Squares

We got these square mats for the girls to play with downstairs on the title. They really are creative in what they do with them. Sienna likes to pick them up and move them around. Tessa likes me to call out a number and she jumps on each square based on the color. They both get upset if Bailey comes by and steps on the squares. Tessa will say, "Bailey, not on my square!"

Buena Noches

Tonight the girls wanted to call everyone to say good night. We called Poppa, Abuela, Tita, and Daddy. Sienna was the ring leader and she would tell me who to dial. Tessa is not much of a phone person so she only says hello and good bye.

Family Car Wash

Today was car washing day. Andres, and the girls all washed their cars. The girls love to help their Daddy wash the car even if they wash only one side of the car and usually in the same spot.

Rocket

We bought a rocket launcher for the girls. It is air propelled and they love it. Tessa gets a kick from stepping on the air stomp really hard and seeing the rocket hit our ceiling. Sienna just laughs and laughs when she does it. She of course is also the rocket re-launcher.

Night Time Reading

Every night we read 3 books to the girls. Currently they are, the Nose Book, There's a Wocket in my Pocket and The Lion King. Tessa's favorite is the Lion King and Sienna just goes along for the ride. They love hearing these books over and over. Tessa is now reading There's A Wocket in my Pocket to us. It is the cutest thing.

NO Sienna!

Sienna loves to climb. Here she is climbing on her rocking horse on our tile floor. She is trying to stand up on it. She is my little dare devil.

Tessa and Jackpop's

Tessa loves to play with her Jackpop's. Here she is playing that they are jumping around a wall trying not to fall into the watery pit below. The watery pit is Bailey's water bowl.

ABC News

Charlie Gibson of ABC World news was at Idealab this morning. He interviewed my CEO Bill Gross of Idealab were I work. The segment was entitled "California's Innovative Ideas". The set-up in the office took about 2 hours and the interview lasted about 20 minutes if that. I love working at Idealab every day is a new excitement.

Yummy!!!

Sienna really loves to lick her spoon after eating ice cream. However, she doesn't get to pick the flavor. She leaves it up to Tessa to pick for her. When I ask the girls what kind of ice cream they want Tessa says chocolate. When I ask Sienna, she looks at her sister and then Tessa answers, "Vanilla." Then about mid way, Tessa will say, "Sienna, here is chocolate."

Art Day

Painting was today's activity. I got out the paints and let the girls paint some pictures. It started out fairly easy until Sienna started eating the paint; Tessa used her finger nails to paint her picture. In the end, the girls each painted their hands, face and their shirts. They also made some very nice pieces of art.
