The shirt may say one thing, but the face says something else... (if you can not read it, the shirt says "I am a lot tougher than I look")
Below are two pictures - one each of Lizzy and Sammy at one week old. Can you guess who is who?    Lizzy enjoys helping with Sammy at bathtime.  She also enjyos getting a bath herself.  However, Sammy is still not too sure about bathtime....
 For the first three weeks of Sammy's life we had constant help - for the first two weeks Mema was here, and the third week Grandma Sharon was here. Tim and I really appreaciated all the help around the house and with the kids. While Sammy slept most of their vists, Lizzy tended to fight nap and bedtime in order to maximize time with Mema and Grandma. Her favorites were going to the park with Mema and making monkey cupckaes with Grandma.     When I checked into the hosptial on Mon Sep 28 the daily temperatures were still over 100 degrees. However, by the time I checked out 2 days later the high was only 85! Here are some pictures of our first family walk. Lizzy loved the new "Sit-n-Stand" stroller because she could easily move around to see Sammy or get out to walk. Sammy slept through the walk (so we think he liked it...)  Sammy and Chris both left the hospital on the morning of Wed Sep 30. The transition was pretty easy as Tim took the week off from work and Mema was in town. Sadly Aunt Deb had to fly back to TX that evening. Here is a picture of Sammy's first time sleeping in his own crib. He seemed to like it...   Sammy resting on Mommy after a long and exhausting birthday.  Sammy proves that his lungs are strong!  First time Tim gets to touch his new son.  Mommy cuddling her boy.  Daddy cuddling his boy.  Lizzy holing Sammy for the first time.  Mema (Chris' mom) flew in from MI and stayed for over two weeks to help with Lizzy and the new baby. Thanks mom!  Aunt Deb flew in from TX to help with Lizzy and see Sammy.  Sammy's inked feet following his footprints.  Chris in Sammy's room on Sun Sep 27, less than 24 hours before Sammy's scheduled arrival.
