- He likes to be punctual. Actually he likes to be early. He kind of freaks out if we don't get somewhere on time. I'm always late so we run into a little conflict. Glad he's like that, but also kind of drives me nuts.
- Sam has turned into a big eater - favorite foods are pancakes, eggs (loves and always asking for eggs), hamburgers, chicken fries, ramen noodles (though Dad won't let him eat anymore because he read some article how they are really bad for you), loves my meatloaf, tacos and anything sweet! He's a vanilla lover like his Mom.
- Sam is a little smarty pants - does really good at school and enjoys going. Reading at a 2nd/3rd grade level in first grade. He's very good at math and back in the fall we received a letter that his test score indicated he is "gifted" at math. Definitely did not get that from his Mom (or Dad for that matter) =-).
- Sam is a social butterfly - he loves playing with friends/loves being around people. Constantly asking to play with neighbor friends.
- Sam loves sports - he's doing Tae kwon do (orange belt right now), starting golf lessons and playing flag football right now. He likes soccer in the fall and basketball in the spring. He's asked to do others but told him no way Jose! Already too much on his plate - but he loves it. He also loves to watch sports - especially football and golf. Loves to watch the Bengals and would probably say his favorite golfer is Jordan Speith and Bubba.
- Sam is a good big brother (most of the time)- he and Ben play great and are now bunk bed mates.
- Sam loves electronics - his Nintendo DS, phone, xbox- he'd play all the time if we let him. Have to limit it for sure. He equally loves board games - Yahtzee is his current go-to.
- Sam loves his new puppy Hogan. It's so cute to hear him talk to Hogan. "Here buddy, give me a kiss" "Yes, I know...I love you too Hogan". I love it
- He is a sleeper - when he is out, he's out. He sleeps through bad storms, Hogan barking and Ben puking...
- Sam is goofball - likes telling jokes, likes to dance and be silly.
- Sam can be very blunt - says what he is thinking...not sure he has a filter. Kind of scares me as he gets bigger =-)
- Sam likes going to church and his Sunday school class.
- He likes his head rubbed every night (by Dad) and his back rubbed by Mom - "very very lightly" he tells me every night =-) His favorite stuffed animal is still Rufus and he loves his white blanket
- Sam's confidence has seemed to have grown in the past couple of months. He's doing awesome riding his bike and doing monkey bars.
Very proud of our 7-year old Sammy. Love him so so so much!!!!!!!!
