granny and gramps were headed up there and we asked to join them!   it was a quick trip but the little ones sure made the most of it.   sydney is about 9 months older than jack  and  seth is eight months older than samuel.  so holly and i got to play babies.   it was so great to see them play so well together.

they played  a l o t.

samuel fulton.  i love you to pieces!   i love calling you by your full name too.  and no you have not been in trouble,  i just really love your name.  at  f o u r  whole months you are rolling over from your tummy to back.    you are not too interested in what is going on, on either side of you.  you grab anything in front of you, including my face, hand, arm ect.   you drool like no other.   you love your feet and i love that you love your feet.  you have established your own bed time.   this bedtime varies between 8-10pm.  you have enjoyed waking up a little bit more in the night.   but  i have come to the conclusion,  i’m okay with it.  i still am not ready to move you out of our room.  i know i’m crazy, but something tells me you might sleep by my side a little longer than jack did.   i think you are totally fine with it.  you love.  love.  love.  to be held.   you fall apart when i lay you down.   if you wait just a little while you give up and decide to talk to yourself or your toys around you.   i have snuck away lately for a date with daddy, some shopping and the rodeo.  i think you are starting to notice my getaways because you are starting to only want to be held by me.   daddy thinks its getting a little ridiculous,  i however think with the amount of time i spend with you,  i’d hope you would show me some recognition 🙂  you are getting nice and healthy in weight.   i still think of you as tiny but.  well.  just look at those rolls.   ah  i love them.

 this month has been a busy one. you had your first road trip.  conveniently, you have decided the carseat is not really that fun.  you also started hanging out in the bumbo seat.   it’s been your new seat in the house when you are not being held.
