Sassy Door Bouncer

Sam got a Sassy Door Bouncer from Uncle David.  We have been putting Sam in it the last few weeks, he is starting to bounce more and more by himself and he loves it.

Ride a little horsey

I was trying to do ride a little horsey on my knee with Sam, I think he just loves to be bounced around and play, he just giggles and laughs.

Sam Loves Copper

Sam absolutely loves our dog Copper and Copper loves Sam.  Copper at times is like a momma bear and wants to take care of Sam.  Jamie and I would love it if Copper would change Sam's stinky diapers; don't think it is going to happen, but we could hope.  The both of them just light up when the see each other.

The next farmer??

Sam got a John Deere hat from Uncle Greg and Aunt Betsy.  We got the hat out and put it on Sam, he loved the hat, maybe he is the next farmer in the family.  I know he will always have a job available on Edisto Island, helping Greg and Betsy with Geechie Boy Market & Mill.  Maybe when Sam is older he can go and visit his cousin Victor and help at the Market and Mill.  He is ready to drive the Tractor!!!

Trying to Crawl or pushups, that is the question???

Sam is trying so hard to crawl, he scoots or tries to crawl backwards and does a pretty good job.  Sam hasn't got the going forward direction yet.  He gets frustrated trying to crawl forward and ends up picking himself up like he is doing push-ups.  Maybe he wants strong arms and abs before he starts crawling, not sure??

Faces for Grandma Johnsman

This week was Grandma Johnsman's week to watch Sam.  She got some great shots of Sam's many faces.

Smilin' Sam

Sam is a very happy baby and many times he gets into a giggling and smiling fit.  This evening he was just smilin' for the camera.

Afternoon nap????

Sam has been fighting taking naps and sometimes in the afternoon when Jamie finally gets Sam to take a nap, it is only for a few minutes.  This afternoon Jamie went back to check on Sam and he wanted no part of sleeping.  Copper went to check on Sam too, she is such a big help.

Sippy Cup

We gave Sam a sippy Cup to see if he could do it.  He grabbed onto the sippy cup very quickly and holds it great.  With a little help it didn't take him long to figure out where the milk comes out.  We are still working on tipping the sippy cup to get the milk.  Sam still get his bottle, but we are slowly introducing the sippy cup over the next couple months.

Book Belly Time

Evening book time on our bellies, Sam was into this book, and Copper helped too.
