Too Cute Not to Share

Siena has been in school for 3 weeks and we are doing our best to adjust to a new school schedule, a new sleep schedule and days without her around the house.  She seems to like school overall; the highlights of her day are carpooling with her friend Lainey, eating lunch and going to recess.  Carson has stepped up and been a fantastic brother to his sister, Allegra, since it's just the two of them now.  Siena and Carson have enjoyed a lot of play time outdoors after school that has been priceless.

Our little man celebrated three years with us and he is such a blessing to our family.  On many occasions, we have heard just how polite he is but the flip side of that is he always has a question for us. He knew it was his birthday and was eager to sing "Happy Birthday" to himself and other people as well.  We celebrated his big day with a dream to the "Choo-Choo" house (aka The Discovery Center which houses a model train) with his best buddy, Clark, and cheese pizza for lunch.  These two are a hoot together!

 We have the best friends who threw Carson a small get together with his friends in the evening, complete with Thomas the Train cupcakes.  Since he got lawn tools for his birthday, he spent Labor Day weekend putting them to good use. 

Our friends know Kurt incredibly well and how he has recently shared THE FORCE with Siena and Carson and they LOVE IT!!!!  As a result, Star Wars gifts are a popular item at our house for all.  Yes, those are bubble containers (that are no longer full).

Allegra may not have celebrated a birthday but she is doing some big things like bouncing in the jumper and riding on Milo. She enjoys being on her tummy now and will spend time playing with the kids around her.  Her smile is contagious and she is the happiest baby you could ever ask for.
Our cup truly runneth over!
