What a Fun August

We have had a really nice summer and have done a lot this month. Siena started school and is doing well. The drop off tantrums are still occurring but her teachers say that she calms down quickly and is participating in all of the activities which is great to hear.

We spent a bunch of time in RI and got some good beach time in as well as my roommate from college, Lynn, and her family came for a nice visit. We had a good ol' fashion clam boil which was yummy, took a bunch of walks and bike rides on the bike path and hit the beaches.

I am sad that August is coming to an end. I am also back to reality on Monday and headed back to work. I am looking forward to catching up with everyone!

1st Day of School

Siena started daycare today and had a great day. According to her teachers she was helpful, played well with the other kids and participated in all of the activities. When I picked her up she didn't want to leave which is a good sign.

We are starting her out 2 days per week for 4 hours to get her used to the routine and the transition. When I go back to work in a few weeks she will go full-time.

We are hoping that Thursday goes just as well. Keep your fingers crossed for us!

Siena's Crazy Face

When Siena gets excited she makes what we call her, "crazy face." She clenches her fists and jaw and shakes a bit. It is very humorous to us. It obviously doesn't take too much! :)
