9 months

I can't believe that Sam is 9 months old! The time has flown by and I have enjoyed it so much. I still look at him in amazement that he is our baby. He is quite the little show off now. At church it seems he is passed around alot and he just takes it all in and tries to entertain as much as possible.

Here are a few of his 9 month pictures:

We took Sam swimming last week for the first time. He loved it! He didn't mind getting water in his face at all. Good thing he liked it so much, now we can spend the summer at the pool!

A few weeks ago, we met Laura and Chris halfway between Richmond and Rocky Mount. I think we stayed out a little late for Sam, he was pretty much done by this time. It was good to spend time with L and C, maybe one day we'll be closer to each other.

This past Friday we had our friends over and celebrated Z's 30th birthday. We had such a good time with everyone. It was fun seeing all the kids together. Pretty soon, they'll be running around and we'll be chasing them. For now we will enjoy that they stay in one spot.

This was right after we caught Sam eating his friend Andrew's hand. We have to watch him because everything goes in his mouth these days. He loves chewing on his toes!

I love this little guy so much!

This past weekend we took the youth group to a retreat in Ashville, NC. We left the church Sat. morning around 5 and headed back on Monday. Sunday everyone went skiing at Black Mountain. It was a terrible day for skiing! Sam was such a good baby the whole trip. I think heenjoyed being passed around and especially his first bus ride!

3 Months

It's hard to believe that Sam is 3 months now! We took him to get his pics taken last week and they turned out so good. It was extremely hard to choose...here are a few that I just loved!
