Before I started to write this post, I re-watched the videos from our last post and am amazed with how much Sierra has changed even in the last 2 months! She has more hair!! We may even be approaching a hair cut here soon- not that it's in her eyes or anything, but more to tame this mullet she seems to be developing. She walks and runs even faster than before- and climbs... on everything! Sierra is still a delightful, energetic little girl- with an increasingly independent attitude. Her two favorite words (by a large margin) are "NO!" and "MINE!" (All caps and exclamation points are actually required- those two words are always shouted forcefully.) Other favorites are Mama, Papa, up, please, more, book, eat, Elmo, Izzy, MOE! (she also shouts this one, frequently in poor Moe's face)... remember when we thought she'd never talk? I'm sure Moe does.... (world's most patient dog, really, it's incredible).
She's learned how to use a spoon, comb her hair, brush her teeth, walk in heels, and a few other things too...
Riding the hay-cow at her school's rodeo day.
Mama finally got brave enough to try finger paints at home. I've never appreciated her teachers enough...
She discovered her shadow on the way out of school one day. :) It took us at least 10 minutes to walk to the car.
Hey, hey- would you look at my sweeeeeeet ladybug ride?
The energy never ends! HI MAMA!!
We've been sick ALOT this spring. I don't think we've all been healthy for more than 2 weeks in a row since January. Sierra has developed an interesting method for hiding from nurse Maud. No glasses and Sierra's screaming. Put on Mama's glasses and everything's peachy.
Easter! Time for food, family, and fun! Sierra had SO.MUCH.FUN all weekend. She was beyond exhausted every evening, but was never ready to stop. We enjoyed SO much getting to watch her play with all of her cousins! (No first cousins yet, but lots of wonderful second cousins to enjoy Beeville with!)
Sidewalk chalks with Abby, whose name she learned to say that weekend, much to her delight (both of them).
Rockstar eater. This kid loved her fried oysters!
Probably the highlight of the weekend. Live music courtesy of cousin Scott and his bandmate (from Jasper's Cast) in the garage. Sierra and Arden danced until they fell over- literally.
There's plenty more we've done in the last couple months- I'll try to share part 2 of this post soon!
:)
