Afterbath

Where does this blonde hair come from?

Aaron & Mama

He was considerably more awake this evening than he has been thus far.

Tummy Time

It's not easy.

Blocks

Moments later: Destruction.

A walk

This is an equal opportunity blog.

It wasn't that bright out, not sure why he decided to cover his eyes.

Outing

First outing as a foursome: to Babies R Us and to Kroger for a few
things. A good time had by all.

Good Morning

Now that it's morning, Aaron has decided to get some sleep.

All right already

Upcoming Events

 The Room is ready.

The baby should be done by now.  Plus Samuel is super excited.

Grandma Irene

After talking to Grandma Irene on the phone, he proceeded to say her name repeatedly.

Harmonicas

The boy's a natural.

Messy Dinner

Pasta.

In the pool

We filled the little pool a few days ago. We bought it at the end of summer for like $2 last year. Samuel, of course, loves it, as he love all things that have to do with water.

Hat

Sometimes I can get him to wear a hat.

C!

He calls hair "c" or "see", we think as in "SEE my hair?" from a while back. Now all hair is "c". He likes being on my shoulders. It's usually good for another 1-2 minutes of happiness when he's getting cranky during the last song in church.

Babysitter

Samuel had a babysitter last weekend - Grandma Irene. Good times were had by all.

Jason

Samuel is not always interested in taking pictures.



Or sitting still.


But with the right technological prodding,

He can usually be caught for a picture.

It was great having Jason here this past weekend. Our only regret was that Mary Jane couldn't make due to work. And that he couldn't stay longer. And that I basically forced him to work on the church landscaping project for 2 days of his visit. But anyway, it was great.

Hometown Days Pics

Here are some more pictures from our trip to Hometown days.



Hannah and Samuel enjoy the sounds coming from the Swartz Creek Idol contest.


Samuel makes a new friend.


The last picture we have of Samuel before he was eaten alive.

Hometown Days

We made a stop at Swartz Creek Hometown Days on Saturday night and saw the sights.

Godfather Broge

We've had a visit this weekend from Godfather Broge.
