at us a couple of times now, so hopefully we will be able to capture that on film sometime soon!
We met our freshman year at Texas A&M back in 1997 and got married 7 1/2 years later in Austin, Texas. After living in and loving Austin for several years we embarked on a new adventure when Kurt took a job with Raytheon that requires us to live in 3 different places for 8 months each! We were in Boston, MA first, then Santa Barbara, CA and now we're back in Dallas, TX! We are very excited to be back in the Lone Star State and closer to friends and family- and good TexMex! We just had a baby girl named Sienna Laine on December 12, 2008!
