Samuel has come so far from that tiny little 4 pound baby on a ventilator...
 |
| Our first snuggle |
At his six month checkup yesterday, he weighed in at over 15 pounds. He's in the 10th percentile for both height at weight on the full-term growth chart (unadjusted for his prematurity). He's smiling, cooing, laughing, grabbing, and standing. He "swims" in place while on his tummy, kicking his legs and moving his arms as fast as he can. He loves baths, snuggles, and watching his big sister's antics.
We are so grateful for our handsome little man and all the joy he brings to us every day!

I can't remember life before Sammy. Was there? It doesn't seem possible. But now his sweet light makes anything seem possible. I love you, Samuel! Please come quickly so I can squeeze you tight to me. Gigi
Where have the last six months gone?! What amazing progress from such a special little guy! So glad he has such great parents and such a joyful sister.
My heart is a puddle on the floor right now!!!
