That's the time that this beautiful, smart, sassy little four-year-old came out of my belly.  Well...she wasn't four then.  Duh! Samantha has been having a great birthday.  She got to celebrate at daycare with all of her friends.  They had cake and ice cream, they sang to her, and she got presents.  Then we picked her up for her home party, where we had pizza, cake & ice cream, presents, a treasure hunt and now it's movie time! 

 ^ Showing off the new number 4 ^

 ^ After she ate her pizza she was allowed to FINALLY open her presents ^

 ^ On the treasure hunt for the GOLDEN COINS.  After finding four golden coins, she got to open up her last present!! ^

^ Opening the last present of the night.  It was Toy Story 3 (you see it laying there on the floor).  She chucked it right out of the box without even looking at it, expecting something bigger and better in there.

Happy 4th Birthday Sami!!!

Stella in Kansas

These were taken Halloween weekend when me, Stella and Karina went to KS to visit my younger sister, Leah. Stella was so happy to finally meet her aunt/godmother, uncle/godfather Nick and grandma Angela (or Grang, as I like to call her). Was a quick and well worth it trip.  Wish we could have stayed longer, but glad we got to be there even for just a few days.
