Sam & Amelia

I took the kids to Oklahoma a few weeks ago, while Robert was out of town. It was my first road trip alone with both kids and we did great! Sam fell asleep before lunch on the way there. He was having a sucker for a snack (a special treat) and just couldn’t stay awake to eat it. I tried taking it out of his hand two times and he woke up and caught me both times. He was NOT going to let go of that sucker, even if he was sleeping!

Just hanging out at Mimi’s house. Don’t know why Sam has his paci – he’s weaned except for nap and night time.

Sam getting ready to go play in the snow. We didn’t really pack for the cold weather, but Aunt Melissa found some snowboots in Sam’s size! He had to wear adult-size gloves, but didn’t seem to mind!

Amelia’s first snow! She stayed inside with Mimi after a quick trip outside to feel the snowflakes falling on us…..

while Aunt Melissa, Grandpa, Sam and I threw snowballs and built a snowman. Every time Sam would throw a snowball he’d say, “I broke’d it!!!” and laugh!

We died Easter eggs and it was messy! Sam loved it, but a dozen eggs was not nearly enough. He wanted to do more…

Just hanging out with Grandpa

and Great Aunt Linda and Uncle David.

Sam baked cookies with Aunt Melissa & Mimi,

ate pizza and went to the library.

Then we got to spend some time with Mommy’s best friend from high school, Katie, and her son, Kason. You did not want to leave her house that night. Cool slide in the backyard and yummy spaghetti, bread and brownies for dinner!

Little traveler! And now you’re in Batesville with GranGran and PaPa having more Easter fun!
