2 year pics



We wanted to get pictures done for Sam's 2nd year. I didn't realize how challanging it is to get a soon to be 2 year old to sit down for pictures. We intended on having Sam wear his Chicago Bears uniform with Jacob's old football and helmet, Sam had other ideas. We did manage to get a couple shots with the football. The whole time he wanted to count the blocks and play basketball. Playing with the basketball with a football outfit on. He saw the basketball way up on the top shelf hidden in a basket. He can spot them anywhere. He yelled ball until he could get his hands on it. Then he kept on climbing down and telling us,"all done, all done." I am so glad that my montherin-law was there. The lady taking the pictures was loud and making strange noises, hoping to get Sam to smile. I told her to take it down a couple notches, that he responds well to you just talking to him. I said, Sam look at Mommy and say cheese." He did and smiled on cue.

Little Sam






Here he is 3 days old. This was his home for 2 months and we were so happy to walk out of there with him.

Sam is almost 2-Remembering

















Last night was an exciting day in our house. Sam went number 1 in the potty. Yeah! First try at home and he did it. There was much clapping and excitement. He is almost 2, which seems amazing to me. My mother in-law gave me a couple of memory sticks from her camera. There were pics of my baby shower that was in St.Lukes hospital while I was there for my 4 week vacation(ha ha) My baby shower was three days before I had little Sam.
