Paper Doll

Lately, Samantha has been wanting to pick out her own clothes. Saturday, before the circus, she went through her closet and tried on all different outfits, jackets, dresses.... This is her thing now and she is so happy doing it. I always said that I would let my kid wear whatever they wanted to be independent and be themselves, and the outfits Sam comes up with are just plain loveable! I love how she lays them out on the floor too.... and she rocks them!

This morning we had a play date with Ms. Michelle and Ella (and Baby Lyla, too). The girls have so much fun together and Sam picks up on all different things, like being a princess and wanting to get married x.x But some times she needs that girly spark.

What a busy day! This evening we went to Samantha's Mother's Day Out school for open house and "meet" her new teacher, who she was with for early drop-off last 'semester'. 
Can you guess what the first thing she did when we walked into chapel besides greet the teachers?
Jump up on stage! Ms. Alyson said that she was ready to be in a program. Whoa! This year is going to be interesting!
