Big Girl!!

We have started gradually giving Samantha "people food". If what we are eating is something she can eat, we cut it up small enough for her to eat. For lunch today, we went to Red Robin. We always get a burger there. We didn't think she was ready for a burger yet, so she got her very first kid's meal. She had a grilled cheese sandwich. She loved it!!!!!

Birthday Girl!!

Well, believe it or not, our little baby girl had her 1st birthday party on Saturday. Time has flown by so fast! It seems like just yesterday we brought her home from the hospital. It has been as lot of fun watching her grow, change, and develop over the year.
We hot her a horse that she can sit on and schooch across the floor.
We gave her a piece of cake. When we put it on her high chair tray, she wasn't sure what to do at first. Daddy put a taste of it in her mouth and then she "dug in". We enjoyed playing with it more than eating it. It was soooo cute. Here is a video and a couple of pictures.

Of course, once she was done making a mess by putting the frosting all over her face and in her hair, Marc took her upstairs and gave her a bath.By the end of the day, Samantha was exhausted! It didn't take her long to fall asleep.On Sunday Samantha had a chance to play with all of the awesome presents she got at her party.
