Accidents happen...

...only this kind left me with those shivers you get after hearing a painful, frightening story. And of course, what kind of mother would I be if I wasn't there to document it first hand.

Unfortunately these photos do not to this shiner justice...






The story is the real creepy part. Sam was running around the house trying to get the dog to chase her. As she was running through the toy room she tripped or stubbed her toe on something (probably a toy, not gonna lie the room is a complete disaster so it's no wonder this never happened sooner). As she was still in the running momentum she grabbed her foot and began to fall. Rather than let go of her foot to brake her fall, she simply let her face do that for her... against the small play table. That small scrape next to her eye is where her face hit. Thank goodness for calm Daddies that know just what to do and how to handle this kind of stuff.

So now we've taught her that anytime anyone looks at her funny or says anything about her eye her response is... 'if you think this is bad, you should see the other guy!' Thank goodness she's our little toughy!

Whoa baby, it's been a lonnnng time!

OK, here we go... my attempt to play catch up... Scrolling down you see it was just a few posts ago that I was so proud of my new lil 2nd grader. Well as time so often does it just flew right by and we just wrapped up 2nd grade year... watch out 3rd grade. As tradition in our house here is Sam's mini shoot commemorating her 2nd grade year.

Our prima ballerina!

Miss Sammy had her 2nd dance recital with Miss Annie's dance class. I was beaming ear to ear watching her dance her heart out. She was absolutely beautiful, graceful and completely poised. I'm so glad she enjoys dance class and can't wait to start up the next session.

Another before and after... this one is not so dramatic...

Before: 4 bandanas (2 zebra print & 2 pink polka dot) After: 1 very ADORABLE bandana dress and 1 super STYLISH bandana shirt Now I know this is not a new concept here, but I am really quite proud of my little sewing creation. So proud that I'm sure the girls are going to be screaming and chanting 'put down the bandana and just walk away'. These were oh so (and sew) easy!!! I'm seeing one in every color and pattern for the girls... oh the possibilities!!
