Now this is a laugh

Hit the big play button to hear Samantha laughing.....

The new exersaucer

Samantha loves her new exersaucer. It's just like Michaela's.






New Camera











Dave got me a new Nikon D40X SLR Camera for Christmas. Too bad it didn't come with a photographer! Samantha was sitting in the chair by herself, so I thougth I'd try out the camera. And a friend of ours let us borrow their Bumbo (the purple spongy thing). It's supposed to teach babies how to sit. I just think she looks cute in it. An old exersaucer. Of course, we bought her a new, pink one like her cousin Michaela has.

19 Weeks



Nothing exciting going on, as we are all waiting to get home to Shetland. Samantha is growing and changing constantly.
Gianna (older) and Angelina waited for 9 long months for Samantha, so they are happy to finally be able to hold her.
We went to the doctor for her 4 months checkup and shots last week. She's 16 lbs 6 oz, and 25 inches long.

New Years Day 2008

She rolled over by accident when she was 6 weeks old, but now she means to roll over (at 15 weeks). The first time she really rolled over was yesterday morning, but today she did it 4 times in a row and keeps doing it when I put her on her back. And she can roll to both sides.

Samantha's Christmas booty


Thank you all for the wonderful gifts for Samantha.

Samantha's Christmas Show at Daycare












































Because there are 8 infants and only 2 teachers, we had to carry our own kids on stage for a song. While the older kids did their songs, we sat in the audience and took more pictures of Samantha. And then, Samantha met Mrs. and Mr. Claus. Mom, the last pictures are for you. The outfit came with a head garter belt (don't worry, I only put it on her for these pictures for you), and I put her in the little onesie because I felt bad dressing her up.

Christmas time











Dave, Samantha, and I went to John and Mare's for an early Christmas lunch.

I was trying to get a good picture of her, and then I realized they were all good!



More December







Samantha loves this little Leap Frog worm from her Aunt Liz and Deb.
