Thanksgiving

Last weekend Sammy was invited to his first friend birthday party - Brooklyn's 2nd! He also got his first kiss from her! He had a big Thanksgiving - spent Thursday with the Smith family and Saturday with the Robertson family. We have SO much to give thanks for!!! We have countless blessings in our life and loved spending the last few days with our family.

Jumper

Watch out! I'm getting high tech - finally able to post a video after like 25 times of trying. Every one I've tried to do is too long I think. This is our little jumping bean going to town in his jumper - not super exciting and it somehow cut out our voices. Oh well - I'm just happy that it seems to be working and you can see how much Sammy likes to jump! Just when you think he's getting tired and has had enough - he goes at it some more! Oh and next time we'll make sure there's more light and it's in focus! =-) What amateurs...

Whammer Time

Is it weird that it's only November 14th and we have Christmas lights on our house? Don't worry...they aren't on. Since it was so nice yesterday, Joe was into getting them up. Sammy liked checking them out and playing with them. He's got all kinds of teeth coming in - some days he seems to be really bothered by them and other days they aren't hurting him too bad. I feel bad for the little guy! He had his 6 month appt last week (which is more like 6 1/2 mo appt) and he was 28 1/2 inches long and 1 ounce short of 19 lbs. He did not like going to the doctor this time. He didn't seem to mind visits in the past, but now that he's so alert to everything around him- he realized real quick that he didn't want to be there with a scary stranger man giving him shots in the leg!

Cousin Keelie and Halloween

Sam met his new baby cousin, Keelie this weekend. She is beautiful! He also had a fun 1st Halloween dressed up as a monkey.
