thinking happy thoughts

nothing like a full weekend of fun at home, with no real plans and a husband and daughter who were glad to just be together. new house projects, fun outside, bike rides and afternoon naps....it was just simple and easy and relaxing. took lots of pictures throughout our playing even though when i get up to get my camera or a drink or you know to use the bathroom sammy promptly says sit down, play mommy all spaced out and in her sweet baby voice. how can i resist. who needs to pee anyway. hehehe.
here are our top favorites from the past few days....4. her big efforts in the past few weeks with the first stages of potty training. wearing her big girl panties and running to her musical potty. thanks to her mimi for her big time potty support! but let me emphasize FIRST stages...hehehe. let me not forget the little pee pee puddles on our tile floor and her sometimes disintrest too. no rush...we'll get there. 3. new little people airplane and her continued love for her PEOPLe 2. her initiating kisses and hugs for no reason, just comes over her and man do i love that 1. her love for using her special washcloth at meals to wash her hands and face and be a neat girl. so funny to watch. so here are the pics....our little everyday moments at home....

early morning holding all of her crib friends while i changed the sheets

playing dress up

loving her princess ball

yeah make no mention of our terrible looking dead lawn. ready for new sod soon!



she has to call him colebaby now...she loves to try and put his leash on and holds it when we're on walks...his patience is tremendous these days...

the three of us doing yard work...

took off her changing table top and turned it into a big-girl dresser.....diaper changes are short and sweet on her changing pad on the floor and then she can quick stand up and help get dressed....nothing like olympic wrestling on the changing table to make you want to scream!



notice her panties as a hat...oh well

last night's babydoll playtime....
