Hello World



Well what a few weeks it has been since I last checked in...
Sam has had the following:
A viral rash- non contagious- thank the lord
An Ear infection that is now on it's second dose of antibiotics!
Pink Eye- thank you mother who kept insisting her child had allergies instead had pink eye, who in turn passed it to everyone in the class! No seriously I feel bad for the boy and in defense of the mom I thought Sam's was allergies at first but also have been told her's wasn't nearly as bad as everyone elses due to the antibiotic we were on for the ear infection.

So here is a montage of things that happened since we last saw you...


Sam's new song- I wear sunglasses at night....


the child is a hat freak! she would also only wear it backwards!



New way to sit lady like on the couch



but it's better than this way

Or trying to use the couch as a trampoline and dance stage


on nice days we played with chalk






and even met a caterpillar
On rainy days we painted our toe nails
Have a great weekend!

A Hit!

I have so many pictures to upload and so so many blogs to write - but no time. Here is a quick one to tell you guys about what is all the Rage in our House:

First of we sing along to Taylor Swift- The one that gets the most cheers and dancing is her song "You Belong To Me" Sam is so cute cheering for it when it comes on and ends!



The world fades away when these two characters are spotted in a store or are on tv:


Abby Cadabby

And


Elmo!

She would literally sit in front of the tv all day if I would let her watching Sesame Street!

As it is she walks around all day calling Abby and Belmo (Elmo) hoping we will put the show or one of the many DVD's we have on. Needless to say we DVR this show religously.

Last and most important of all Sam loves Babies! She always has a baby in tow and if she sees one she has to hold it or at least touch a baby when we see a real live one in person. She points them out in books, on tv - anywhere she sees one. She is a great little mother to all her babies!




Have a good weekend!

Big Weekend



This past weekend we joined our friends Kristi, Hailey and Sadie at a Easter Egg Hunt at Moody Park. Unfortunately there were more kids than eggs but we still had a lot of fun!


While Sadie got her face painted

Hailey helped me keep track of Sam who decided to explore

After the hunt we headed to the playground


Sam loved watching all the kids


and swinging

Next we headed to the slides


Which was another big hit!

Sunday we headed over to see my grandmother and the lobby of the nursing home was decorated - Ready for Easter

Here Sam is checking out a bunny playing hide n seek

But the best think of all was the bunny sitting on the couch
She loved on it forever and I am sure wanted to take it home with her!


After exploring my grandmother's floor we found this cool
Flamingo that Sam loved. We were having teething issues
and this seemed to help cheer her up till the orajel could take effect.
Hope everyone has a safe and happy Easter!

Sassy!



A friend of ours gave me a "Easter" hat a few months ago. I placed it aside and the other day while going through her closet I came across it and showed it to her. Let's say it was an instant hit. Each night has become hat time. Here are a few cute shots from tonight before bed.





I love this look- she is such a mess!

Adding a necklace only makes it better!

That's all folks!
Good Night!

Happy Birthday Mimi!



Yesterday was my mom's birthday. In true great Mimi fashion she picked out chocolate cupcakes with Seasame Street designs on them (well rings)- of course Elmo went to Sam who I think was more excited about that then the chocolate cupcake.....


Well maybe not by the look of this messy face!



Aww Sweet cupcake kisses!


Happy Birthday Mimi!
