Best of Buds

Sienna is Papa's shadow. She eats breakfast with him in the morning, makes him read to her, makes him sing for her and is constantly running around the house looking for him. Yesterday was 80 degrees and gorgeous so Dan and I took the girls to the park and then played tennis.
.

Swings are still Sienna's favorite thing to do at the park..

I love that Sadie can swing with Sienna now and she loves it too.

She started doing this new thing with her tongue where she curls it up. It is so cute.

This is the face Sienna made when I told her not to smile. She is the queen of funny facial expressions. She loves to open her mouth wide open and close her eyes as tight as she can at the same time.
.
This wasn't the easiest slide for papa to go down but he did it anyway because Sienna asked him to.
.
We tried to get Sienna to go down by herself but she turned to Dan and said, "Papa, hold Sienna" and papa does anything Sienna wants.

Best of buds.

Sadie wanted a turn too but she is brave enough to go by herself.

Papa and his girls. Sienna is doing one of her facial expressions where she closes her eyes super tight.

I'm a bit jealous that it's warm enough for you guys to go to a park and play outside. This whole under 20 degree thing is gettin old. Haha

So so so fun and cute! It is good that I get my turn in a couple of weeks or I would be beyond jealous. Thanks for keeping Papa happy. SLY

I love their facial expressions. Siennas face when you told her not to smile, is hilarious. She looks like a young you with those eyes.
