Yes, I'm wearing pants and a dress too! I am really into dressing myself these days...

I love the aquarium!

who are we?

Samantha's good buddie Cyrus...

"water play"

I couldn't resist sharing this. Playing in the water is one of Samantha's favorite things to do... so, we've been making more trips to the swimming pool :-).
Here's s a cool water usage calculator if you're interested!

fun in the sand at golden gardens beach!

fun with shelling peas, not so much eating the pod...

I made green gloves Mom!

typical seattle days...

brushing buddie and jackson - they're in heaven

Out with our awesome friends Sandy, Juan and toddling Alex!

Doing the twist

Samantha discovered that if she twirled around the kite string would let out and the kite would go higher...not to mention how much fun one has when twirling.

Flying kites on "Kite Hill"

Samantha has been fascinated with kites for quite awhile now and finally we got her one (Trish actually). Here she is on "Kite Hill" flying her kite.

Climbing

One of Samantha's favorite things to do is climb. With a little help from Mom she is climbing trees.

Show her once and she's off on her own...searching and searching...though Doc and Lighting McQueen were never far from her side.

Looking for Fossils

We stopped to look for fossils...and found some interesting rocks.

Winter walks

It was a reasonably sunny weekend so we wandered down to the lake.

First Post

Hey All,

I hope to use this blog as a quick and easy way of posting about Samantha and her progress in life. Web pages are just so static and blogs are so dynamic since I read them all the time I thought it high time I began one.
