Get outta here!

My baby sister was born today at 8am.  And Mimi's new blog was born, too.  Please go www.sammyolivia.blogspot.com  from now on.  Bye bye Daily Samantha.....

I'm a little busy today, so.....

So I am just gonna eat this chocolate donut that has sprinkles on it and head off to the hospital.  Why?  Have you not been paying attention?  My baby sister, Whosits, is being born this morning!  I am no longer an only child raising my mommy and daddy.  Now reinforcements are here!

The only child

Here is the last photo I have of Sammy as an only child with her Mommy and Daddy.

Swimming Pool

Yesterday we delivered a tree for Mommy and Daddy.  While it got planted, Mommy got Sammy's pool put together and filled with water.  Sammy loves her pool!  At first she put one foot in and, as the water was cold, quickly pulled her foot back out.  Within five minutes she was wholly in the pool, dress and diaper wet, enjoying herself immensly!  Off came the diaper and the dress and our little mermaid was splashing around.  The pool has an awning so little baby skin won't burn.  She's going to have a fun summer with this! 

Who's Bench?

I told Mammie, er, Sammy that Papa bought this special bench for our patio.  She wanted to know if it was Sammy's bench and I told her that she had to share it.  Padden's bench?  Yes, it would be his, too.  Whosits bench?  Yes, even little Whosit can sit there.  But Sammy seemed more concerned that Papa needed to sit in the bench with her.  And you can bet I'll be there with the camera for that one!

Dining al fresco

Miss Priss here decided that she'd take her breakfast outside, thank you very much.  (See how smart I am?  Served her in a plastic container instead of my usual dishes.  Hey, I could just see her fling a bowl out into the yard....)

Welcome to the 1950s

Sammy found the drawer where I throw these velcro curlers and after seeing them in my hair (!) she wanted to try them, too.

Happy Second Blog Birthday

Today this blog two years old.  This many :::holding up two fingers:::  I didn't think I could do it every day but I did with the occasional help from Mommy!  Yea Me!

Mammy help

She's a good little helper.  But she needs to come over here and help me now.

This is Joe Carcione with your tip of the day...................

Like many this past holiday weekend in our area, enjoyed beautiful weather finally.  And that meant for some, yard work.  Using her birthday gift of gardening tools, Sammy helped Daddy as only a two year old can 'help'.

Pony

Sammy doesn't say Pony Tail, she just says Pony.  So Pony it is when she comes over and I fix her 'do.

I do it

Sammy prefers to tie her own shoes.

Tie-it

Tie-it is Sammy's way of saying, "Shhh, QUIET"  the baby birds are sleeping!!  (right behind the light is their nest)

OMG!

Sammy showed up in theses the other day and I was laughing so hard!  Leave it to Mommy to find True Religion jeans for her daughter!  I just love the fact that when this girl bends over you see an Elmo diaper not a thong!

Mmmm, Parmesan

The other day at lunch, Sammy saw a tub of parmesan cheese and decided the world would end if she didn't have it.  As you can see, the world didn't end.  You're welcome.

Wedgie

Yikes!

For you, Auntie

Sammy had just put the binkie in Camden's mouth and then she decided that Auntie needed one, too!

May flowers

Even with milk on her face, she is absolutely blooming!

** two weeks from today, Whosits joins the family!

Fashion plate

Everyone knows that before you leave the house, check the mirror.  Hat? Check.  Coat? Check.  Necklace? Check.  Gladiator Sandals? Check.  Ready to go.

Noodles!

Sammy loves her noodles!  She's become a two-fisted eater with them!  Be careful Sammy; if you take after your Mommy's side of the family, no problem.  But if you take after your Daddy's side of the family, pasta will be the death of your hips.
