THREE!

January 29, 2018

Samantha is a THREE year old! As she will clearly tell you, she is not a baby. She is a big girl! The sweetest, most precious, precocious, friendly big girl! She keeps us on our toes, makes us laugh, and also makes us want to pull our hair out. 😉 Oh, I love her so.

From this precious baby girl (born on her due date at 1:04pm)…

Oh, how boring our lives would be without this ray of sunshine! She loves her baby dolls, her brothers (though she clearly knows her power and will refuse their hugs just to make them mad! ha!), her momma (clear favorite here! it’s wonderful and exhausting), her Baa-Baa, her bed, and mermaids! She’s a great sleeper, a good eater, and a happy kid. She loves going to school to play with her buddies but I think her favorite days are dance and gymnastics days! She’s athletic and coordinated and has no problem keeping up with her big brothers. We still call her Toots, or Tootie, or Baby, or Squishy…or Samantha. She says breakiful for breakable and pooter for computer. She’s flat out ADORABLE.

This one has an opinion! Oh yes! She is strong-willed but also sugar sweet. Personality coming out of her ears! Life is going to be an adventure with this one.

Spencer’s party!

October 23, 2017

Happy Monday! So, last week it just worked out that we were able to have Spencer’s birthday party on his actual birthday! FUN! Maxwell got out of school at noon that day so we had the party at 1:30 right after pre-school got out and everyone could join! Spencer has been saying for months that he wanted to have his party at Surge so that is exactly what we did! A sports themed party at Surge to celebrate one awesome FIVE year old!

Surge was so great – we had a huge party room and lots and lots of space to jump! While we had cupcakes for his friends…

Spencer also requested a cake to blow out candles! He wanted a soccer ball and I thought it turned out super cute…

These three monkeys were ready to PARTY!

We ended up having the entire place to ourselves which was SO nice!! The kids jumped and climbed and bounced and tackled and had a ball!

I thought Spencer was going to do the trapeze but…nope! ha!

He did spend just about the whole party with his main bud, Sebastian! and Samantha was always right there in the middle of it all!  🙂

Maxwell did the climbing wall and got all the way to the top!

Samantha thought she wanted to do it too. I have to give it to the guy working there – he did his best to get that harness on her but she just wasn’t quite big enough! ha!

After lots of jumping, it was cake time!!

He had a fantastic day at school and even got 5 birthday spankings from Mrs. Beard. 🙂 Nothing better than a school birthday crown…

We actually had Spencer’s birthday party right after school and it was AWESOME! Lots of pictures from that to come. That night, we had pizza (Spencer’s request. Specifically, “Not the pizza you go pick up but the kind that the Domino’s truck brings to your house!” ha!) We then had more cake and opened lots of fun presents! Luckily we had our two favorites in town to celebrate with us!

I think Spencer had a great day!! Also have to share the awesome things Maxwell made for Spence…this sign…
