12 Weeks...3 Months?

I'm not sure about the math...but Sam is 12 weeks old. Of course, he's not really 3 months old until the 20th. How does that work? (Sorry he looks like he's in distress. He was smiling and talking until I turned the camera on him.)



And one of my Mo's sweet face taken this morning...

11 Weeks, 11 Pounds

That's how big Sam was for his "2 month" check-up. We went in to the pediatrician but because she is SO busy, it was a little after he was 2 months old. He weighed in at a whopping 11 pounds and measured 2 feet long. (That's HUGE compared to his sister at that age.) And just for your info...Mo is 3 years older than him and only 14 inches taller! ha ha

Happy (belated) Halloween

As usual...these pictures have taken me a while to post. We enjoyed doing a very little Trick or Treating in our neighborhood with Mo and our buddy, Peyton. (Mo was Tinker Bell. Pey was a really cute princess fairy. Sam went as a baby. ha) Of course, the real fun came when we came back to the house and let Mo give out candy. I think that it was her favorite part of the night.

The last few weeks...

It's been a full few weeks around here, and I realized that I haven't posted Sam's weekly pictures in a while. So a little photo overload and catch-up on life in Athens. Enjoy!

Here's 7, 8, & 9 Weeks old, respectively. (Did I mention that he's 10 1/2 pounds?)

I love this picture because Molly is dressed like Jason! ha ha

Pumpkin Patch

On Saturday, we went to the pumpkin patch at Washington Farms. It was a)fun, b)windy, and c)15 degrees colder at the farm than it was at our house. Thirty minutes into our trip, Mo said to me, "Okay. Let's go home." But not before we tracked down a big pumpkin, a small pumpkin, and 2 mini pumpkins for the porch and took pictures of us with all sorts of Autumnal things.

Jason got all artsy with his pumpkin photography.

Mo really loved this little pumpkin!

Sam was ecstatic about his time at the farm.

One of my favorite photos of all time...

Blowing Rock

We had a great weekend with family up in Blowing Rock. If it wasn't for my sister-in-law, I'd only have a couple of pictures. Here are some she took.




Our nephew (ADORABLE!) in his favorite boots. He wore them all weekend.


Needless to say, Sam enjoyed his first trip to BR.


The girls had a great time, too. They especially enjoyed ostracizing Jack when he tried to sit with them, play with them, talk to them, eat next to them, etc.

Ready for Fall

In honor of our weekend in the mountains...

Mo thinks it's awesome that she and her daddy both have vests. She wore it all afternoon despite the fact that it was nearly 80 degrees in Athens today.
