The last of Sam's Birthday

Sam's birthday was a several day event, so here are highlights from the actual day. 

I think this first one was actually the night before. We get so silly at night on the green couch. Here is Daddy tickling Sam...

Mommy got a frosted cookie for Sam's birthday that we all got to share. Sam was VERY serious about eating his part of it!

We went to the play area at the mall before supper since Sam hadn't been able to play there yet. He enjoyed it, but was a little cautious. I can't really blame him though because EVERY single kid in that play area came over and hugged and kissed Sam (and many of them multiple times). He was  a bit overwhelmed with it all!

Happy Birthday Sam!

It's hard to believe that Sam is one already! We celebrated his birthday on Sunday, and he had fun, although he was a little overwhelmed with everything.

Waking up with Grandpa and eating a cracker :)

I loved the birthday hats we got!

Sam wasn't the biggest fan of the birthday hats, but we kept trying!

Happy Birthday little brother!

 Presents time! I helped Sam out by opening all of his presents. That way, Sam could just play with everything. He was completely fine with that!

The hat again?!

Here was Sam's favorite part...the cake!

Brothers! Sam does not want to hold still for pictures anymore!

Here are some cute outfits he got for his birthday. Doesn't he look cute?

We had a great first year, Sam! Happy birthday!

Trick or Treat!

I had a great Halloween, and Sam did too (for the most part). 

One quick thing, Sam took his first steps this week! AND, he walked to ME!! Here is a picture right after it happened. He wouldn't really do it again because he was so excited and just wanted to bounce. 

We went to pick Mommy up at work and show our costumes to some of the people there. Here we are with Char...she is my favorite! Sam was playing shy.

Char took a picture of us all together. It turned out great...Sam was still a little nervous though.

Now the trick or treating. I had SOOO much fun! Sam really got into it as well and carried one cereal bar around for the entire time. After an hour though, he had had enough and was ready for supper. He bawled the whole way on the walk back to the truck. Once he got food, he was perfectly fine. I was much braver this year, and I went up to the houses and found the doorbell and then said trick or treat each time. If someone told me I could take two pieces of candy, I would say, "I'll take one for Sammers". So far Sam hasn't seen any of that candy, but that is more Mommy and Daddy's choice. I am still really good about sharing my candy.

Have a great weekend!
