A Week At Glance

I can't believe a week has already gone by! People have been getting onto me about getting some new pictures of Samuel up. I finally made some time to post new stuff today. :) Samuel is a month old now. Today he weighs 5 pounds 1 ounce......yea, he reached the 5 pound mark! He gets cuter and cuter with each passing day. He had a bit of a set back over the weekend, but is okay now. He is taking 3 feedings by mouth a day and the doctor said that will go up tomorrow. He is close to coming home....we just don't know how close. That's up to Mr. Sam. He may have his big boy surgery ("snip snip") as early as tomorrow. Poor little guy. :( Please keep praying for Samuel.

I had another wonderful shower over the weekend. My sisters Melissa and Jessica put it all together. They should go into the baby shower business! :) I'll have to get those pictures up another day. I haven't forgot about getting the pictures from my classroom shower up either. There is just not enough time in a day. I'll put them up sometime this weekend.

Sweet boy....just snoozing away after a feeding.

Getting big!

Getting ready for a diaper change....Shoo Weee! :)

I have to go back to school on May 11 for the last two weeks of school. That will be a very hard thing to do since I will just be getting my little guy home. Well, my mom and dad will be caring for Sam during that time. The nurses suggested that my mom start coming to get used to handling a preemie. Yesterday, Samuel was held by someone other Nick and I and the NICU nurses...... his Grandmother Willett (my mom).
