Healthier days

This was taken last weekend. When she was feeling her oats. Before THE COLD. Hopefully, this precious smile will be back in no time flat.

Uh oh

This is Sammy looking up at me after I told her that pushing that button, yes that button, right there on the computer, no that one, would make me very sad. She's learning the word no. And the full comprehension of the word won't take effect until she has children of her own.

Sick Baby

Isn't this pitiful? Little Sammy has come down with her first cold. She has her moments when it's as if she isn't sick at all, babbling away, playing with her toys and crawling everywhere. And then? Little thing will just sit and tear up. Nose running, so sad. And her cheeks are so red from her temperature. Mommy took her to the doctor Wednesday.

Come on, let's play!

Sammy is ready to play. Are you?

Stillness

Unless she's sleeping, Sammy doesn't sit still for very long. She's mobile! But today, while I was taking this shot, some birds were chattering away outside the window and Sammy looked up. Bingo!

The Eyes of Love

Daddy took this picture yesterday. Mommy adores her baby girl.

Here, let me...

This looks like Sammy and an unknown hand are grabbing for the lunch check at the same time...

"No, really, I'll get it this time, you get it next time..."

Frito Bandito

I was finally let out of the house on Friday and met with Grumpa, Mommy, Daddy, and Sammy for lunch at our favorite Mexican restaurant. I was made to sit as far away from Sammy as possible as my head cold is still hanging on. (but it's on the wane big time) Sammy showed interest in all the food and you could tell that she'd really like to try that salsa, or maybe the burrito? In the end, Mommy gave a little bite of guacamole.

Yummy!

Sammy loves applesauce!

Expressive Eyes

When I got a look at this photo of Sammy on the computer I couldn't believe it. Her eyes are going to be somebody's downfall in the future. First and foremost will be Daddy.

Toofs

I love this photo because it shows how fast her teeth are coming in and what an infectious smile she has.

Morning nappy

Mommy took this picture for me on Monday. Mommy has been bringing Sammy to work and here she is taking a morning snooze in her crib at work. I haven't been watching Sammy for a few days because I've come down with a bad head cold. And due to this, I asked Mommy for a new photo since I miss that That Baby so much. Don't you just want to snuggle with her?

Hair Today....

I wanted to show you how well Sammy's hair is coming in. The last time I tried to take a photo of it, I had to put her into the sunlight just so that the hair would show by reflection. Now you can see it laying on her head!! And, when she wakes up, she has baby bed head. Naturally the longest hair is on top, about 2 inches worth. And no, it's not curly. Yet.

Truckin'

Since Sammy is crawling now, Mommy prefers to keep her in her jammys during the day. How comfortable is that? Wouldn't you like to sit around in your pj's all day long? (Jammys are easier to keep clean unlike those white velour juicy's)

Happy Valentine's Day

You've all heard of that See-Food diet?

Sammy's version of it:

Hobbies

Mimi, can you teach me how to scrapbook?

All the lower items on my shelving has now been locked tight, put up, or whatever else I could do with it. Now, when she learns how to work ziplock bags, we're in trouble!

How true...

One man's trash is another man's treasure.

Baby proofing, STAT!

...and my office just got a lot smaller....



or this?

In the seat of power

Checking out that great screen saver...

I am in controlWho updated my Facebook page?

Good God, Woman, get that away from me!

She's a Biker Babe

Does this remind anyone else of the old Peanuts comic strip with the little kid on the back of the mother's bike? This is Nana taking little Sammy for ride in Redondo.

Sammy Baby

This is the new doll baby that I found for Sammy...please note the doll's name. Ahem. Yes.

The doll has blonde hair and blue eyes. Sound familiar?
They became fast teething friends.

Photogenic

I have to admit, our Sammy is extremely photogenic. And she has no fear or shyness in front of the camera. Ya think?

Swingtime

Can you see the palm trees? The ocean? The white sand? What kind of vacation is that?

I'm on vacation!

Sammy and Mommy are currently in Redondo spending some time with Nana. Here is a photo that Mommy sent up to me of Sammy enjoying the warm weather on their walk.

Superbowl Sunday

GO TEAM! GO....wait...who's playing again?
