Big girl room

June 27, 2018

I promised to share pics of Samantha’s big girl room and I’m living up to my promise! They aren’t the best pics – but it is the BEST room!

This is what it looked like in the beginning…

Then we got those closets built out…

Now it’s all finished and might be the best room in the house! The nightstands and bookcase were in my room growing up! Perfect!

Egg Hunt 2

March 30, 2018

After our church egg hunt, we had another egg hunt that afternoon with our awesome neighborhood! The rain was threatening all day but it held out and we all had the best time! Look at this cute crew…

The big kids hunted eggs across the street in front of the school while the little kids stuck to one of our yards. I didn’t take any pics – was too busy having fun!

So thankful for our awesome neighborhood!

Big girl bed

March 14, 2018

As I mentioned last week, there have been some big changes for Samantha around here! After a looong construction process, we finally had Samantha’s “big girl” room to a place where she could move in! Even though we’ve been planning to move her for months, it happened quickly and I’m so glad I snapped these pictures 2 days before we moved her…

My sweet baby in her final days in her crib. Sniff sniff. I told my mom it was kind of sad to be packing up her crib after having one in my house for 7.5 years. She told me I could always have another! Yeah….I wasn’t quite THAT sad! ha!

Samantha is 3 years and 1 month and was more than ready for her big girl bed. She was so excited to be there and looks so cozy piled up in between all of those pillows…

She’s slept great. We’re working through leaving the hallway or bathroom light on, but overall I can’t complain at all. She sleeps all night, takes great naps, and absolutely loves her wonderful big girl room! I’m still waiting on a few things to come in and then will share all the pics!

Let it Snow!

December 12, 2017

After a full morning of snow fun, the kids took a little rest but then went straight back out that afternoon! Snowball fights, more snowmen, and the best time ever!

Look how deep the snow was!
