I can't even tell you how much I love these pictures of my girls.<br />

Not because they're good quality pictures (because they're not). But because of the way they love each other. Some days they fight and Anayah gets annoyed that Samara is taking all her dolls (which are really Samara's dolls to begin with) or Samara gets mad that she can't do all the things that Anayah does or they both just want desperately to do things on their own. But then there are moments like this that I know they love each other and will take care of each other and will eventually be the best of friends.<br />

All the hype of turning a year old and we hardly even documented the
day! I suppose that's what being a second child is all about? I wouldn't
know, I was an only child then a firstborn. I kinda feel it was all a
bit anticlimactic. Perhaps I built up this day in my head to
be SUCH.A.BIG.DEAL. when really it was just another day?! I wish I would
have taken a gazillion more pictures and I wish I could have spent the
day with her but I had to work (oh did I mention I went back to work
part time?). It's kind of sad really but we did document what we could
and she did get to spend the day with daddy and great grandma!<br />

Her most recent stats puts her at 21 lbs (72nd percentile!!) and 29 in
(69th percentile). Her most recent pictures all show you exactly why
that is! :) She's wearing mostly 9-12 month clothes with a few 18mo
pieces thrown in for the extra length. I even managed to squeeze her in
to her 0-3mo shorts for her party! Haha. It's funny because she only
weighs 2 lbs more than A did at her age but she's much taller which I
guess makes her seem SO much bigger by comparison.<br />

Samara Jade, you truly are a gem! You are so full of joy that it
overflows from you on to anyone you meet! It makes me so delighted to
see you interact with anyone and everyone who stops and comments on what
a happy baby you are. Even when you're not feeling well or cranky from
being tired you still mange to smile through it. I remember (while I was
still pregnant with you) all the concerns I had about the unknown.
About how you would fit into our family and how I would be able to give
you enough love and attention etc etc. But you, my sweet girl, have
filled a spot in my heart that I didn't know was there. I love you more
than I could ever have imagined and more than I thought possible. You
are a treasure, a gift to us that we don't deserve. I pray that you
would continue to be full of joy and laughter and radiate happiness
everywhere you go. I also pray that the Lord would just pour His
blessings on your life and surround you with His favor. Thank you for
being such a sweet girl. I look forward to all the adventures that are
in store. <br />

Her party. It was supposed to be perfect but of course things never turn out the way I plan. I should have learned my lesson the first time around but apparently I forgot. Anyway, here are a few pictures that I managed to capture while trying not to stress that her party didn't turn out the way I wanted it to. That said, HUGE thanks to Erika, Teresa & Victor, Clarissa (and anyone else that helped) for decorating and putting together the tables and candy/dessert bar while I ran over an hour late! (yes I'm still hanging my head in shame!!) <br />

It's hard to believe that this is the last (monthly) post before my baby is a year old! I keep saying it but it really is true. Time goes by way too quickly...especially after your first child. I don't think I've done an accurate job of documenting how much this little girl has grown but then I go back and look at her monthly posts and it's crazy to see her "grow up" in pictures. It's funny that the last few posts have only been about her monthly stats. It really goes to show that I don't have time to do any sort of projects or crafts or DIYs around here anymore. I'm lucky to sneak in a few minutes of blogging! This girl keeps me BIZ.EE.<br />

Right before Christmas Samara turned 10 months old. And ever since then she's been non-stop with the growing and milestones and learning. She's practically walking these days and has now upped her vocabulary to 3 words: "dada", "naya", and "nanas" (for any type of food). She's getting better with the signing but mostly just grunts or whines when she wants something. She has two bottom teeth and I just recently saw a top one trying to break through. She's wearing mostly 6-12 month clothing, depending on what it is, and is tipping the scales at just under 20lbs. She loves to terrorize Bruno and Anayah and laughs the whole time she's doing it. She is still the happiest baby, always smiling and laughing, even when she's sick or tired. Bedtime is usually 6:30 and she's been waking up around 7:00/7:15 these last few weeks. We have yet to take away her paci but I'm thinking that will happen very shortly. Here are a few pictures from my phone from the last month or so. I'll attempt to do her rug pictures later today:<br />

I think the last time I updated was right before Thanksgiving. Now it's past Christmas so here is probably my last post for this year! Nothing too crazy going on over here. Since we last checked in, Samara turned 10 months, Anayah performed in her first Christmas program at preschool, we all had the stomach flu, and the holidays came and went in the blink of an eye! Nothing new going on over here so I'll just show you what we've been up to for the last month or so:<br />

Day 3 of opening presents. She may not look too excited about this chair but this was the ONLY picture I could get because she wouldn't keep still from jumping for joy when she saw it! Thank you to great-Grandma S. who surprised her with it. The pictures on the left are the pictures she took with my phone of her dolls sitting in the chair. Haha they had a photo shoot apparently :)<br />

These last two months have flown by even faster than before! Since we've gotten back from vacation, I've been busy with weddings and holiday photo sessions, my grandma was here visiting, we got a puppy (!), and the girls are just growing like weeds! I realized I never posted Samara's 8 month pictures so here is 8 & 9 together. She's reached quite a few milestones in the last two months and before you know it she will be ONE!! Geez, time moves too fast! Anyway, here are her 8 month pictures first:<br />

In the last two months she has finally gotten her first tooth! And another one is very close behind. She's also mastered crawling and has taken to pulling herself up and cruising along the furniture. She will also stand by herself for quite some time if you put her there. I'm pretty sure she will be walking within the next few months, probably sooner than A did, and most definitely before her first birthday! She continues to sleep through the night, going down around 6:30 and wakes up between 6:30-7:00 the next morning. Most days she naps at 9, 1 and 3:30 but recently has been dropping her last nap. This girl can eat (just like her sister did) and loves being able to feed herself. We're not sure exactly how much she weighs but around 17lbs is what we're thinking. She's small like A was but definitely longer...she can fit in 6mo pants but they're too short on her. These 9mo pictures are all from my phone...apparently I haven't used my camera on them in a while :/<br />

She's still the happiest baby I've known, always smiling, even when she's cranky. Lately she's been giving us some 'tude which I'm sure she's learning from her sis, but hopefully she stays mellow, because I don't know if I can handle TWO divas! Hahaha. Samara, you continue to be a constant source of joy in our lives. You really do light up a room and make someone happy just by looking at you. I can't imagine what life was like without you.

Well, life has sure been busy lately. I feel like ever since the time change there aren't enough hours in the day anymore! The girls now get up at an awful hour of the morning (yes, 6am is too early!) and are ready to go once they're awake. We've been keeping busy with our new puppy, Bruno, who I might add is very energetic...it really is like having another child around the house. The girls love him and B is thrilled we finally have a Boston. Me, well, I'm not quite as enamored as the rest of the family, but I'll keep him around ;)<br />

Right before Halloween we hit up our local pumpkin patch for our annual dose of pumpkin fun. It was Samara's first patch and she was thrilled to play with the pumpkins. Anayah loved all the slides and rides and even the swing!<br />

For Halloween at Anayah's school, everyone dressed up as cowboys/girls. She loved her outfit and was so excited to get to school that morning! That evening we hung out with our good friends the <a href="http://thevonrosenfamily.blogspot.com/" target="_blank">Von Rosens</a> and Anayah and Jack got to dress up and go trick-or-treating together. They were so cute dressed as Jake and Izzy from Jake and the Neverland Pirates (Disney Jr. for those who don't know). Samara wore the infamous bee costume and looked so cute! <br />

I can't believe it's a week before Thanksgiving and I've yet to take any pictures of the family on my camera this month! I've been super busy with holiday photo sessions and working on my new <a href="http://mandispottsville.com/" target="_blank">website</a> that I only have my phone pics to document the last few weeks. On top of all of that I've been starting to plan for Samara's first birthday! I know it will be here before we know it. Whew! On that note, I'm off to get some work done while A is in school and S is napping! Until next time...<br />

We were actually on vacation when this one turned seven months so I don't actually have her "rug" picture this time, but here are a few of her on a towel. On the beach. Ha. Tough life right?!<br />

She so needs a tan haha. She's loving her little snacks and being able to feed herself. She's also been scooting around a ton more and is almost fully crawling on all fours! She's now growing at a rapid pace and I still have yet to start her party planning!! Slow down, little girl.<br />

Every now and then I think it's important to spend one-on-one time with each of the girls. Last night we made a very spontaneous trip to Disneyland for a couple hours. It was good to get out of the house, spend time with friends, and more importantly spend time alone (without daddy or sister) with my favorite toddler (or is it preschooler now?)</div>

Because it was soooo hot and humid it really wasn't very crowded and we got right on most of the rides in CA. I think the longest we waited was about 10 minutes. We were able to get on quite a few and managed to head out by 7pm so she was home in time to get to bed at a decent hour. My favorite pictures of the night</div>

I'm seriously like a broken record. I won't even say it this time. Enjoy the pictures! It's 5 AND 6 months. Gah, total failure!<br />
<br />
These 5 month pictures are all from my phone. Apparently I didn't take ANY with my camera :( <br />

At her most recent dr. visit she weighed in at 13.2lbs and measured 25in. which puts her in the 5th percentile for weight, 18th for height, and 8th percentile for her height/weight combination. Her dr. asked if I was feeding her enough and if she seemed cranky or not like herself. Ha! No, doc, my child is as happy as can be and if you saw her eat you wouldn't be so concerned. This girl can eat! She's like her daddy and sister...they eat a ton and have a very fast metabolism. So thankful they got his genes in that department ;)<br />
<br />
In the last two months she has started sleeping through the night consistently! She goes to bed around 6:30 and wakes anywhere between 6:00-6:30. She is a much better napper than her sister was and will take 2-3 naps a day, anywhere from 45min - 2hrs! She continues to be a very happy baby and everyone who meets her is so surprised at how calm and content she is. Until you take her food away though. Now that's a different story! I don't think her hair is going to fall out like Anayah's did. It just keeps growing and getting curlier by the day. I think they'll have different types of curls though. The time continues to fly by and I haven't quite started planning her first birthday, but I need to get on that very soon! For now I'll just continue to cherish her baby-ness...since I know it will soon be gone. <br />

(Anxious for her "party" to start)</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
This year (like last) we just had a few of her friends over for lunch and some cake. Well that was the intention anyway. Somehow it morphed into a custom cake (which was amazing btw), cupcakes, goodie bags, AND decorations! What the what?! <br />

Haha it sounds more elaborate than it really was but it still crossed
over the line of "get together" into "party." Although according to B it
isn't a party if there's no jumper! Ugh, maybe next year we'll stick to
the "a party only every 5 years" rule!<br />

All in all she had a great time. The meltdown at the end of the night proved it...she was over tired, over stimulated, and over sugared! Man, I'm exhausted all over again. Ha!

Seriously she is the happiest baby I've ever known!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<br />
Her stats for this month:<br />
<br />
- Weighs a whopping 11lbs and some change. She's actually in the 9th percentile for her weight...the dr. was a tad bit concerned but she's just tiny like her sister was!<br />
<br />
- Is in the 34th percentile for her height...24 inches!! Whoot whoot<br />
<br />
- Still wearing anything from 0-3 months<br />
<br />
- Recently discovered her feet along with her fists so there's double the drool all over her!<br />
<br />
- Has been "talking" more. And laughing of course.<br />
<br />
- Started trying to roll over but then realized it was too much work<br />
<br />
- Tries to reach her toes so it looks like she's always doing crunches<br />
<br />
- Loves watching her sister do anything<br />
<br />
- Will give "kisses" if you ask often enough :) <br />
<br />

Samara Jade, you are beautiful inside and out and I can't help but feel blessed everytime I look at you. You light up the room with your smile and have an infectious laugh. You truly are a happy baby and I hope that never changes. Thank you for bringing so much joy into our lives.

This monthly milestone crept up on me and before I knew it, the day had passed and I hadn't done your pictures (or blog post obviously!). I remembered that evening after you had gone to bed that I needed to do those things and wouldn't you know it, a few days passed before I finally got a chance. Clearly life is moving too quickly and before we know it you'll be walking and talking and keeping up with your sister! </div>

Baby girl, you are SUCH a happy baby! You are always laughing and smiling and "talking" to us and when we talk back, you're right back to laughing again. You recently discovered that your fist fits into your mouth and we laugh because it seems that the only time you suck on your hand is (obviously) when you're hungry, but it's almost as if you're giving me a "look" saying, "Fine, if you won't feed me, I'll just eat this!" It's quite hilarious though. See what I mean?<br />

Haha! Stats for this month:<br />
- I'm assuming you're weighing in around 10-11lbs these days, but not sure since your last appointment was shots only.<br />
<br />
- You have officially outgrown your newborn sleepers...you're just too long for them! You're now in 0-3mo pajamas which is great for the length but they swallow you up everywhere else.<br />
<br />
- You can still wear your other newborn clothing as long as there's no feet.<br />
<br />
- You're still a great eater and nurse about 5-6 times during the day.<br />
<br />
- You've been sleeping through the night for about a month now and we just started to transition you from your bassinet to your pack and play (still in our room) for naps/sleep.<br />
<br />
- I'm still anxious to see if your hair will fall out like your sister's did and grow back curly, but for now it's just wavy.<br />

The last time I remember going to Disneyland was when Brian and I first started dating in 2005. Before that, I honestly don't know. I knew I wanted to take Anayah there eventually because she, like most kids, loves all the Disney shows and is enamored with all things Minnie Mouse or Daisy Duck! I also knew that with the price of tickets these days I wanted to take her while she was still free. Call me cheap but a trip there for just me and Bri is equivalent to a car payment! Add a ticket for her and we'd need to take out a loan hehe. So we kept putting it off and saying we'd save more and take her soon. Well "soon" never came then I was pregnant then had the baby and there just never seemed to be a good time. So when a situation came my way which would allow us to get in free, you better believe I jumped on that! Despite it being a Saturday and a somewhat busy time of the year, we decided to just do it.<br />

After a long day and only 5 rides (all at California Adventure, mind you) we headed home...I think I enjoyed California Adventure a lot more than the main park.
The Disney Jr. show and Crush the Turtle were awesome and I'm so glad we
were able to catch them. I'd love to go back when it's less crowded (is
that even possible) and check out Disneyland again though. <br />

All in all it was a good day. It was definitely crowded and definitely hot, but it was worth it knowing our little girl was having a great time! Next time though, if there is ever a next time, I wanna go during the winter. On a weekday. <br />

It's been a few months since we last met up with our friends the <a href="http://mccraytimes.blogspot.com/" target="_blank">McCrays</a> and <a href="http://www.sotofam.com/" target="_blank">Sotos</a>. Life's been busy and coordinating schedules between the three of us and our eight kids is sometimes tricky. Luckily we were all able to get together at Carrie's last week for a fun, and slighty chaotic, day! You can see more pics of our day and read Carrie's version of events <a href="http://mccraytimes.blogspot.com/2013/04/how-to-tame-8-kids-under-6-years-old.html" target="_blank">here</a>. I'll just show you what we were up to and let you imagine for yourself what it was like!<br />

Thanks girls for a fun day!!

This year we combined our April celebrations since they're so close together plus the whole "having a new baby and can't go out for more than a couple hours plus we're too tired anyway" situation.<br />
<br />
Our anniversary was on the 5th...5 years this year. Again with the time flying analogy. I know, I know. I need new material. Anyway, Brian ended up having to go back to work that Friday so it was kind of a bittersweet day. I ended up taking my first solo trip with the girls and met up with Mandy and Jack at Chuck E Cheese's. It was actually quite a successful trip as Samara slept the entire time in the carrier so I just had to chase after Anayah. She and Jack kept each other company though so really I just walked around and carried tokens and tickets.<br />

The drive home however was a different story! We stayed longer than I had intended due to said great behavior. The problem with that was it was too close to A's nap time and it was past S's feeding time. That pretty much equaled chaos in the car on the way home. Both of them screaming crying the whole way. I thought<span class="Apple-style-span" style="-webkit-composition-fill-color: rgba(175, 192, 227, 0.230469); -webkit-composition-frame-color: rgba(77, 128, 180, 0.230469); -webkit-tap-highlight-color: rgba(26, 26, 26, 0.292969);"> I might get lucky and they'd sleep but they had other plans in mind.

Perhaps next year will be a bigger celebration since we won't just have had a baby. Or maybe I'll just start planning now for my 40th! Hehe.</span><br />
