Sammy J...

Oh Sammy J...where do I even begin with this girl?! One minute I'm lovin' on her and we're having a great mother/daughter bonding moment, the next moment I'm giving her a time-out with her nose in the corner! I can't wait for the teenage years...said the mom in the most sarcastic tone!!


This was such a funny photo I took of her a few months ago...just her being so over dramatic...not at all like her mama... ;-)

So, about our Sammy girl...
-She's one of the toughest 8.5 year olds I know
-A few months ago she asked us how old she has to be to be able to base jump (cRaaaaaaaZy, I know)
-Can be the most tender big sister only when I'm not around...or so I've been told
-Is so determined to be the absolute best at everything she does
-Wants more than anything to be with her Dad at all times...she just adores him so much
-Is tough as nails on the outside, but sweet and tender when it counts
-Is obsessed, and even that's stating it mildly, with all things dogs...hence the reason we now have 2 dogs
-She is so very smart and really loves school
-Doesn't quite realize how much her little sister worships her
-Is such a great example to her bro and sis...in ALL the right ways
-And is so unbelievably responsible as in chores, duties and now even with babysitting

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!!
