Day 132 - My Boy

My mom has been telling me she needs a new photo of Sam for her wall.

So yesterday I took him outside for a quick shoot. It wasn't easy but I got this little gem.

However, we had to go through all of this to get there.

Weird smile, no eye contact

Uhhh . . . hands down please

Cute if he were looking at me.

Again with the weird smile

So cute!  But looking at something over my head.

Looking at me but saying something.

Classic Sam. Just a little squinty.

Sam giving up and doing what he loves.  Stinking Action Chugger.

Day 131 - Swimmin!

Sam has been telling me all week that he wanted to go swimming and/or go to the beach.  Since Elly isn't quite ready for the pool yet we needed to wait until Dad could take him.  At first he didn't want to get in because it was too cold but as soon as he warmed up, he didn't want to get out.  I think someone is going to be very excited to start swimming lessons in June. 

Now we just have to talk Dad into taking us to the beach . . . 

Day 130 - Tiger Hat

Yet another FABULOUS outfit choice by Sam.  Nothings says 90 degree weather like a knit tiger hat.  It is especially fetching one is only wearing it and Lightning McQueen underpants.

Day 130 - Puzzles

We didn't know Sam could do jigsaw puzzles.  Apparently, he's been doing them at school for a couple of weeks.  No big deal.  

Day 129 - Gettin' Dressed

Getting Sam dressed in the morning is a battle.  He always says, "NOOO!  PJ's!"  Then in the afternoon after lunch he immediately strips down to his under-roos.  Lately when he wakes up from his nap, he will come out wearing a shirt that he wasn't wearing when I put him down.  Usually backwards.

Some days, he comes out wearing an entirely new outfit as shown here. 

After watching the Aristocats, he decided he needed to wear his CAT shirt and brown pants . . . backwards.
