Sami has been tagged!

Lot's of tagging going on out there. So Sami's tag is 6 random things about herself. Well, let me tell you, Sami is pretty random. Tonight we went upstairs to go to bed and she was standing in front of our full length mirror. She was looking over her shoulder at herself, saying how handsome her back (which probably means her butt!) looks. I think she got that from Aaron. Ok moving on!
1. She has two fiancees. Or boyfriends, or boy toys. Which ever you want to call them. She has two little friends in her preschool class that she is always talking about. Their names are Easton and Jackson. She told the babysitter the other day that Easton was going to help put a baby in her tummy! Woah I know. So that would be an explanation gone awry from Aaron. I've told him to be more careful in the future. So there's all sorts of marriage talk and such, but Sami hasn't picked who she wants for sure yet. Really there's no hurry.




2. Sami loves to learn! She has a few little workbooks that she always wants to do. She especially loves it when Aaron does them with her. She loves going to her preschool, though she's missed a lot for illnesses this year. She loves to learn new songs, and to look at shapes and letters.

3. Sami is such a little mommy. She always wants to help with Beckham, and is always pretending her stuffed animals are babies. She loves to feed them, put diapers on them, and puts them to sleep all around the house. Then she tells everyone to be quiet because the baby is sleeping. She kind of gets upset if you keep talking. She is always watching over Beckham as he is crawling to make sure he won't get hurt. She is very sweet to him, until he slobbers on one of her toys, then the sweetness goes out the window. She also nurses stuffed animals. She doesn't keep it realistic by just nursing babies. She doesn't discriminate between species.

4. Sami does not like "spicy" things. Spicy is a very loose term. It includes actual spicy food, such as mexican food. She also calls things that are in the mint family spicy. She will only eat fruit gum, no candy canes, and sometimes even ketchup is too spicy. Seasoned fries, or tater tots are also a no-no. She loves to eat pickles, pistachios, beef jerky, and anything with ranch.

5. She loves to play video games with Aaron. She even has her own controller. It's broken but don't tell her that. She always checks to make sure there are batteries in it. She always wants to sit on his lap to help him, which is of course no help at all.

6. When she was a baby she went through quite a fussy stage. I'd like to refer to is as the: Sami has really bad colic, and it's horrible, I don't know if I can survive stage. I've actually tried hard to forget it...Anywho, so she would scream and cry for a few hours in the evening and nothing could get her to stop. Nothing. So one time we tried playing music really loud to see if that would stop her. We have a dvd of Beastie boys' videos (courtesy of Darrel, I believe.) So we popped that in and selected Intergalactic. We sat down with her right in front of the t.v and turned the volume way up. She quieted down instantly and fell asleep within about a minute and a half. We were simply amazed. We tested this phenomenon thoroughly. Unfortunately, we had plenty of opportunities to do so. That was the only song that would do the trick. None of the other videos had the same effect. I even remember showing this to my younger brothers once, just in case no-one believes me. She would quiet right down and then fall asleep with this song blaring. It was crazy!
Ok so that is my little Sami! She is so fun to have around. I can't believe she is almost 4! I am getting old.

So cute. It sounds like she might be a handful with the boys...better lay down some ground rules now :)

Tell Aaron to give me a call about possible work if you guys are planning on coming back to AZ. Also does Aaron know where he is going for his rotations?
