"I love my new birthday bear!"

just relaxin' with Daddy...

looking a bit wistful...

We are all amazed at how much Samuel has grown this last year! It seems like just last week he was born. He is now walking around the house, getting into lots of trouble, and making us all smile and his cute, funny ways. On March 15th, for Samuel's birthday, we had our grandparents and cousins over for dinner. These pictures are not all from that evening... I just couldn't resist to put a few other recent pics. of him in!

Walking Lunch Creek Trail

Sam LOVES the outdoors, even when it's cold.

He didn't cry until we took him out of the stroller to go home.

the creek was pretty neat... mostly frozen over
