Tree Frog

Occasionally we get tree frogs on the window of our back door. Right now they are baby tree frogs. Siena & Lilli love them. Lilli gets so excited about them that she screams her version of the word frog (you'll hear it on the video). Stefano caught one and brought it into the house to let the girls see it and ever since then they get so excited when the frogs appear. Lilli and Siena were both hopping around the house like frogs.

Siena's Tower


Siena was playing quietly in her room yesterday (we should have known she was up to something). She built a great tower out of her VCR tapes.

Bee City
















We went to the Bee City petting zoo to get honey and let the girls see the animals. It has a lot of different animals for where it is located. The girls had a good time feeding and petting the animals. They got to see real llamas. Lilli was able to pet an alligator (Siena wouldn't do it). Siena and Lilli both got to pet the free roaming guinea hens (which were pretty tame, Stefano also got to hold one). We also bought some honey.

Maggie & Brian's Wedding Weekend










The girls were allowed to join us during our manicures/pedicures. Lilli & Siena were both able to get their nails painted. Siena was allowed to wear lipstick for the wedding. Siena was very good the whole day of the wedding. She played in the children's area of the Cummer Art Museum while we were all getting ready. We stayed an extra day with Nonna & Poppa after the wedding. I'll post more wedding photos when I get them.

Siena & Lilli Singing

These are videos of Lilli singing while reading a book. She had been doing this for about 20 minutes before we thought about getting a video of it. She does this all of the time now. Siena was also singing while playing with a puzzle. You can hear her on the first video so I thought I better get one of her also.

Park in Lineville, AL







While we were visiting Great Grandma we went to the park in Lineville, AL to feed the ducks and geese. Stefano was able to get a couple of them to eat from his hand. Lilli fell asleep on the way there and slept for the first part of the visit (we did wait to feed the ducks until after she woke up). Siena had fun playing at the playground. Lilli loved feeding the ducks (until they bit her hand thinking that she had food - she wasn't hurt, just scared).

Comparison Pictures





This is a picture of Siena at this park in 2009 and then pictures of Lilli and Siena at the same place in the park in 2011.

Montgomery Zoo









After Stefano finished his test we went to the zoo in Montgomery. Lilli recognized the monkeys and call them "monk-monk".

Shakespeare Park in Montgomery, AL







We went to the Shakespeare park in Montgomery, AL. This is the park that we visit every time we go out there. Lilli & Siena wanted to play with the ducks and geese. I'll post comparison pictures in another post.
