Greetings

Hey, Internet, how you doin' today?

Goth

This is what Sammy would look like with Mommy's dark hair. It really makes her skin look WHITER if that were possible!

Territorial

I don't know who wants to lay down on the blanket more, Mommy or Sammy.

Bellyflops

Sammy is now half-way on her way to crawling! She's up on her hands and knees rocking back and forth. Now all of us parents know that the next step will be moving that one hand out forward and balancing. Mommy thinks that it will happen this weekend. Keep your fingers crossed. Oh, and enjoy that end bellyflop! And don't you just love the irritating pitch of our voices?

This face

Between 10am and 11am is Sammy's nap time. This is what I get to look at until she falls asleep. That usually takes about 5 minutes. Then I quietly lay her down in her bed. This is part of our morning routine. Oh, and take a bazillion photos of her. That, too.

Dr. Mike and Dawn will be proud

Our dentist gave me this toothbrush a couple of months ago and said to start using it despite not having any teeth. Sammy, not me. Gah.

Visitors

Grampa Ed got a chance to visit yesterday with Mommy and Sammy. As you can see, he had an AWFUL time.

And so did Sammy.

Sometimes you feel like a nut

sometimes you don't

Family Reunions

Sammy partook in her very first 'Y' Family Reunion this past weekend. Cousins from Australia, Utah, Oregon, and of course the bulk of them from here in Nevada all attended. This was one of the photos that Daddy took. We're all watching Daddy try to make it downstairs from setting the timer on the camera to out in from of all the people. The first time he didn't make it...the second time, well, you'll see.

Please take note, part 2

Um, yeah, she's finally wearing shoes that almost fit. She's taking after Mommy with her shoe size. As opposed to her length (she's four feet tall now) or her weight (18.10 on Monday and 19.4 on WEDNESDAY) THE SAME WEEK. Let me explain: the changing table is UPSTAIRS. She weighs a ton right now with a dry diaper...I'm waiting...let it sink in....yeah. Dirty diaper=additional weight/how much food she ate the day before. She eats A Lot. Mucho. Anyway, back to the shoes..PUMA, baby, PUMA.
