Here are some pictures from the past month or so. Sorry it took so long to get them uploaded. Sam is working on his 2nd tooth this week. He is sooooo close to crawling! We have the video camera ready. Sam is getting ready for Christmas. We have visited Santa, hung our stockings, decorated the tree, looked at lights, went shopping....etc. Sam didn't really care too much about Santa...oh well. New this past-reaching for people to hold him....so cute! Sam's favorite Christmas song is Jingle Bells. I will try to get more pictures up soon.

Ho ho ho...Merry Christmas!

Almost 9 Months!

Sam will turn 9 months old on Sunday! Poor little guy had a doctor's appointment today because he woke up wheezing this morning. No worries...just a minor bronchial infection. The doctor had a ball playing with Sam. He said he was much too happy to be sick. :) Our Sam weighs 22 pounds. They didn't measure him....we'll do that when we get home. Yesterday I noticed Sam has a tooth coming in. We were so excited. I have been checking his gums for months looking for a pearly white. He finally has one on the way. :) We had a nice Thanksgiving break and we are looking forward to Christmas. We are very blessed that's for sure. Most of you know by now that I am teaching pre-K. I am enjoying it, but it is a lot of hard work. Sam loves going to Grandmother and Granddad's house each day. I have a lot of new pictures to post. I forgot my camera at home. Hopefully I will the new pics up soon. Oh, Sam is almost crawling. He can move backwards and will soon be able to move forward. Well, he can army crawl forward....just not on all fours yet. He gets on all fours and just rocks back and forth. Several times this past weekend we thought for sure he was about to take off. I'll definitely let you guys know when he does.
