Great things come in small packages...

Two month old check up today and the verdict is........a perfectly wonderful snugglie Sam!

So the scale said 7pounds 8ounces. That is ONE ounce more than when he left the hospital 5ish days ago!  Yup, we'll take it!  I also want to mention he had a massive blow out of the poop maker just before they weighed him!  No cheating with Sam and holding the poop in for extra weight!  He also is 20 inches long!  That is an additional 3 inches since birth!  He is now considered an "average" sized newborn!  With 2 weeks left till his due date he is looking like he is on track to be just like his siblings.  His head is still huge (just like the others) even for a preemie!  He is currently not on the "charts" for a 2 month old in weight and height.  His head does stack up with other 2 month olds!  Sam's skinny little legs also two to shots today, not his first and not the last!  Now back to eating and growing!

Too Bright! Too Bright!

Oh the sun is so bright!  We realized this was Sam's first time out in the open air EVER!!  Poor guy was wiped out by the sun and crisp breeze!

On a side note, you'll notice the little guys mouth is smaller than the face on Brian's watch...  HA- Actually I think they are about the same size.  The perspective of the camera makes the watch a bit bigger, just for a size reference.  Brian's face is still that large though.

liar liar pants on fire.

No, me no cookie. 

Can we say liar?

I missed you...

Before I formed you in the womb I knew you, and before you were born I made you holy. Jeremiah 1:5

WELCOME HOME!

Welcome Home Sam! 

8 weeks was a long time to wait, but it was worth it!

Another Tour pic....

The above pictures are still from the tour yesterday.  The one of everyone is them searching for the house.  The other is just a view from the garage up on top of St. Mary's.  Would you believe they have a john deere lawn mower up there?  They use it to tow  the helicopters out of the garage.

Sam doing well!  He is now 7 pounds 5 ounces.  He is up to 6 attempts at nursing.  Sam is such a charmer.   Sam has several of the nurses in total love with him.

Bestest dad ever...

Just in case you didn't know Brian is the bestest dad around these days!  To put up with all he does and still manage to find time to go to work and fold laundry! 

Yup, no railings on that pad up there just the big landing circle to run on.  Good thing it wasn't too close to the edge....hey kids you can see our house from here!
