Sam is 18 Months

We went to the see Dr. App today for Sam's 18 month check up! He is weighing in at 24lbs and measuring 32 inches.

Such a Big Boy!

Here Mr. Independent makes several attempts to put on his shoes, what a Big Boy!

The Sun finally comes out!

Our adventures outside are limited, but when the sun finally decided to come out we took full advantage of the situation. Again, Rockne was with us but nowhere in site.

Hi Deer!

Before I open the curtains in our room, Sam usually pulls them to the side to see if their are deer in in the backyard, and regardless if there are or not he says" hi, deer". Not until later in the day dod the deer finally arrive. So we opened the window, and he let the deer hear it. And as always, Rockne puts in his barks, as well.

Wintery Days!

Sam has been finding different ways to entertain us through these cold wintery days. He loves to go through our drawers and take out everything we own, then put it back in the wrong drawer. So his father and I are finding spatulas in our underwear drawer and vice versa. Thank goodness we can still smile about it.

Valentine's Day Dinner

Sam finally let us put on his "leather" coat. It must have been since we were going out to eat for Valentine's day!

Jammin' to the Music!

During the Grammy's Sam was running around the house like a "mad man" but as soon as he heard a song he liked, he stopped and started Jammin' to the Music.

The BIG Smile!

Sam loves to go in and out of the laundry basket, here he didn't do such a great job at getting out. But still managed to Smile after it was all said and done.

Never a dull Moment!

Ella usually comes to visit once a week or vice versa. And each time I think it can't get any crazier, it always does. The great thing is that they are a great source of entertainment for eachother but this time, us parents had to get involved. Which usually isn't a bad thing, but when it comes to the wagon and tricycle, we can be pushing and pulling for hours. We first started with pulling the wagon, then had to put "Thomas the Train" tent over the wagon, and we can't miss the tricycle rides. As you can see, never a dull moment!

Our Crazy Sam!

Sam & I went to see Dr. Elderkin (OB/GYN). I am 17 weeks along. Sam got to hear the baby's heart beats (156). Next time we go, we get another UltraSound & they even videotape it for us!
