Pool time!

Tonight after a yummy dinner at Mellow Mushroom (Thanks, KC and M!), we headed to the pool.  J bought Sam a raft and we were pretty excited to try it out.  Well, I was pretty excited.

The baby pool is only 10 inches deep so Sam was able to move himself around the pool and even stand up in his raft.  He just floated around and around and splashed.  So fun!  We'll definitely be headed back again very often.

And starting pitcher for the Bats, number 8, Loooogggggannnnn U!

A HUGE congratulations to my nephew, Logan, on winning the championship game!  You are the greatest pitcher EVER.  Trust me...I would know.  I can't wait to visit Yankee stadium to see you play in 10-15 years. 

Oh, and next time, could you try not to give your Aunt Sandra a heart attack in the top of the 6th inning?  Just go ahead and sit the 1st 3 guys down, mkay?  You don't have to prove to us that you're great and walk a few guys before ending the game with a strike out.  :-)

Love you bunches, sweet Logs!

Happy Father's Day! Part 2

Today I'm wishing my hubby a special Happy 1st Father's Day!  You're so wonderful and Sam and I are very lucky to have you in our lives.  We love you so very much!!!

Here's a little peek at our father's day present to J  (Let's go Yankees!):

Happy Father's Day! Part 1

First, I want to wish my dad a very, very Happy Father's Day!  I know he's relaxing at the cabin this weekend so I'm hoping the weather clears up for you, Dad!

And here are some pics that I know he'd love for me to put out there on the interweb.  :-)  Thanks for being so great and working so hard for us.  Love you!

Seriously...my dad is too cool for school.

J and I both had to examine this pic to make sure it was Dad.  He looks so different!  Oh and yes, that is me.

And a peek at Sam's gift to his GP:

Picture Perfect Neighborhood

I love the neighborhood we live in.  Makes living in our tiny apartment so worth it.  Today Sam and I went for a walk and stopped to take some pictures.

**Christie, if you're reading this, make sure to take notes b/c this is exactly what I want except better and prettier and with all 3 of us. :-)**

Makes me wish I had a better camera.  Oh and that I had the skillz of a real photographer.  I just put Sam in the same pose in every single picture.  Classy!

Anyway...there are so many perfect picture spots but we only visited a few.

Morning cartoons

This is how Sam prefers to watch Super Why in the morning.

"Super Readers!  To The Rescue!"

Once again, please ignore the non-matching pajamas.   What can I say?  That's how we roll!

Anybody not eating their pickle? (And 7 month stats)

Cause Sam's not sharing his:

 Age: 7 months

Weight:  Around 23 lbs

Length: not sure

Size:  Wearing 12 month clothes now but growing out of those.  Can wear some 18mo clothes.

Teeth:  We got our first tooth last Saturday!  I can feel a 2nd tooth through the gum so that one should be here soon.

Sleeping:   Like crap.

Eating:  Sam is very picky about what he'll eat and not eat.  Some days he likes apples and other days he gags everytime I give him a spoonful.  Still won't do peas or peaches.

Movement:  Still rolling over and can lift his butt in the air with his legs while laying on his belly.  (can you picture that?)  If only he could lift his upper body while lifting his butt and then we'd be closer to crawling on all fours.

Milestones:  One new tooth.  Sitting unassisted.

Favorite Toys:  He loves this VTech toy that my parents got him.  It's like the dashboard of the car with a steering wheel and plays music and has a horn. 

Dislikes:  Sleeping.
