Samuel's 1st pics

This was Samuel's very first picture and also our very first family picture!! 

Happy Birthday Samuel!!! 

WOW!!! Samuel will be 1 year old Tuesday!

Here are a few shots I took of Samuel tonight. Daniel was opening his Birthday Elmo for him. He loves Elmo! I honestly can not believe that it has been a year tomorrow that our little boy was born, actually as I type this it will be in 2 hours and 8 minutes (12:05am). This has been the most amazing year for Daniel and I. Having a child is the most amazing experience and bond that a couple can experience.  This is a quote by Bill Cosby  "Having a child is surely the most beautifully irrational act two people in love can commit."

I love being a Mommy and Daniel loves being a Daddy, it is amazing how things change, how things that matter before don't any longer and things that never did, do now. Samuel is our life now.  We really don't go any where without him. We love spending all of our time with him, he is just a blast.  If I had to go through another pregnancy like the one with Samuel I would do it again fifty times over.  Thanks to our family for all your help and support. 

We are taking Samuel to Build-A- Bear for his birthday and then to the Cup Cakery so it should be a great day!!! 

Samuel 10 Months - Jan 09

Samuel is walking around every where and in to everything. You tell him "no no" and he smiles real sweet and just takes off as fast as he can go. He loves bath time and he really loves just playing all around the house. He does not want to sit in your lap at this point. The other day Daniel told him no and took something away from him and he cried a little and then came and laid his head on Daniel and was being so sweet it is funny how a 11 month already knows. 

He is saying hi and bye and also waves, he blows you a kiss by puckering his lips and popping them he doesn't use his hand. We have been trying to get him to hold up 1 finger for his first birthday.
