Aunt Elaine's Birthday

We went to a surprise birthday party for Joseph's aunt at Maggiano's Little Italy restaurant in Atlanta. It was fun and Sam enjoyed seeing the family again. Unfortunately I didn't get a picture of Sam with Aunt Elaine!! Oops! Hopefully someone else took a picture and will send it to me! hint hint haha The first pictures are Sam and Uncle Ted, then with Aunt Angie, Pops, Mommy, Meme, Cousin Lanie, Cousin Clay and Daddy.

Sam and his friends

Last week we went to see Carson and Caleb (the sons of two of my teacher friends). Carson is about 9 hours older than Sam! We played at Carson's house and went swimming in his pool. The last few pics are of Logan and Sam. Logan is staying with us during the school year while his mommy teaches.

Nine Months Old!!

Sam is now 9 month old! He can crawl very well and is trying to walk. He can pull up on things to stand and LOVES for people to hold his hands so he can walk around. It tires Mommy out so that's what grandparents and aunts are for!!! haha He is eating a lot of table food now. He likes Cheerios, cereal puffs, and anything else he can get in his mouth! The doctor says he is a little small for his age but we're thinking he'll catch up in the next few months. We had a bad bout of virus/teething/fever earlier this week but we are back to all smiles now! One month old



Three months old




Six months old



Nine months old!

Sam is nine months!

Here are some pics from this past month.

Camping in Hiawassee, GA

Joseph, Sam and I went camping with our friends Mandy, Brian and their son Bradley along with their Sunday School class and their families. Sam and Bradley were the only boys but they loved it. Sam was the youngest so he had lots of baby-sitters and I loved it!! :) It rained off and on a couple of days but it wasn't bad. Sam enjoyed the dirt and the streams most of all. There are several pics of him on a tarp(because the ground was wet and we were running out of changes of clothes!!) playing with sticks, rocks and dirt....you know, boy stuff!! The campground was really nice. The kids brought their bikes. Even the "big kids" (the Dads) brought their's too! There are a couple of pics of Bradley learning to ride. There was also a putt-putt course and a pool. We had a great time and look forward to next year!

Fourth of July

Wow, it's been a while since I put pics on the blog. Here is Joseph, Sam and I watching fireworks with Joseph's parents, Meme and Pops! Sam is in his pajamas because it was so late. He liked sitting around waiting for the fireworks but cried and fussed once they started because he was sooo tired!
