Sam's Valentines

A little overdue, but I wanted to share the super cute Valentines that Sam and I made.  Tons of fun.  I printed a bunch of fishbowls off the internet, Sammy painted each one, I wrote our message, Sam (with a little help) signed each card and dropped some fish candies into the bag along with the card.  SOOO CUTE!

This one was special for Sam's 'teachers' that he loves so much!

Creepy Crawly Birthday Party

Sam got invited to a very special birthday party this weekend.  It was the first birthday party that Sam has gone to of his own friend and not one he got through me or Shaun.  Very exciting.  This was a party of one of Sam's friends from daycare.  It was the perfect little boy party!  The theme was creepy crawly and it was amazing!

The kids waiting patiently for the reptile lady to share her lizards and such with them.  They were soooo excited but so quiet (at least at first)!

The birthday boy, Caedon, gets a 'snake bracelet'.  

Sam gently touches the snake... he was so proud of himself!

Everyone not to sure about this muddy turtle.

Sammy loving the idea that the kids are holding this BIG snake.

However, he's not so sure once it was his turn!

I believe this guy is called a tegu.  Look at Sam's little lizard tongue!

Super friendly animal, letting all these little fingers touch him.   The kids LOVED this one!

Sammy got a tegu kiss!

Coolest. Cake. Ever. 

First time at the pinata.  He did great.  Oh and by the way, Shaun was the hero that broke it!!!  You'd think the kids would be upset that he broke it and not them, but they were soooo happy with the flurry of candies that fell they didn't even realize.  

Sam and the birthday boy!

It really was a fun fun fun party.  Just a little glimpse of how special the people are that are in Sam's everyday life.  We loved the party and love this family!  Perfect thanksgiving weekend fun!
