PBJ's and Ella!

Sammy & Ella enjoying their lunch outside.
Ella had her hair in a "fountain" and never complained until her parents arrived to pick her up!

Our adventures with Ella were surprisingly great. Both did very well, except for Sammy getting mad in the morning that Ella was in his bed with him. I didn't know how I was going to handle it, with Mike working all day, both of them being brats in their own way and I being 8 months pregnant! I am very proud to say we all survived the 2 days just fine.

Memorial Day!

Sammy and his police car that he just loves.

We were suppose to have Ella for the next several day but Sammy was running a fever and was extremely crabby, so Ella stayed with Abuelo for the night and Sam got better! These pictures were taken before all the drama happened with Sammy!

Sammy loves Apples!




Mike and I are amazed at how much Sammy loves his Apples. But, of course, if just not any apple, it has to be HoneyCrisp, Lady Pink or Pink Alice. On occassion, he will eat others but that is only on occassion. What we think what really triggered it was that "Spirit" loves apples, so that encouraged him to want more. He'll try to eat them like "spirit" but sometimes it's to much of a mess for us to handle, so we'll cut them up and put them in a baggy.

Our Thursday Nights!




Dad is back on his Thursday Night Golf League! So Sammy, Rockne and I have been enjoying Nights to ourselves and eating popcorn on the couch. Something we generally get in trouble in doing from Dad because we make such a mess!

One More Time!

Sammy wearing that same outfit his father did at one month old.

Sam at his baptism, he did so good, it might be because he slept the whole entire time.
Even now, he is sleeping. He is about 3 1/2 months old at this time.
Samuel Lucas with his Parents, Godparents, Paul & Robin, and Father Mark. He finally wakes up.
We went to Chicago during Christmas time of 2006, his dad made sure we took Sam to see Wrigley Field. He is only 4 1/2 months here, but his dad making him a fan at a early age.
The family's first picture with a Christmas tree. We lived for the exersaucer, as you can see he barely fit into it but he would spend a lot of time on it until he could crawl, then he was done with it. It was nice for the few months it lasted.

Sam's valentine's pictures. He was able to sit himself up here and I remember after taking these pictures, I had set the blanket on the floor and had him on his belly and this is when he first made his attempt to crawl. He would be on all fours and shake his butt, then would move one hand after the other. He would only do 2 or 3 times at a time before he would decided he didn't to try it anymore. Sam is 6 1/2 months. He really didn't get crawling til 7 1/2 months, right before we went to Mexico. I always thought Rockne was his motivation because even 'til this day, they are constantly chasing each other around.
We just got a new camera, they were unable to fix the old one, so they sent us a new one, upgraded and all. How exciting! Hopefully I will be able to download the new program and have new pictures posted soon! Thanks for your patience.

Back in Time!


Sam is only six days old here! This is such a great picture, since the minute he was born, he father loves to cuddle with him especially when he's sleeping. They both have been doing a lot of this lately, I will find Mike and Sam in the morning on Sam's bed in this exact position. Since I have this sinusitis, I snore... Mike said is sounds like a "Mad Cow". We usually go to sleep together but sometimes it gets so bad Mike goes to Sam's room.
Sam's outfit for his second Notre Dame Game, for the first game we were still in the Hospital.
Rockne has always been so good with Sam. Us 3 have been doing a lot of traveling together when it comes to running errands. Sam loves that Rockne can stick his head out the window, he yells "RA RA" and just laughs ( I can only imagine he is thinking that crazy dog). I love it because it gets Rockne out of the house for a little bit, this way he is not so full of energy, and we all are able to RELAX when we get home.




Dad loving Sam!




Forgive me for not posting on the blog lately but our camera is still getting fixed and I still haven't figured out how the DVD camcorder hooks up to the modem. So since we are about 2 months away from our new bundle of joy coming, I thought we would go back and look at Sam on his first few days in the world (I didn't have the blog set up at the time).
