Saturday

On Saturday we took a little road trip with my family to Mankato to visit Reed for his birthday. Sam enjoyed the trip with Auntie Amy and Auntie Candy in the back seat entertaining him the whole way there! We went out to eat for some Mexican food and enjoyed a couple games of bowling. Sam didn't get in an afternoon nap (except very briefly in his carseat at the bowling alley!), but he was in great spirits the entire day. I think he was just glad to get out of the house!

Growing up fast...

This past weekend was a big one for our little kiddo. It was like he was growing up right before our eyes. His second tooth popped through. He started mimicking whatever Grandpa Roy was doing, clapping, touching his ears, patting the top of his head. It was pretty cute! He also has started crawling on his hands and knees, though this is still sporadic. The biggest thing though, is he can now use furniture to pull himself up to a standing position, and now he wants to do this ALL the time. He's pretty proud of it when it happens too. Along with this, he is also cruising along the furniture and attempting to crawl up stairs. Needless to say, he's keeping us very busy!

You can kind of see his two little teeth in this one!

Why buy expensive toys!

Peter's co-worker sent him this video (you will need audio to get the full effect). It was so funny we just had to share it with you!

Also, congratulations to our friends, Sara and Micah, who welcomed little Lucy into the world yesterday!!!

More Samuel Pictures

First of all, a big thanks goes to my cousin, Jennifer, for watching Sam all day on Thursday while I did some classroom observations. THANK YOU!

Now for some pictures. Here is Sam sporting a mohawk during bathtime, enjoying his new favorite beverage, and having some play time on Friday afternoon. We hope you are all having a great weekend!
