Sam is almost 5 months old, but here is his 4 month picture! At his 4 month check up he was 16 lbs 3 oz (75th percentile) and 26 1/2 inches long (90th percentile!) He is wearing 9 month pjs!
Sam LOVES Daniel. He lights up whenever he comes into the room. When Sam is crying, Daniel says, "Its okay Sammy!" They are going to be playing together in no time. Makes us glad that they are so close in age!
Two weeks ago Sam was Baptized - it was a GREAT day!!!
He wore an outfit that his 20-year-old Uncle Steven wore the day he was Baptized!
Sam slept through the whole service. Grandpa stood behind us as our Elder representative. It was awesome to have him and so many family members and friends there!
Last weekend we went to Mackinac Island for the Republican Conference. Daniel stayed home with Aunt Sarah and Uncle Steve. Sam came with us - he was the youngest volunteer there and did a GREAT job!! This picture is in front of Mission Point.
Here we are on the porch of the Grand Hotel.
Daniel had a sedated Echo last month. It was a nerve-wracking experience, but had GREAT results! Daniel had to have an IV put into his hand - not fun. I was crying before it even started. Here we are looking at the little plastic cover they put over it.
After about 20 minutes of the Echo, the cardiologist finally said that his heart looked great! He told us that he could enjoy a "normal" childhood and he didn't think that Daniel would need another surgery!! We will go back next Spring for another check up, but he shouldn't have to be sedated again (thank goodness!) It was an answer to prayers!!
Work and life keeps us nice and busy. We love our boys - as you do too! We update our Facebook accounts as regularly as possible - so check us out there for more pictures :D
