Smile!

March 18, 2024

Big day here last week…Samantha’s smile went from this…

to this!!

She got her expander out and braces off!! No more braces – for a few years at least – for this girl! She only had to wear them from September to March – not bad!

Crossover Ceremony

March 14, 2024

Two weeks ago Spencer and his Cub Scout troop had their crossover ceremony officially earning their Arrow of Light and becoming Boy Scouts! There was a good group of them that stuck it out and made it through Cub Scouts together. This group wasn’t quite as committed and connected as Maxwell’s group so it wasn’t quite as bittersweet. But, it’s still a great accomplishment and I’m so proud of Spencer and all of these boys!

I’m really just proud of this kid in general – he’s a smart, good kid and I’m so thankful he’s mine.

Glad to have most of these boys moving onto Boy Scouts together at Troop 63!

Checkup

March 13, 2024

Samantha had her 9 year old doctor checkup two weeks ago and she’s healthy and growing! Samantha is 4’3” (51 inches) and 61 lbs. She’s 27th % for height and 37th % for weight. Last year she was 49 inches and 56 lbs so she grew 2 inches and 5 lbs in a year. She’s strong and healthy!!

The boys at age 9 – Maxwell was 52 inches tall and 58 lbs and Spencer was 54 inches and 63 lbs.

No shots thankfully and she handled the finger prick MUCH better than last time! That deserves a pink drink for my girl dressed in all pink!

Always thankful for good doctor reports.

Daddy Daughter…again

March 12, 2024

We seem to be mostly back up and running – though no one can leave a comment (working on that) and I did lose last week’s posts. So, we’re going to recreate them this week!

Samantha and Robert went to the Dad Daughter dance and they looked about as good as anybody could!

Love this dimpled duo!

The party was Barbie themed and Robert said he got a dance or two in but Samantha mostly hit up the dance floor with her buddies.
