New Bows!!

On Wednesday Me, Sami and Gigi (Grandma Terri) took a trip to Pink Hippo. Wow, what a store that is. We had so much fun there...maybe a little too much fun. Sami has beautiful bows now. Here are a few pictures of her.

Go Hawks!

Sami went to her first Iowa game today. As Grandma Terri put it, "Samantha is the youngest Iowa fan, but the prettiest!" And that is so true. Nick and I probably get the award for bad parents because we took Sami to Pal Joey's for her first Iowa game. Yes, we had a baby in a bar, but we didn't stay long because it was so loud in there. I felt horrible for Sami, but amazingly enough she slept through all the noise. She woke up a little bit before half time and we decided that it was time to go!

P.S. You can probably tell from these photos, but Sami is gaining weight just fine these days!

Samantha's Room

So I know I should have posted these pictures a long time ago, but I've been slacking on the blog page. Here are some photos of Sami's room. We went with the pink giraffe theme. The first picture is the "before" picture and the rest are the "after" photos. And by "after," I mean that Aunt Traci came over and spiced up the walls. She is so good at doing that. I don't know what I would do without her decorating and painting skills. And I can't forget to mention Lucy, who is the five and a half foot stuffed giraffe that is in Sami's room.
