Samantha is ONE!

It's hard to believe that my little girl is already one! She has grown up so fast and she changing by the day. For Samantha's birthday we thought that we would have a birthday/Baby naming for her, yes we slacked on her baby naming. Since we finally decided to do a baby naming for her we needed to start looking for her Hebrew name. Tyler had a great name in mind, he wanted her Hebrew name to be Bunny and was very upset that we didn't go with it. We told him that name was taken and he says well how about Bunny2. We came up with a list of great names and decided on Navah which means beautiful and of course Samantha is beautiful so it fit perfectly!

4 years old

My sweet little boy is 4! Where did the time go? It seems like yesterday I was at the hospital with him. Tyler has grown up to be such a kind, loving, smart and wonderful boy! He loves to learn and he is just a sponge, he remembers everything! Happy Birthday Tyler!!!!!

On Saturday we had Tyler's birthday Party and it was the best party he had ever had. Of course it was a spiderman party. I made another spiderman cake but this time he also wanted a black spiderman so I made both. The kids started out coloring and then Spiderman knocked at the door!!! Tyler was so excited to have spiderman at his party. Then we played games. We played web walk, I numbered webs and put them on the floor and then had music going and when the music stopped Spiderman picked a number and who ever was on that number won, then we played pin the spidey on a bad guy and then we had my favorite web the bad guys, I made posters of villains and posted them up in the basement and then gave each kid their own can of silly string to spray at the bad guys. Then we had cake and opened presents. It was such a great party :)

Playing Together

Samantha loves playing with big brother. Tyler is so gentle with her and anytime he talks to her she just lights up! It melts my heart to see them playing so nice with eachother.

4 years ago I was very, very huge(gained 65 pounds) and way past my due date! I couldn't sleep because my doctor finally told me that we can take Tyler out(10 days past my due date)! I was so excited I was going to meet this precious little boy.....

Trip to Disneyworld

We started our trip in Jacksonville, Florida for Neena Jo's 90th birthday. Donna, Samantha and I flew out early so Neena Jo could get some extra time with her newest granddaughter. Samantha loved riding on the scooter with Neens Jo.

Sunday was the big party, there were so many people there! Neena Jo has a big family and a lot of friends that wanted to share this special day with her. She was a little overwhelmed but she loved it! I just hope when I'm 90 that I am that with it like Neena Jo!

After the party we all headed to Orlando to start our Disneyworld trip. Tyler was so excited and couldn't wait to get to the parks. The Highlight of our trip was meeting Spiderman at Universal Studios. We went on the Spiderman ride and then waited in line to meet spiderman. He was so nice!!! He spent so much time with Tyler. Tyler walked up to him hugging a stuffed spiderman and wearing a spiderman shirt. Spiderman talked to him and then signed his shirt. He then helped Tyler with the proper web shooter hand and then took pictures. We ended up buying the big poster of Tyler and Spiderman because it was so cute and Tyler does have a spiderman room. He then got his face painted like spiderman.

Tyler loved all the rides and Tyler was just tall enough to go on most of the rides. We picked a great time of year to go, it wasn't packed. And we also had Kade with us and he moved us to the front of the lines, thanks Kade! We took Tyler on Tower of Terror and he was so funny, he said mommy that was fun but my tummy got scared! I was so scared for him on that ride but he did great! It was such a great trip!
