California

We had a great journey on our surprise visit out to California and are now back in Missouri. Samuel was a wonderful traveler. We left Warrensburg on April 28th and made it to Colorado that night where we set up camp. Samuel helped Cody start a fire. The next day we drove to the border of Utah and Nevada and spent the night at a hotel. The next day we made it to Grandma and Grandpa (John & Laurie) Morris' house. I hid behind some bushes while Cody put Samuel on their doorstep. Then Cody rang the door bell and ran behind the bushes. Laurie answered the door and said, "There's a baby on the doorstep!" They were all surprised to see us. We got to be there for Ashley's graduation party, Caleb's birthday and Mother's Day. We had a great visit with family and friends. Everyone enjoyed getting to see Samuel.

Samuel is pretty camera shy most of the time, but I was able to sneak in from a side angle. He is making all kinds of different sounds now!

Friendly Visitors

Samuel had a big weekend! Samuel came with Cody and I to pick up some friendly visitors at the Kansas City airport. He got to see his Aunt Heather again and he met Jay for the first time (thanks for coming to see us). Samuel is talking more and is alert more everyday. According to our scale here at the house, Samuel is now 14 pounds!! He is getting some nice muscle tone as you can see in the picture above. He is growing up so fast! Last night he slept for 9 1/2 hours!! Momma was grateful for the long rest :) He will be 3 months old, tomorrow, Friday, March 14th.
