Sams first few days home

Welcome home Sam






Some down time with Cousin Josh

Hey Joshy - Whatcha doin?


Me and Mickey (Thanks Aunt Amy)


Abbie's cabbage patch kid (Josh) from Aunt Laurie and Unkle Rick - and brother Sam...

Little Sammy - 3 days old



Tough guy outfit with a backhoe for Unkle Mike
(preemie sized since he's so small, but the arms are too short)

We've had such a great time these first few days. Grammy, Aunt Amy and Josh have been here and have been a HUGE help. I don't know what we would have done with out them. THANK YOU-THANK YOU-THANK YOU!!!
Abbie is still not really sure what to think of Sam, but she's been so good with him. She does get really upset when he cries though. I've been trying to explain to her that he doesn't cry because he's hurt it's just that he needs something. I think she's starting to understand. She always says "oh know, boo-boo when she sees his belly button.
I think our plan for today is to get the Christmas decorations up. This is our last day with family here so we're just trying to enjoy some relaxed at home time. Yesterday we did a lot and I was pretty exhausted by last night. But, since we have some baby sitters here PJ and I took advantage of the time to do some Christmas shopping and went out to dinner. Honestly we haven't been out to dinner just the two of us since before Abbie was born. It was a much needed and appreciated evening out.
Grammy is taking home a yummy treat for GG (Great Grammy). The grape fruits and oranges are ripe so she's going to check an extra bag at the airport and take some home. Yummo!!
