Sam "talking" to Mommy

I took this video of Sam "talking" to me the other day and I wanted to see if I could get it to work on here. Sam is wearing an old hat of Adam's from when he was little. Sam "talks" to us like this everyday. He especially likes to talk to Daddy. Sam really knows his voice. I hope that he will know his heavenly fathers voice just as well when he gets older!

Headed to Colorado

We are heading to Colorado for vacation tomorrow. My whole family is going to be there. I am soooo excited!! Not only do I get to see my whole family, but I get to introduce my son to his great-grandma (Gigi), and my aunt and uncles and cousins and my cousin's little guy Maddox. I promise to have lots of picture and stories when we get back. Hopefully they are stories about how great of a traveler my son is.

Just for fun here are some pictures of Sam in his Jonny Jump-Up. He likes it OK, but I think that he will love it when he gets a little bit bigger. He is not quite tall enough and he doesn't quite get how to jump in it.

Father's Day

Adam with his dad, Paul, and Samson

For Adam's first Father's Day, I wanted to make it special. So after Sam had his breakfast, we went and got Daddy breakfast from McDonalds and gave him breakfast in bed. Sam got his Daddy a board book that is also a picture frame so Adam can put it on is desk in his office. He also got Adam a journal so he can write in it and pass all of his wisdom on to Sam. Adam plans on giving it back to Sam on his 13th birthday. I got him some boxers so that Mommy doesn't have to do laundry as often :)

Sam with Grandpa Ledyard

Adam's parents were here for the weekend so after Sam's second feeding (He still eats every two hours) I made a nice lunch for us all. We gave both grandpas a picture frame with a picture of them with Sam in a picture frame that said I Love My Grandpa. They both loved their gifts. I made Dad cry (For those of you don't know our family has this inside joke to see who can get mom or dad to cry when we give them a gift).

Sam with his Boppa

After Adam's parent left we went to my grandma house to have dinner with my side of the family. It was fun because my cousins were home from college so we got to visit with them too. Grandma had a great meal as usual and we had a good time.

All and all it was a great day and I think it was really special for Adam. Sorry I do not have any pictures of Adam with Sam with all turn out horrible.

Wiggle Worm

Our little man is quite the wiggle worm. Before we put him in his crib (thanks Uncle Tim and Aunt Bonnie) he would wiggle his way up to the end of the bassinette and end up side ways. So far when he is in the crib he does not move that much. I am not sure why.

Our beautiful new crib

Finger or Thumb?

What do you think, will Sam be a finger sucker or a thumb sucker? In my family Tarah and I were thumb suckers and Tori and Andy were finger suckers. Adam's mom did not let him suck anything so it will be interesting to see. Right now he likes to stick his whole fist in his mouth. Personally I think he will be a thumb sucker, but I guess I am a little bias.

Finger?

Thumb?

Or what ever he can fit in his mouth
