Pumpkin Fairy

Sunday we got to test out Samantha's Halloween outfit, she is a Pumpkin Fairy! Which only seemed fitting because her nickname is Punkin'. I was proud because this is the first thing I have made her and I thought it turned out cute. She loves to sit in the grass, and dig her toes in! And yes she tried to eat her shirt and her skirt.

Maybe this will work!

Hello all,

After seeing some blogs I have decided to try this Blog thing out. I love sharing little bits of our lives and adventures with our family and friends and I hope this will be a great way to do it! I went back and posted some from the past and will try to stay on top of things. Wish me luck!

Picking a Pumpkin for Punkin'

October 19, 2008: Chad and I along with our friends Rob and Lorena took Samantha to the Farm Patch to pick out her very first pumpkin. As always I had the camera ready, and she knows what to do when she sees it! Her personality is blooming more and more each day. We still don't know if she will be laid back like her Daddy or sassy like her Momma! I think she will fit somewhere inbetween.

On 9/23/08 Samantha started daycare. This was a happy and sad day for me. I was able to take her with me to work since she was 3 weeks old. Now at 6 months old she is going to experience all different things. She is going to St. Joe's Eagles Nest and her teacher miss Tiffanee is great!

Pretty Smiles

Go Cowboys!
Samantha had her 6 month pictures taken at specialties photography and Marci did a great job. Nana and Aunt Cheryl came along to help with the smiles. We surprised Daddy with Cowboys pictures... he was happy!

such a big girl!

6 Months Old

Going to see Dr. Parr for Samantha's six month check up!

On September 7, 2008 Chad and I dedicated Samantha to Christ at Central Baptist Church in Bryan, TX. After the dedication we had a BBQ at our house to celebrate with all our family.

Bathing Beauty

On August 2, 2008 Samantha and I went to Mason's B-day party at Aerofit. She loved the water, and I couldn't resit putting her shades on!

Happy 4th of July!

Punkin is almost 4 months old now. This is her with her two cousins, Kaitlyn and Hailey. We spent the day at home with friends and family. Sat the 5th we all went to Rick and Ginger's famous July 4th Party!

My First Road Trip

On Memorial Day weekend (10 weeks old) we took our first road trip to Chad's parents (Mona and Dadad Herman) house. Samantha was so good in the car, she sleep the whole way there and most of the way back. It's a three hour trip so I was pretty proud.

Sleeping with Daddy

Aww how sweet they are when they are sleeping. Both of them... hee hee

On March 17, 2008 (St. Patty's Day) God blessed us with a princess, Samantha Grace. God is Good! This picture was taken when she was 17 days old. Mona (Chad's mom) and I took her to Sears, and I thought it was going to be a disaster! I had miscalculated my timing and she got hungry. Lucky the photographer was so sweet and gave us a few extra minutes and they turned out great.
