A Bachelorette Party!

I had my first day away from Sam.  It took me a whole week to stock up enough milk for my day away, but it was totally worth it!  My good friend and college room mate, Courtney, is getting married!  For her bachelorette party we went to several different wineries around the Austin area in a limo.  It was a such a fun day and a great way to celebrate Courtney's upcoming wedding!

Another Office Visit

Sam got to visit my mom's office for the second time!  The first time he visited GMA took him around so fast that I totally forgot to get pictures with everyone.  If you know my mom, then you know how she gets when she gets excited :)  This time, I was able to snap a few before she took off again!  HA!

 

 

Bledsoe Visit

Sam got to go to Bledsoe (Aly's school) today for another visit.  He waved to my class as they passed by.  The kids were so cute!

We also got to pick up this awesome sign that one of my teacher friends did for Sam!

Southbound 35, we're headed down the road...

Sam made his first trip down I-35 to Austin.  It was very exciting!  We got to visit with Great Aunt Juuuuuuudy, Uncle Kyle, Aunt Alex, Aunt Mitzi, Aunt Megan, my mom's office, my dad's office, and of course both sets of grandparents!  Sam even got to have a play date with his girlfriend, Stella, and Aunt Kay-Kay!  Here are some pics from the trip.

ESP visit

Sam loved reading his zebra book with his GMA!

A Visit from Grandma and Granddad and Puppies!

Last weekend my parents, Grandma and Granddad, came to visit us.  Well... I think when people come to visit they are no longer visiting Clint and me, they are just here to see Sam :)

The happiest Granddad in the world!

Sam loved riding around on GMA's shoulder

Sam got to meet my parent's three dogs

Granddad talked, played, and toured the house for hours with Sam!

Granddad had the magic touch :)  Sam smiled every time he talked to him.

Can you tell who was the center of attention all weekend!

Sam and GMA toured the backyard with all the dogs!

2 Month Check-up

2 month photo

Wow!  How can two months go by so fast?!  It is amazing how much Sam is growing, changing, learning, and doing.  Here are some of the things Sam has been up to:

- standing with support
- lifting his head
- walking up someone's tummy
- smiling, a lot!
- after a sneeze, he always says, "Oh" is such a precious little voice
- his favorite words (ok, really sounds, but they sound like these words) are oh, hi, and wow
- he tries to copy different faces you make
- he laughs if you stick your tongue out at him, and he is trying to do it back
- he is obsessed with zebras - actually he just loves anything that is black and white striped. He will sit in his bouncer and stare and talk and laugh at his "zeba."
- he gets so excited when dad comes home from work (he is excited to see mom too, but he sees her all day!).  He will turn to look at dad and smile when he sees him.
- The best still is when he just stares lovingly into our eyes and smiles.  Just melts our hearts.
