Autumn

| November 15, 2011

Our weather has been fairly crazy for a while now.  But this past weekend we decided to get out despite the cold.  We all just needed to get some fresh air.  Here are some cute pics of Sam just hanging out in the yard.

Crib Antics

| November 15, 2011

Sam still loves her crib, thank God. We really aren’t ready to let her sleep in a bed.  We like that she has to stay confined.  She would be up and running around at all hours otherwise.  Sadly, we have seen her put her foot up on the crib rail, which means she is very close to being able to climb out.  The only thing keeping her in is that she still sleeps in a sleep sack so she can’t lift her leg that high.  She can only do it when she is fully dressed and playing in her crib.

At any rate, she is in there and hopefully for a while longer.  She loves to play in her crib and asks to be put in all the time.  Here are some pictures Mark took recently of our crazy girl playing in her crib.

Sam always has a bunch of stuffed animals in there, but sometimes she likes us to throw *every* animal she has in with her.  We only do this for play, not while she is sleeping.  Her latest thing is that she likes to hide underneath all of them.  She lays down and we pile them all on top of her.  Sam finds this hysterical and we have to admit, she is pretty darn cute!  Sam is all about hiding now, whether it is under her toys, under a blanket, in a sleeping bag or just by hiding her face in your body somewhere.

Sam is wearing her new frog robe – I just love it!

There is a little arm sticking out somewhere…

Peek a boo (or as Sam says, Peekoo!)

Mark was playing with her the other day and decided to pile up her animals on her crib rail.  This was a huge effort to keep them from falling down, but Sam appreciated the effort!
