Sam - 15 & 16 months

Lots to talk about over the past month.  Sam continues to grow and change every day - it really seems like he has grown up a lot in the past month though.  He is finally starting to say some words (I'm confident that he has "up", "dog", "duck" and "ball" down pat.  The others I can't be too sure about...but clearly he knows what he is saying!)  And he has really mastered his hand-eye coordination.  You've never seen a kid hit a t-ball or tennis ball as precisely as this one!  And the basketball hoop?  Forget about it...it's an obsession!  So, I think it's clear that we are raising a little athlete over here (or at least we'd like to think so!)

The other big news is that Jen, Adam and Celia came to visit over Easter.  That was a lot of fun.  it's amazing how quickly you forget what it is like to have a 6 month old!  It was only 9 months ago that Sam was that age, and I honestly had no recollection of the sleepless nights and the sitting still and playing with the same rattle all day long!!!!  But, she is so cute and pleasant.  We were really happy to have them, and I think they enjoyed the warmer temps!

Here are a few pics from the past month.  Enjoy!

He never misses!

A rare glimpse of my child eating veggies captured on camera!
