Sam is really getting ready to move! She has been working so hard on learning to crawl, and we have been trying to help her as much as we can by putting her on her belly and placing some of her favorite things just out of her reach. Here are some pictures of her getting ready to go!
The first one is my favorite because she is making fish lips, which she just learned to do. I think it’s adorable.
In this last one, she had just sort of sat herself down. Yesterday was the first day I actually saw her go from laying down to a sitting position on her own. It makes things interesting, that’s for sure. She never wants to nap now! I used to lay her down and she’d eventually just go to sleep because what else was she going to do? But now she just sits herself right up in her crib and says, forget this, I’m going to play! Here she isn’t in her crib, she’s just on the floor, but she sat herself up to relax from all her practice crawling. We like this pic because she just looks so classic (and very happy with herself)!

Every time Sam realizes she can make a new sound, she sticks to it like glue until she finds a new one. Well, lately, she has latched on to this weird sound and facial expression that Mark and I call “Darth Sam”. She twists her mouth into a line and breathes really heavy. It is so funny, I can’t even describe it. She was playing with her toy and was concentrating so hard on it, that Darth Sam came out. I think Mark really captured her expression well in these photos.
Every day with her is so fun. She can be so funny, I am just glad that sometimes Mark is able to capture it for someone else to enjoy.

I really can’t get over how much fun Samantha has in the bath now. After SO MANY months of her hating every second of her baths, I swear, she could stay in the water forever. We are really glad about that because we were a little worried she wouldn’t like the pool this year. We joined last year when I was pregnant, and absolutely loved it, and were looking forward to taking little Sam this year to go wading in the baby pool.
She really loves being in the water now. I showed her how to smack the water yesterday in her bath and boy was that a mistake. She is at that age where she mimics things you do, and she started smacking the water a little more violently than I was. There was a lot of water everywhere, that’s for sure….
I am still bathing her most of the time in the sink since I haven’t quite figured out the best way to deal with rinsing her hair in the tub. She has a lot of hair, and a lot of shampoo has to come out, so using the sprayer in the sink is helpful.
Here are a few pictures from her last bath. She likes to play with her ducks, and apparantly decided to use one as a pacifier (strangely, since she hasn’t used a paci in about 4 months!)
