Coincidence??

We haven't had a lot of time for house projects lately but Justin is getting fed up with our laundry room so he's starting to redo parts of it. The first step was reversing the washer and dryer setup. When he pulled the washer out, this is what was underneath.



Now what are the odds that the only 3 pieces of dog food on the whole floor end up in a Mickey head?! They even were the perfect sized pieces (2 different flavors of kibble). So weird. I think it's fate that we need to try FL again.

It pays to have a gold card.

I might frequent Starbucks a little too often but being a gold card member has its perks - like occasional free treat coupons! Today I get to enjoy a mini peanut butter cupcake.

They're here!!

A tiny glimmer of hope for summer to come...my seeds!!



It's hard to tell from the pic but I have beans, peas, cucumbers, butternut and acorn squash. Of course my favorite edamame is on back order. Hopefully we get them by the end of the month. Since I haven't had a ton of luck, I decided not to start any seeds inside this year. I am going to buy the tomato, pepper and herb plants. We'll see if that works any better. Itching to get in that garden!

8 Months

Sienna,
Here we are at another month!! Your little personality is really starting to shine through. You are very social and love people. Sometimes you will be a little shy at first and lay your head on mom’s shoulder but a few seconds later you’ll perk up and be full of smiles and squeals, showing off for everyone around. Removing your socks has become a new favorite past time as is screeching very loudly and high pitched. You love love love to be standing or jumping in your jumperoo (see screeching loudly).

This month we’ve played around with your foods a lot. Since you refused purees for quite awhile we’ve done mostly finger foods. You quickly learned how to feed yourself and are now quite proficient at it. Eventually you started eating off a spoon and we’ve added some purees into your diet to allow our meal time to go a little quicker. You fit right into the family and seem to love all foods, although peas are definitely your favorite. I hope this continues as you get older.

Just to show that you aren’t always all smiles and fun… (yes there are other sides to that adorable personality!)

You either didn’t grow much this month or we messed up measuring you last time.
Weight: 18 lbs 52% (down half a lb!)
Height: 26.5-27 inches 52% (you were very wiggly)

I love weekends

Last weekend was filled with fun get togethers. Saturday morning we had a family girls day plus Ron. Sienna, Grammy and I met Cari & Ariana at Mom's for breakfast. It was Ariana's first time (of very many) at Nana & Grandpa's house.

Sienna has learned to ham it up every time a camera comes out. Gee, maybe Mom takes too many pics?

Nana and her grand-babies.

I foresee many more pics of these two in the future as well. My coworker, Mary, made the girls matching hats so we had to have them modeled.


Sunday morning the Lindner's came to visit. Abbie & Sienna seemed to enjoy each other's company. Abbie is getting so close to pushing forward onto all 4s. Sienna was quite content to watch her do it.



They shared so well. :)

It may feel like fall..

But we still tried to enjoy what is supposed to be spring.







Maybe this snowfall will actually be the last?

Now That's a Cute Baby

A BIG thanks to everyone who voted for Sienna in the photo contest! All of your hard work paid off off and we won 2nd place!!! Thanks to all of you, Sienna won a $250 visa gift card. It actually turned out that 2nd had a better prize than 1st, in my opinion. First won a $350 photo shoot, which would be fun but money is always more practical.

Thanks again!!

For the Grandparents Part I

A typical night at the Jovle house these days.

Cousins first play date

We headed up to Cari & Greg’s house for Justin to meet Ariana. She is such a little peanut and so cute. She wasn’t awake for very long while we were there but we got to see her eyes for a few moments.

Sienna played so hard she fell asleep cuddled up next to the cat stand. I’m not so sure Maya liked sharing it.

Ariana tried to join in the snooze fest. Sienna looks like such a giant next to her!
