A day at grandma's

Sam is getting to be such a big boy. He is in his 6 week growth spurt and eating and eating and eating.... .... and eating .... oh ya, and once in a while he sleeps too!

My mom is off work this week so we went over this afternoon. Sam loves hanging out with grandma & grandpa, but they wore him out and he decided to sleep off his growth spurt. I'm just hoping that he is worn out enough to sleep tonight! (ya right)

What a big boy!

Talking away to mommy...talks just like mom - with his hands

After dinner at grandma's - I'm sooo tired, I can barely keep my eyes open

Soooo tired, you can play with me all you want but I'm going to sleep!

How do I catch those fish??!

Sam is focusing now and has discovered the fish on his swing - I think I found a new babysitter :)

6 weeks old

6 weeks?! on one hand, it feels like "ONLY 6 weeks?!" and on the other hand it feels like "WOW, 6 weeks ALREADY?!"

look how big he is getting!! It is so true that they grow up too fast.

he likes trying out those legs and showing off his standing skills...

Monster Main!

Sam has been a monster this week...so I had to get his monster hat out. it's still a bit big, but too cute not to wear anyway!

Sam goes to basketball!

Sam went to dad's basketball game on Monday night. He was a monster most of Monday though and having a major fussy spell before we left the house, so when he fell asleep in the car seat we were so grateful that we left him there for the whole game!

Sam's baby shower

Sam had his baby shower on Sunday. We got so much stuff - he will be a very well dressed baby now!! It was a really fun afternoon - everyone spoiled us so much and it was fun to share Sam. Sam LOVED all the attention too, what an attention hog! And my friend Sara showed up with her 3 girls - what a special treat, it was so great to see them!! Thanks Sara & Anna for coming and giving up your afternoon nap! (as a new mom, I do appreciate what that means, haha)

I didn't get very good pictures with my camera (I was too busy!) but here are a few (I am missing all the decorations!! hopefully someone got those)

Sam with Auntie Twyla. Note he is dressed in his cute little outfit: riding shirt, jeans & paul frank socks.

Grandma & Sam

I swear someone gave Sam cake and coffee at the party. He was alert most of the day and didn't have his lunch nap. That night, his eyes were so wide open and he had so much energy - but unfortunately it was because he was so overtired! We have never seen him like that, it was kinda funny (unless you were the one that had to put him to bed, haha).
