Y’all, Samantha is FANCY! I’m sure you’ve noticed the beads in every photo lately and I could not love it more! We got some mardi gras beads at the street party and she latched onto them and won’t go anywhere without being fully accessorized!


She gets up in the morning and the first thing she does is point that little finger to her beads to get them on!

She wears them to breakfast…

She wears them to play…

She even wears them with her PJs. She is FANCY.


Sometimes the beads go on even when the clothes don’t! ha!


I just love this girly girl.

Here’s to lots more jewelry fun in the future with my baby girl!!


Have a FANCY day!
The kids have had adventures right and left the past few weeks! Now that Samantha is starting to drop her morning nap, she gets to go and do all around town! She’s loved story time at the library…


and has even gotten to go to Moe’s!

Of course, all those adventures wear a girl out.

Susan also took Spencer and Samantha to the Bud’s Best cookie factory for a tour! Spencer and Maxwell have been before but this was baby’s first time. I think they all enjoyed the cookies…can’t say the same for the hair nets! 🙂




Batter up! Maxwell and Spencer got to go to a Barons game with Robert! Like last year, his company had a box and they thoroughly enjoyed the game…and all the free bags of cookies!!



Finally, last week all three got to go to Tigers for Tomorrow with Susan which is incredible – and really unbelievable that it is so close to us and we didn’t know about it! No pictures are allowed around the animals but they all got to see tigers, lions, bears, wolves and tons of other animals up close and personal! They LOVED it! They all came home with new animals to play with and tired eyes…


It’s just been adventure after adventure around here!
Samantha went in for her 15 month checkup yesterday and she looks great! Fun in the waiting room…

and then not as much fun after having to get weighed and measured. She didn’t like being handed over to Nurse Shelly!

She looks fantastic overall. She’s a big girl – 26 lbs, 5 oz and 31 1/4 inches tall! That’s 75th-95th% on both and Dr. Walley said she’s really at about 90th% on weight! wow! She’s a strong, healthy baby girl!! She’s grown 2 inches and 4 lbs since her 12 month appointment. I think that’s because she’s such a good eater! 🙂
For comparison, at 15 months, Spencer was 25 lbs, 11 oz (90th %) and 32 inches tall (95th-98th %).
Maxwell was 23 lbs, 31 inches tall at 15 months.
A few pounds difference between them all but very close and all within an inch of each other. We’ll see where they all end up as they grow.
Samantha is meeting all her milestones in terms of talking, walking and other motor skills. Phew! She was nice to Dr. Walley and let him check her out. She did have to get 2 shots though which she felt like this about it…death stare.

Poor baby. All the fun wore her out and she fell asleep on the ride home…

My sweet, big, growing, healthy and happy baby girl. Always thankful for good doctor reports!
More pictures from the backyard today…plenty of silly ones!
They were waiting for Spencer and Samantha’s face cracks me up…

Attempting a group shot…unsuccessfully…



Spencer loooves taking pictures.

But they do make each other laugh!

Moving on to the individual outtakes…






Funny, happy kiddos!
