blogging

Lamine and I looked back through the blog last night, and I have decided that I really need to get back into it. I can't believe only post 5-6 times in April and May and 20 times in March. I want to be able to go back through this blog and ooh and ah over how fast Sam is growing--to be able to see the day to day changes. That's why I started this blog in the first place. So, in the spirit of blogging more....Here's some pictures of the cutie patootie.

the baby and me

we have a sitting baby, people!

Samory started sitting up last week, and it's made taking pictures of him so much easier :)  Oh, how I love this little guy.  Ugh. He's so cute, it just makes my heart hurt. 

"Birthdays"

So, Samory turned 5 months old yesterday and today is Lamine's birthday!  Is it awful that I'm more emotional about Sam turning 1 month older than I am about Lamine turning 1 year older?  This picture is from a few days ago, and it isn't an awesome picture of Sam, but I still like it. I'll try to post more pictures later.

First Mother's Day

I had a beautiful first mother's day.  Our friends Heather and Chase and Melissa and Bryce threw us a wonderful mother's day brunch, and we spent the rest of the day enjoying the sunny weather. Here's a few pictures of our little cutie on the lawn. 

P.S. He can't really sit up yet. He'll keep his balance for about 10 seconds before toppling over, but his round little belly keeps him propped up for a little while.
