Our Life Lately

Ughhhh I just wrote this post and it did not save!!! I hope I can do it justice again and that Samuel stays asleep for a bit longer!!

Samuel is 3 1/2 weeks old and we feel like we are adjusting nicely. We have our good days and frustrating days, but we are really enjoying our little guy. Here are some things we've been up to lately:

4th of July cookout and fireworks

watching daddy play softball for the first time

meeting Auntie Kay

first church service (the pic is from before church)

going to The Olive Garden for our 2nd anniversary

We also dropped Samuel off at Grammy and Bop's house so that we could go see Larry Crowne. It was a fun date night.

Here are some things that Samuel is up to at 3 1/2 weeks:

He sleeps through the night really well. I usually have to wake him up to eat. He does occasionally have trouble falling asleep at bedtime though.
He is pretty fussy during the day. We think he has lots of gas.
He is getting to like his baths more and more (if he's already in a good mood).
I think he's going to give us a smile pretty soon!
He loves riding in the car.
He loves the outdoors. If he's crying, you can usually just step outside with him and he will immediately stop or fall asleep.
He weighed 8 lbs. 2 oz at his last doctor's appointment and was 21.5 inches long.
He likes to be talked and sung to and loves music.
Some days he will only catnap and others he will take a 3-4 hour nap. We are still figuring out this part of his schedule.
He eats at least every 3 hours during the day. Sometimes he will only go 1 1/2 hours between feedings. He keeps his momma very busy!

That's all I can think of right now. We love our Samuel very much and can't wait to see how he grows and changes!
