The cuteness that is Sam

Sam is extra cute lately.  I mean, he's starting to develop such a personality and he's way fun to play with.  He's learned to clap so that's really cute. 

Most of all, Sam learning to walk is by far, the cutest thing EVER.  I don't think I'll ever get tired of taking pictures and/or video of him walking.  You may get tired of looking at them though.  :-)

And here's some video of my cutie. (I'm not sure what I did to make it sideways.  I definitely don't know how to fix it. Still cute though.)

Sam's first haircut

I wanted Sam to grow his hair out b/c I'm convinced that the longer it gets, the curlier it will get.  J was not digging Sam's crazy hair right now and was firm on the need for his first haircut.

So, off we went.  If I hadn't been so distracted on trying to keep Sam distracted, I may have cried.  I held it together and so did Sam for the majority of the haircut.

We picked the mini cooper to sit in b/c it's my mom's (Harmony) favorite car!

Sitting still, watching Elmo  (that didn't last long)

Happy times after the haircut is over



Let's Go Cowboys??

J is making sure that Sam is rooting for his team.  Ew!

Let's go GIANTS!!!  I see that I have some shopping to do.  :-)

Looking out at the horses with Grandpa Shap.

This is how Sam prefers to hold his toys.

I want to ride my bicycle. BICYCLE! BICYCLE!

Do you know that song?  I can't get it out of my head now.  If I could figure out how to add music to my blog posts, I'd play that song for this one.

J has been searching all summer for a great deal on a bike trailer so that he can take Sam on a bike ride.  He finally found an awesome one on CraigsList.  (We love CraigsList!)

So we took the trailer to the farm to try it out.  Sam seemed to like the ride.  The helmet was a different story though.

**Mom, I know Sam doesn't have socks on and that he should.**

"Get this thing off!"

It started to rain, but luckily we have a rain shield!

Chillin'

Walk this way!

Sam took his first unassisted steps today (September 18th) and we got it on video!

**I turned the sound off on the video.**

I'm thinking it's time for a haircut

::shooting daggers at J for giving his son HIS crazy hair::

Another photo shoot in the neighborhood

We went outside to practice more walking and also to take some more pics.  Sam loves the fountain and on this trip he just kept walking around and around the fountain.
