brusha.. brusha... brusha

We got Samantha a big girl tooth brush and she loves it. We were singing the song from grease " brusha .. brusha"! She just laughed and looked at me like "Momma you are crazy.. but I love ya!"

Sharing with Daddy

Samantha loves her daddy.. she even shared her goldfish with him.

Ready for Summer!

We tried on Samantha bathing suit today, and she got so excited. She had to put her hat on all by herself.... she was so proud of herself!

Our Easter Bunny!

Momma's Bunny!




Finding eggs with Daddy.




"The Girls" after church






This Easter was so fun! We started our day with a wonderful service at Church then out to Nana & Papa Asher's for lunch and egg hunting. Samantha was able to hunt for eggs this year or as she calls them "balls". She would walk around and say Ball.... Ball. She even got a few in her basket. It was really cute, and of course Kaitlyn and Hailey were running all around. I feel truly blessed to have spent the day with my family.

Kaitlyn starts t-ball!

Samantha loves the ballpark, she was watching Kaitlyn and talking away!


Kaitlyn posing before her game.

Kaitlyn hitting the ball.... and yes I'm yelling GO Kaitlyn GO!

Hanging out with her Daddy after the first game.

Bubbles.. Bubbles.. Bubbles

Samantha got a bubble blower for her b-day so we tried it out after work today. She loves Bubbles now, and so does Maddie (our dog). Maddie was running and jumping around all over the place and Samantha laughed so hard. I think she really had more fun watching Maddie! More of a reason every kid needs a Dog! :)

Samantha's 1st Birthday Party!

We had Samantha birthday at home with family and friends on Sunday March 22nd. It was a hit .... I was so stressed about everything but it turned out great.



She really did "dig" in to her cake... but she liked what she ate.



Yes, she is on top of her bubble lawn mover.. she couldn't wait to play with it!

The Family!

Samantha's first car!

Nana and PaPa Asher got Samantha her very first car for her birthday and she loves it. I was at home with her yesterday afternoon and all I did was push the car around! She just laughs and smiles so big it's hard to stop. I think she may have me figured out!

Happy 1st Birthday Samantha

My baby is 1.... it's so hard to believe and so exciting all at the same time. We had Samantha's pictures taken a few weeks ago, here are some of the good ones. It was so hard to choose. Her personality is really coming out and she sure is a SASSY little thing!

Having fun at Nana & PaPa Asher

PaPa and Samantha both drinking their milk before bed.


Kaitlyn and Hailey playing in the tree.



No one can say My little girl doesn't look like her daddy!




Showing us her necklace... that she had to have with her all day!





Blowing bubbles with Momma.

She looks so big in this picture, I can't believe she is going to be a year old in a few days. This year has gone by so fast. Samantha took her first steps on Monday the 9th while she was at home with her Daddy! I'm so thankful that God has blessed us and we are able to watch her grow.

~~ 11 Months Old ~~

So this is how our little photo session goes these days.. she is running away!

One Quick smile..

Rip of the Bow and get the play money.. and that is a wrap!

This is Samantha showing of her newest thing! She can stand all by herself. No walking yet, but we think it is coming soon. She also likes to hand you things so she can hear you say "Thank you" but she expects you to give it back within a few seconds. She is also learning a lot more cause and effect! She loves to throw her cup and say uuuhhhh ooooohh! I can't help but smile, it cute!

It is so crazy that she is already 11 months old. To think last year at this time I could wait for another 3 weeks to go by and now it's going by to fast. God has blessed us in so many ways with her and she continues to amaze me everyday!

Valentine's Day in the Park

Momma sweet Valentine


Are they not the cutest!



Having fun in the tunnel!



Samantha and Holden


On Saturday, Samantha and I went to the park with Kelly, Holden, and Samantha's grand-parents. They had so much fun on the slides and tunnel. Of course I was there with my camera!! We couldn't stay to long because it was starting to get cold. I can't wait till summer so we can play more at the park.

XOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOX

Happy Valentine's Day.. Samantha had a little party at "school" today so I went to see her. She is in her new class now with Ms. Daphne, and she loves her! This is the first time Samantha has gotten any "real" sweets. What can I say.... she loved it, and ended up eating two cookies! Here are a few of the pictures I took... you all know I had to take pictures! haha







See my little teeth!

I love this look...

Play Time

Playing with Money already!


We decided to put a toy corner in Samantha's room after Christmas because of all the toys she got. She loves it!! She will even crawl in there to play by herself. Which I have to say is pretty cool!

Shopping!

Samantha is shopping at Pottery Barn! She loves magazines, or at least loves to tear them up. Luckily she just likes to tear them and not eat them!
