Thumbs up!

She's so close!!

And if I try helping, she screams.

My Clingy Family

'Manda got stuck.

To the rug.

Mom had to cut her loose!

Sam was freaked out when she realized she was related to them.

Sam I Am

We have not been able to get Samantha to take a pacifier (or at least one other than Jer's finger)
We did not want a binky baby, but with all the screaming and constant rooting, I'd be thrilled if she took a binky. The past couple of days I've been putting her on my chest, face down and she snorts like a little piggy and burries her head in my chest. We joke that she's looking for a truffle.

Today, after an hour of screaming non-stop, I decided to try the pacifier yet again:

(Say! I DO like green eggs and ham!)

now, if only we could find these...they seem to have disappeared during the move.

Innie or Outie?

looks like a swirly to me!

First 4th of July!

Ok, so we (Sam and Me) are not doing anything, but Daddy is. Although, to think of it, she did have her own explosion. In her pants. That ended up on my pants.
FYI, baby poop stains.

*Sigh*

Up from 3am-5am with a very gassy baby.
Up at 7 again, screaming off and on til 10.
Squirmed and sweated and screamed and tooted til 12pm (not me, the baby)
FINALLY pooped and crashed at 1pm (again, the baby)

so long, chocolate, my sweet love...(this time, for me)

Samantha will let me put her down and be happy (or content) if one of two things is happening:

1) She's in the kitchen with me and I'm cooking/cleaning
2) She's in the bedroom with me and I'm folding clothes.

Can we say future homemaker?

the feet- always going somewhere

I love the kitchen!

all the sounds and shiny things

but really, it's serious work
