Sammie has been having lots of summer adventures. Trips to see her grandparents, playing in her little pool in our backyard & helping us pack for the big move! We went to Mystic a couple of weeks ago & Sammie was sporting grandpa's angelride bandana!




This is at home during dinner time. Sammie loves food of all kinds - everything but broccoli! She's had ribs, chicken, pork, steak, hamburger, pulled pork, squash, spinach, zucchini, broccoli raab, mushrooms, peppers... & of course ALL the fruits! She loves table food & likes to feed herself.


Ut-oh Mom, I dropped it.

Taking a little snooze on mommy after a long day at daycare.

Saturday amidst all the packing, we got Sammie's pool out for some afternoon fun. She loves her little pool, it is just her size. I started out with her usually, little cut up portions of strawberry, but apparently that just wasn't enough fun... so she reached out of the pool into the whole container of strawberries & picked out the perfect one for herself. I didn't really think she would get very far with it, since she still doesn't have any teeth, but apparently where there's a will there's a way. She managed to gum right through the strawberry - talking to it during the process. It was adorable!

mmmm... Strawberry face

BIG bite!

My happy girl in the pool :)
