Toys and Tummy

We finally let Samantha start playing with her toy box for fear that she would smash her fingers. Still looking for hydraulic henge's if anyone knows where to find some. My grandfather made this hope chest for me when I was younger and it's so awesome to see Samantha getting to use it as a toy box. She is becoming a good "helper" and will pick up a few toys when asked. She has also been learning her body parts. She knows her head, eyes, nose, ears, mouth, toes, and now tummy.

God Bless America!

Happy 4th of July! We had a great weekend, we played a lot in the back yard and then we went to a pool party. Samantha didn't get to see fireworks this year but we will for sure next year.

Happy Father's Day

Happy Father's Day to My Daddy!

I have the best daddy in the whole world... he does all kinds of cool stuff with me. He tickles me and chases me around the house saying he is going to get me... I love that! He helps my Momma around the house washing my clothes and all my cups. He reads me books at night before I go to sleep, and we even have a special day every week. Monday's my daddy is off work and he hangs out with me all day! Momma says I'm really a lucky girl.

This is me on Father's Day checking out the horses at my Mona's (Chad's Mom)house. I love the country!

Cooking

I like to help Momma cook dinner.... I'm stirring it up!

My Little Aggie

WHOOP...


I asked Samantha if she wanted to be an Aggie when she grows up.....she smiled and ohhh. I guess Momma and Daddy needed to start saving!

Bows, Bows, and more Bows!

Samantha loves her bows! I went to get her from her nap and she pointed to her bow board and said "bow" so I put all the ones she asked for in her hair! Every girl needs her accessories!

I Love to Color!!!

Samantha loves to color! I thought she might be to young for regular colors... worried she might eat them. I was wrong! She does great, and is so content. Yea... I found something else to keep her busy while I cook dinner!

Happy Birthday Daddy!

Happy Birthday Daddy I love you!

Happy Mother's Day!

Samantha and I on Mother's Day. Samantha has learned a new word "bow"! She now picks out her own bows. I put a small pink clip in her hair and she kept pulling it out. So I walked into her room and showed her bow board and said do you want a bow? She pointed to the flower and said "bow"! So we wore the flower and she never took it off...... I'm in trouble!

New Pool

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!
