What is a Bumbo? It’s just the greatest seat for little babies who can’t sit up on their own. It’s also really handy to sit them in on counters while you are washing dishes, on the table, at restaurants, etc. We love our Bumbo. Loved… Today Sam was able to get out of it. I’m […]

Yea! Yesterday she rolled across the floor, braced herself against the packnplay, and sat up herself. We thought it was a fluke…. Today, I put her down for a nap (awake) and went in twice to soothe… Each time she was sitting up by herself! No, the nap did not work, I just got her […]

Wow! We have a little spot of white poking through on Sam’s bottom right gum. Today she has been sticking her fist in her mouth often and drooling a little more than usual. She was in a bad mood in the afternoon but I think that was because she woke up from her nap early. […]

Happy 8 months to Sammy Leigh! We woke up today at 5, but slept in together until 730. We went to swim lessons, which sadly she didn’t like at all. I’m not sure if the water was to cold, she was hungry, or tired… probably all three. We will have to mix things up tomorrow. […]
Just kidding 🙂 She’s not walking yet! Her favorite activity is for us to sit her down on the floor and hold our hands out to her. She grabs our hands, pulls herself up to a standing position, and then she ‘walks’ to us. Repeat! She loves it! 🙂 She smiles so big and shrieks […]
Argh, our little cutiepie started sleeping through the night at 6 weeks. I felt nice and smug getting my 8 hours of sleep. It was awesome. Then, around 5 1/2 months it stopped. I think I talked about it before. It keeps getting worse. The past few nights she will get up and instead of […]

On Thursday we had our first swimming lesson! It was so much fun. A Mom in our playgroup that we joined decided to have one of the swim teachers from Fullerton JC to her house since they don’t teach in August. We are in the Mommy & Me class with four other kids. The pool […]

Well, I’ve uploaded 5 videos to Google and it’s telling me they are verified and will be online shortly. That was two day ago. Sheesh! Maybe Google video is not for me… until they get their act together anyway!! Not that the videos are of crazy awesome things that Sam is doing, but I think […]

Sam is sitting up now in her small bathtub instead of lying back on the hammock when we have bathtime. She loves it, splashes around, plays with some floatie toys. I’m perched higher than her (sitting next to the bathtub on our step) so it’s difficult for me to figure out how to wash her […]

I love it when I look in my review mirror in the car to take a peek at how Sam is doing and I see her sucking on her TOES in her car seat. That girl is LIMBER. How do babies stretch their toes all the way up to their mouth like that? It’s crazy. […]

The 4th was an awesome day. I think I briefly chatted about it but I wanted to upload some photos as well. It was such a beautiful day. The picture of Sam was such a good one. Her eyes are so blue and I don’t think they are changing! I know the Dr said that […]

“I love Baby Sammy”“Baby Sammy is so cute”“Baby Sammy is so sweet” Said by Kara… Oh, every 15 min. 🙂 “What’s that?” “It’s a toothbrush”“Ohhhh” *nodding very knowledgably* “Where did you get it from?”“The store”“Ohhhh”“What’s that?” “It’s a duck”“Ohhhh” “Where did you get it from?”“ToysRUs”“Ohhhh” Asked by Kara for virtually everything. That girl is hilarious […]

Since Samable’s (we call her that, I don’t know why?) month-day was on Sunday, that marked another month of weight loss for me! I’ve been keeping track of my weight loss by her birth-month-days. Sheesh, did that make any sense? Well, I’ve lost 3 pounds this month! Woohoo!! Go me. I lost 4 pounds last […]

I have been so busy lately so no posts, as you can see. Yesterday was her ‘month-day’ for 7 months. She is growing so big. I’m posting this at 615am today as she didn’t get an afternoon nap, was a crank-butt, and went to sleep at 730pm instead of 815pm and resulted in a loooong […]

Yea! Sam finally learned how to roll both ways *at the same time* today! She was sitting down on the floor and Talis & Callie (the cats) were both sitting around her so she was in HEAVEN! She kept squeaking with joy and when they moved a few feet over she fell back on the […]
