We celebrated our sweet Sam Sam this weekend, with a “party animal” birthday party! Suits him perfectly. :) And he had the BEST time! His face says it all. He was all smiles, was so aware and excited to see everyone, loved playing with his new presents and gave so many people so much love. With autism, it’s a really rough journey of ups and downs, and having “off” days are normal- but yesterday was nothing but GOOD, and he had the most “on” day possible! We had so many of our family pull us aside and tell us how much he’s grown and how much progress they can see in him! Makes my heart soar! Sam Sam, you’re one special boy.
Last week was full of “adulting.” Back-to-back therapy sessions, doctor appointments, parent teacher conferences, frustrating phone calls to insurance companies (don’t even get me started…), packages not being delivered because our address isn’t even in GPS yet… sigh. It’s been quite the week, lemme tell ya! But, we made it. We got through it. There were lots of small and big victories, and we ended in celebration of our favorite little 4 year old, sooooo…
Here’s to us! And to that! And cheers to a great week ahead. And PEACE OUT to the last one. ;)

Hey girl! Love the sunniesand went to purchase, but the link says “mirrored” which is what I want, but the model on the Nordstrom site looks like her eyes can be seen pretty well and they aren’t mirrored? In your pic I think there might be a glare on some parts so I can’t tell, SOS ;)
What a cute family! Love your photos and happy birthday to Sam!

oh my gosh – that picture with the 4 kids is classic! lol.
I’ve been eyeing that rebecca minkoff bag for ages but i can’t figure out the deal with the pockets, so i keep hesitating. some websites say that it has one exterior zipper pocket and one back slip pocket on the back side, while others say no exterior pockets. i prefer to have one exterior where i can stick my phone easily when my hands are full. any idea what the situation is with that front zipper flap region? do you think it would fit a phone? i know you have the bigger one but perhaps you can at least explain what is happening with that zipper on each side of the front flap – i assume it’s not all decoration?
thanks and happy birthday sam!
