Growing and Growing!
















Sam continues to get be a great eater and I think he's growing more every day! On Saturday we went down to Grandma and Grandpa Goble's house while Matt and Chad were at the Ice Fishing Extravaganza. The guys didn't catch any fish, but they did catch a lot of chilly and wind burn, so they were pretty glad to be back where it was warm in the evening. Sam spent some time with Julia who wasn't always feeling the best, but they had fun. Brenda and Jesse came over for a while too and it's amazing to see how much bigger and more alert Sam is than Jesse at only 20 days older.

The representative from the school district visited on Friday last week and began Sam's evaluation. It seems that most of the questions she asked about development, he is already doing or starting to do. There are a couple of things we weren't able to assess, so she is recommending that the physical therapist evaluate him as well.

Sam is starting to like his tummy time a little bit more. He's really getting stronger and picking his head up really well, in fact he's starting to even lift his chest off the floor also. He's also beginning to follow things with his eyes really well, so that's encouraging.

Friday he also had his first babysitter, as Auntie Dee and Julia stayed with him for a couple of hours so I could get my hair done. He had his first bottle of breastmilk and did a really good job of eating from the bottle too. Such a big boy!
