Last week was very busy for us--we had Sam's 5 month birthday, our 3 year wedding anniversary and a big first for me--the first night away from Samantha. On Saturday night I had to spend the evening in Monterey to prepare for an event on Sunday. I'm happy to report that I survived, however, it was really tough to be away from the little lady. I don't think she was fazed at all--she and Allen had a great time together and they even made it out to celebrate her friend Bradley's first birthday!
Since our anniversary fell on a Tuesday, we're looking forward to celebrating with a date night very soon!
Sam is doing great! She had a touch of a stomach virus last week, so that was no fun. The doctor said that we needed to let it run it's course, but it was pretty rough, as she developed quite a diaper rash. All in all, she's sleeping well and is on a pretty good schedule with her naps. She has been doing better with her rice cereal and we're thinking about starting her on something new pretty soon. She is rolling over like a champ and is putting everything in her mouth these days. At this point, she is really close to rolling from back to tummy--in fact I think the only thing that stops her is rolling on to her arm and getting stuck! Samantha, JoAnn and I ventured out to Valley Fair last Friday to buy a birthday present, and Sam couldn't stand to miss out on all the action. She was pretty fussy in her stroller, so I put her into the sling and she was a happy camper. The sling is pretty much my favorite invention ever (at least this week)!
And of course, the pictures!
Hanging out with Kermit The Frog....
Finally a smile!
Scout can't handle it if she's not a part of the action!
And finally one of all our "kids"...yes, Peter is wearing his hooded sweatshirt. This colder weather is a bit much for our poor, hairless wonderdog
We're getting really excited about Samantha's first Thanksgiving!
