Mama

You've got to listen very closely but I just KNOW he said, "mama"

Shake Rattle and Roll

He's a little man that LOVES to have his diaper changed so he loves the changing table. Now what's better then a good diaper change? Why a diaper change and a rattle of course!

Kick-n-Play

And to think my husband thought I was exaggerating when I told him he kicks like crazy when I was pregnant. Does this look like I was exaggerating?

Jumping

If you look closely you can see Kyah our German Shepherd trying so hard to stay out of the camera shot even though she wants to kiss Samuel.

Love

I love this photo that my husband took on his cell phone of me and our little man when Samuel was about 2 months old. I was totally exhausted but so very content.

Rice Cereal no go

Our doctor told us that Samuel might be ready early to try solid foods so we tired a bit of rice cereal. As you can tell by the pictures he wasn't having any of it. Guess we have to wait until he's a bit older.

Jan 1, 2010 (100 days old)

Samuel's 100th day was Jan 1, 2010 (if you are Asian you know that it's a big deal). Grandma wanted to have a HUGE celebration and invite everyone but I was able to get her to just have it be low key and with the family.

I had to promise her she could go all out for Samuel's 1st birthday. Why is it I've got visions of the show Sweet 16 on MTV in my head just thinking about what grandma is planning for Samuel's first birthday.

Jumping for joy at grandmas

Just bought Samuel a jumperoo and he loves it! He's still a little small for it so we have to put something under his feet so he can jump but he still loves it.

His favorite is the lion that spins when you press the button. He doesn't have the strength yet to hit the button hard enough to get the lion to spin but he knows that's what causes it to spin so he keeps banging on it until someone comes over to help him out. I'm a sucker for always pushing the button for him because he always rewards me with squeals and smiles.

Thanks for spinning the lion mama!

To the mat

What should I play with first?

Ohhhhh...hi mama

Oh my the monkey moves!

Dancing for mama

Tummy time

Kick-n-play

Samuel LOVES his kick-n-play. He's a real kicker even when he was in the womb

Trying to smile and eat his fingers. Not as easy as he makes it look


Not so happy that his kick-n-play stopped working (ran out of batteries). Don't mess with him when it comes to his kicking

Hi mama!

Merry-go-round

I think Samuel might be a bit young for the Merry-go-round but I just could not resist getting a picture.
