3 Months Old

We finally got around to doing Sienna's 3 month old pictures. Our good friend in our ward took them for us and they turned out super cute.
.
She was so happy. We had the hardest time keeping her hands out of her mouth though.

Sienna tried to eat me when I gave her a kiss.

This is Matt's favorite.

Sienna had enough and was trying to escape. At least she kept a smile on her face.


Hands in the mouth.

So happy!

We tried to put flowers around her and she immediately picked them up and put them in her mouth.

Pucker up for a wet Sienna kiss.

Chubby Girl

Sienna is super strong and can support her weight fairly well. Today in church she was standing up against the church bench.
.

Sienna loves being naked and gets happier with every article of clothing we take off. Especially, when it means that she gets a bath.

CHUBBY GIRL!

We're taking her 3 month old pictures tomorrow in these jeans and a cute white top. I can't believe she is already 3 months and then some.

People thought her hair looked more blonde today than usual. I am sure that is only because she was in a cute yellow dress. Sienna loves dresses because they come with a few layers of fabric for her to suck on.

Rain, Rain, GO AWAY!

Matt's family spent the weekend with us. We were supposed to have 60% chance of rain every day they were here but we were very blessed with good weather when we needed it. We were able to go to a Rangers baseball game, Six Flags, the temple, and much more. It rained the morning that we went to Six Flags but cleared up enough for us to enjoy all of the rides. It started pouring soon after we left the park. The same thing happened with the temple. It rained while everyone was inside but stopped right as we were getting ready to leave. It cleared up again while we went into Dallas to see the 6th Floor Museum and grassy knoll and once again started pouring as we were leaving.

We are very happy to hear that Matt's family got back to Utah this morning without any delays. Flights before and after them were all canceled but they made it home without problems. This is very surprising considering that we Texas received 18 inches of rain yesterday and there were many scattered storms this morning as well. This is the most rain that Matt and I have seen since moving here in January. Our street actually started to flood a little bit.

Sienna's first Major League Baseball game... and the Rangers won!

The three most beautiful girls in the world. Sienna loves her aunties and had so much fun hanging out with them all weekend.

The Rangers stadium was amazing. Sienna was such a trooper with everything we did over the weekend. She was such a happy girl and loved being outside.

Daddy's girl! I got a bow to stay in her hair all day... it was so exciting.

Sienna with grandma and grandpa at Six Flags. Sienna and grandma had a great time strolling the park while everyone else enjoyed the rides.

All ready to go outside.

Having fun at Six Flags.

Taking a quick break.

The family on Matt's birthday.

Birthday boy and his baby.

She still loves being naked.

Happy Birthday, Matt! He is now 24.

Sienna and the girls. Sienna was sad to see that everyone was gone this morning but she got over it because she will see everyone in a week when we go to Utah. We get to go see Uncle Kirk, Uncle Kyle, and 'Aunt Jamie' for the last time for the next little while. Kirk is currently on his last leave in Utah before he will be deployed in the fall. He will probably be able to make it to Utah a couple more times over the weekend but this is his last extended stay. Both Kyle and Jamie are going on missions. Jamie is going to Spain and Kyle is opening his mission call tonight. We can't wait to hear where he is going.

Little Slugger

Relaxing after work.

I love when she just stares at you.

Sienna is getting a little cold and has slept all morning but she woke up just long enough to give us some smiles.

She is such a happy girl.

Here's our little slugger. She is mommy's #1 fan at her softball games. I get to play on a co-ed softball team with Matt's work. It is so nice to be playing again.

Cute little bum

She is still always on the move.

Sienna's newest nickname is bunny because she nibbles on her top lip. I couldn't get the best picture but it is hilarious.

Sienna and Benjamin

This week has gone by very fast but has been a lot of fun. My dad bought an '07 Saleen Extreme online from Dallas so he flew out here with my brother Jake late Thursday night. It was a lot of fun seeing them, even if it was only for about 15 hours. We picked the car up Friday afternoon and they hit the road to drive home shortly after. It was nice of them to come all the way to Texas just to eat lunch with us! I am sad that I didn't take any pictures of the car or them while they were here. I have been a slacker with my camera lately. The Saleen is gorgeous and has already topped my dad's favorite car list with his GT and Shelby. It is black and has a glass sky-view. It is kind of fun being able to see through the entire top of the car.
Sienna had fun with grandpa and Uncle Jake. She didn't think that Uncle Jake would ever make it out to Texas to see us- but where there are cars, there are Liechtys.
.
This is Sienna's favorite position now. She rolls over almost instantly when you put her down but she still spends most of her time on her side waving her legs every which way.

This week I started babysitting our friends' little boy, Benjamin. After a couple hours, both babies got tired and fell asleep on me.

Some people might think I am crazy for trying to watch babies that are only 6 months apart, but Ben is such a happy-easy baby. We have a lot of fun and he is intrigued by Sienna.

Ben playing with toys and Sienna rolling around.

Sienna is getting bigger, more beautiful, and louder every day. It is a lot of fun talking to her because often times she will respond with many noises of her own. She is also starting to play with her toys and can grab onto things better.

So Much Attention

Sienna loves Utah because she gets endless attention. We don't have many pictures from the trip that aren't of Sienna being held.

I think Cole gave Sienna the most kisses. He was so good with all of the babies.

Grandma LaRae was the best at getting Sienna to sleep.
