Sam came into my office to tell me something ‘very sad’. She got a ‘Play of the Day’ certificate!! She is such a trickster (she tries to be), I wonder who she got that from? (Anyone who knows my husband is groaning right now.) The only one to get the certificate out of her group […]
Sam: Well, when GG goes pee in the potty today, I want to find my baby ring to give to him. It’s in my room somewhere so can you help me find it tonight? We’ll have to search and search and search for it to give to him. She means a gold baby bracelet that […]
The scene: Snuggling on Sam’s bed and reading a mountain of books to her as she continues to feel sick from the flu. GG is playing nearby. The book: Bob: And 6 More Christmas Stories by Sandra Boyton Me: GG, what do YOU want for Christmas? GG: I want a candy cane for Christmas! Me: […]
Happy Birthday to my beautiful 5 year old! Just a note that I am totally writing this on JANUARY 9th but I am back-dating it to December so I can find it later! Isn’t she gorgeous? Beautiful dress that she received from Grandma JJ the night before and she let me braid her hair. We […]

We had an exciting birthday week in December for Sam. We had her holiday singing recital at school where we all dressed up and got to listen to all the preschoolers sing. 🙂 So cute! Sam wore her new lady bug clippies and her Christmas dress. It was also her All About Me week at […]
When Sam got up this morning, I showed her the Sneaky Peeky photos that DrewB took yesterday. She loved them and I was also showing her who had ‘liked’ the photos and what they said or commented on. Later, we were having breakfast and she wanted to know who liked the photos. I told her […]
The smile on his face is the reason why I love my life! He was so happy to be on them and just loved it! Pure joy. I had to take a video because he was so cute. The last few seconds just show his pure excitement about the ride. He was loving life. So […]

Brave, brave girl shaking hands with Rosie!

My baby turned four a few weeks ago! I can’t believe how old she is. She suddenly seems so much more grown up. She can write her name, tell jokes, do some addition, has lots of different friends, and is such a sweet and helpful girl. She had a week full of parties and birthday fun times and I […]
Wow, these kids really live it up. They run around, play, get tons of treats and toys, and then get to take a nap and do it all over again when they get up. And during the last week in October, that just doubles in craziness! LOL We have actually had only two parties this […]
I just put in an order for Sam’s preschool backpack! I’m so excited about it. I gave her ten different choices and printed them out on a piece of paper. I did not include the princess or Dora backpacks that we had seen at Target. After she looked at all of them very closely, she […]
I’ve been thinking about preschool for Sam and whether or not she needs a backpack. For the past few weeks I was thinking, nah, she doesn’t need a backpack. I didn’t really remember seeing any in their cubicles when we toured the school but then again, I didn’t really remember… Then Pottery Barn for Kids […]
I am so sad. Sammie’s lovey which she had attached herself to for the past two years has been tossed aside and forgotten. A few days ago she started laying out blankets everywhere and putting two of her dolls and piggy to ‘sleep’ in our room. Then, when it was time for bed she didn’t […]
We finally selected a preschool after so much deliberation! I’ve been to so many websites, visited the schools, talked with way too many people to remember… There are so many great preschools out there. We almost went with Hillsborough which has a wonderful development program with specific curriculum in reading and math that sounded fantastic. […]
