Week 3 for WeThree




This has been a week of many firsts-- first "swim" at our friend's pool w/the other babies and moms, learning to sit up for as long as he likes and first time wearing his new sailor outfit-- thank you Ed R!
Poor Samuel has had a tough couple of days, tho you might not know it by the photos. He's teething in earnest--lots of drooling and stuffing hands/fists/parent's knuckles and anything else in reach in the mouth and gnawing on them. From what we hear, if adults had to teethe, they'd be in the ER demanding drugs, so we know Sam's grumpiness is warranted. The three of us will be delighted when those teeth break through, even tho we know there are more to come.
We went to great Aunt Peg's house for a family 4th of July cookout and he got to meet his cousin Will and uncle Bill. (Aunt Pam and cousin Megan met him shortly after his arrival here when they came to bring needed onesies, Dreft detergent and loads of other practical things, plus toy, of course.) We didn't get any photos that day--I can't believe it!
And yesterday was the wedding of our dear friends, Kim and Warren's, eldest son, Jeff. I'll include a blurry photo (something's wrong w/our camera!) of the bride and groom. It was a fun day. Sam went to the wedding but not the reception--Lois babysat for the brief period he was awake while we were out--TY, TY to Lois! He loved being w/ Lois and we were much relieved to hear it. :-)
That's all for now--gotta get the little tyke up from his nap. ttfn, mb for We Three

Hi there, Marybeth! I love your blog and all the photos of Baby Samuel. But I have genuine concern for you, my dear: WHY WOULD YOU WAKE SAM FROM HIS NAP????? :-)

Love,
Aunt Arlene
