2 Month Check Up AND SHOTS

Before shots
(she was smiling and cooing, but the nurse was getting the first needle ready so I plugged Stella immediately...thinking it would calm ME down).

After shots.
Stella now weighs 9 lbs 14 oz and is 21 3/4 inches long, which is a bit short for 2 months.

Miss Match

Last night we (Joe) didn't feel like cooking, so we (I) ordered pizza for supper and Sami and I went to pick it up. It wasn't until we got to Dominos when I realized Sami was wearing two different shoes. I asked her why she was wearing two different shoes and she had a very logical answer: "Because I put this one on but I couldn't find the other one, so I put my sparkly pink one on." Logical, if you don't take into account the fact that the matching shoe was right where it was supposed to be.

Lawn Mower Repairs

Joe went out to mow before supper tonight and the mower was inspired by the Indian and didn't start. So Sami helped Joe work on the mower and together they got it running again!

Sorry

I haven't posted anything in a while. Sorry. I have been meaning to update the blog in the past few days but I cannot, for the life of me, find my stinkin' USB cord for my camera. Sure, I have a dozen USB cords laying around the house, but of course, my little Samsung camera has a unique innie (technical term for I don't know what I'm talking about), so not just any USB cord will work. I have flipped my house upside down trying to find it, with no luck. Mom, I know what your thinking and all I have to say to that is: shhhh.

I do have pics from my other camera that I will post when I have a better attention span and perhaps more energy. Happy Labor Day.

Love This Life

Last night Joe and I were sitting on the couch (which is covered in folded laundry that needs to be put away) along with Stella and Sami. I was trying to calm Stella without walking around the house with her, and Joe was trying to look at something on the computer as Sami attempted to shove a necklace into his ear. Joe and I chuckled because this is our life. And we LOVE it!

Happy 4-week birthday, Stella!

First time at the movie theatre!

On Sunday, Joe and I took Sami to her first movie at a movie theatre. We took her to Shrek at the cheap seats. She kept asking when the movie was going to start (as the advertisements were playing before the previews even started), then she finally couldn't take it anymore and she said "Where's the remote?!" She made it through the entire movie, but 1/3 of the way into it she started to get antsy. I'm glad we decided to go to the cheap seats (even though we made the mistake of buying soda, popcorn and candy there so it was like we went to a normal evening show), and we'll definitely take her to see Toy Story 3 when it gets to the cheap seats, but we'll be smarter and smuggle our snacks in instead of handing over our life savings for them at the theatre.
