Samuel is doing so well! It seems like it has been a lot longer since he had surgery. Here is a bit of review of the past week.
David's mom came arrived on Sunday evening and then his dad arrived Wednesday evening. Samuel has LOVED spending time with Grandma and Papa and it has been wonderful having them here to help with watching Samuel while David and I go to work.
We received Samuel's first "school" pictures this week. I am working on getting them scanned in so that I can share them. I must say that he sure is a cutie.
On Saturday Samuel had his first taste of food! We tried to feed him some baby oatmeal. He looked at me like I had lost my mind when I put the spoon in his mouth. I did put some oatmeal on his binky and he still thought I was odd. He looked at David as if to say, "Dad, do you see what Mom is doing? Are you going to let her just get away with this?" So, here is a picture of Samuel's first experience with food!
I am making his baby food right now and I am pretty excited about it. It seems like it wont be too hard and it also seems like it will be a lot cheaper. I did buy the baby oatmeal, but I made the sweet potato. Next I am going to try avacado - all I have to do for that is peel it so I can't really claim that I am going to make it, but I did pick it out from the store and I will peel it!
Also this week, Samuel discovered a new way to play with his play mat....here's the video!
This evening we went to EPCOT with David's parents. It was their first time at Walt Disney World!

Yay! Sounds like a fun week!
I'm glad things are going so well. And I'm glad David's parents were able to come help. Family is great! Hope Samuel realizes that food is good . . .
Samantha ... I see that you are following me? What the heck? JK. What I should say is, I see that you have become a follower of my blog :) I'm going to add you to my list of buddies if you don't mind.
So, I don't know if you want to go into details or not - but what's going on with little Samuel? I didn't realize he'd had two surgeries. Whatever the reason, I will keep you in my prayers.
I love blogs :) It's so great to see your bright smiling face again!! Oh, how you made us all laugh. You're wonderful.
Well, have a good one,
Maria
Hang in there! Both of my babies hated their first cereal food experiences for about a month each, but Ally's my happy little eater (she'll eat just about anything Gerber has concocted now). I'm really glad to see all is well. It must be nice having family there visiting. I know I sure missed family visits since they were far more few between when I was living in Florida.
That video of Sam playing with his play mat was so funny. Dylan does a similar thing with his knee--but it really isn't that cute because he is six years old.
