My how time flys. Sam is 6 months old already. He finally mastered rolling from back to belly about a week ago - he really hasn't been in any hurry. To be fair to him, he really doesn't get a lot of practice time either, since being on the floor isn't the safest place with 2 big brothers around.
He loves to sit in his exersaucer and jumper. He's reaching for everything and anything these days and of course it all goes in his mouth. No teeth yet - seems like they should be coming soon but as far as I can tell there's no sign of them! He's started on food and it loving it - he's still pretty messy but that's what being a baby is all about.
He graduated from the baby tub into the bath seat as well. Today when he and Ben were in the tub together he was really getting into it. Splashing with both hands and getting water everywhere.
He's become a little chunk, just like his brothers were. Funny thing is that everyone thinks he so chubby but I'm pretty sure he is the slenderist of them all - don't get me wrong, he's not slender! He is in the 75 percentile for all little under Ben's 100+.
Of couse he LOVES his brothers. He gets caught in the crossfire ever now and then but I figure he's recording all of it in that little brain of his, planning his attack. Both Ben and Jake love to talk to him - Ben still likes to get after him sometimes but Jake adores him. They chat about stuff every day.
We are anxiously awaiting the arrival of Spring. Last weekend we finally got the Christmas lights off of the house and Sam got to bundle up and come along outside. It will be so nice once we can all be outside together. The big boys thought is was so cool that even Sam was coming out.
That's all for now - we all truly cherish our surprise bundle of joy.
