Sam's First Week

We have made it through our first week as a family of four. Sam has been a very mellow, sleepy baby. He pretty much just wakes up to eat then goes back to sleep again- Mama has even been getting some good sleep, although it has been in broken blocks of time. Papa has also been enjoying these sleepy times with baby Sam.

Wyatt has been a great big brother and is very interested in what Sam is doing and asks to hold him a lot, although we are constantly having to remind him to be gentle with the baby. Wyatt has not inflicted any harm yet but I don't doubt that we will have some exciting times ahead when Mama is home alone with both of them. I am sure that Sam will be a pretty tough kid by the time he is one.

Wyatt looks like a giant next to his little brother.

My boys, handsome bunch aren't they? :)

Ahh, those first little gassy smiles-so cute!

The proud Papa.

Shiway was just sure Sam was going to be a girl and made him a darling purple hat with a flower on the top....but he is man enough to still look good in it.

This one came from Julie, he has got some growing to do before it fits him just right but he definately makes a statement when he goes out with this one.

Visiting with Ellen. Taking some time to bond with my new little boy.

He may be sweet and cute but he still has attitude!
