Sam's new "friends"

Sam has an obsession.  Rocks.  They are his friends.  He looks for them everywhere and protects them from anyone (mom and dad) who would like to take them away.

Must run with the rock.

My prize rock!

Daddy is trying to reason with Sam to give up the rocks.

Look at them, mom!  Aren't they great?

Bye, rocks!

Let's burn some energy!

Sam is so full of energy now that it takes multiple trips to the park to tire him out enough so that he will nap or sleep during the night.

Trike Time!

Sam's been spending time riding his bike with his Aunt Drea. 

Apparently his head has grown so big that he needs a new helmet. 

And getting some love from Harmony...

Wordless Wednesday

Zoo!

We took Sam to his first visit to the Baltimore Zoo.  Sam loves to make animal sounds so we thought he'd have fun seeing the bears, birds, giraffes, elephants, etc.
He seemed to have a blast with only a few meltdowns when it was time to move on to the next animal.

Let me apologize in advance for all the pictures of the back of Sam's head.   I'm sure this post will only fuel Jack's need to cut Sam's hair since it's clear his hair is out of control.

Watching the polar bear.

Pretty flowers.

"Come on, guys!"

Showing me the zebras.

Fascinated by the water.

Showing Daddy the birds and gazelles.

Elephants!

Love this boy!

Is it summer already?

80 degree weather today meant Sam got to spend some quality time with his water table.  He really loves the water.  I'll need to get him signed up for swim lessons soon.

  

What the heck happened to my baby boy?

He's suddenly taking on big boy responsibilities and I'm struggling with letting him go.  :-)
LOVES to brush his teeth.
