Happy Thanksgiving
We are spending a quiet day at home with the boys and remembering all we have to be thankful for this year.

Snakes and Snails
Snakes and snails and puppy dog tails
That’s what little boys are made of!
I just found out that my friend Andrea is having a boy next February. I was thinking about when I found out that Sam was a boy and I was a little disappointed – I wanted manicures and dresses and pig tails – not trucks and frogs and dirt!
Boy was I wrong!
I love having a little boy!
Sam is still very young so most of the “boy” stuff is yet to be but there is just something about his quirky little smile and the way he throws his head back in a fit of laughter! He loves great big trucks and knocking over towers of blocks. If you lay on the floor he will kneel next to you and fall on top of you – repeatedly – thinking it’s the most hilarious thing in the world! When we are out and about he smiles and waves to everyone and all the ladies coo over him! He likes it when you chase him and flip him upside down. He likes to jump – A LOT! I definitley think he will be an “outdoor” kid, who likes to play in the rain and make mud pies (like his cousin Kevin) – I can handle the dirt and trucks and sports but if he ever brings me a frog I might have to run away…..…ewwww!!!!! He just learned the sign for frog (tongue in and out) and its so cute to see him do it!
Oh and boys really love their mommies =) heehee
Nick and Andrea: Congrats on the upcoming arrival of your little boy – I promise you he will bring you more delight than you have ever known! And of course Sam is stokked about having a new buddy to play with! =) We love you and cant wait to meet your son!
Oh and here is my advice to you for having a boy…. When changing the diaper remember to point the penis DOWN! It will save you lots in the laundry department ;-) I learned the hard way!
Obvioulsy I cant speak to the wonders of little girls but if I ever blessed with one I am sure I will be back on here saying all the wonderful things about them too =)

14 down! 6 to go!
Well Sam may be behind his peers in crawling and walking but he is making up for it in teeth! lol
Last night I noticed 2 new bottom teeth!! So we now have 8 on top and 6 on the bottom - only 6 more until he has a full mouth!

I got some bad news today =(
My beloved Grape Jelly lipsmacker has been discontinued =(
I emailed the company requesting where to find it and got this reply:
Dear Regina,

We are sorry to say that both our stock and our retail customer’s stock are completely depleted and we do not have a replacement product. We are very sorry for any inconvenience this may have caused you. I guess "2" sorry's are better than one

Benefits of being short
... I can sleep however I want too!
![](https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjJ7nRvEqnF4eWfPcxIq5l3lgzbR6637cUX7J4QEvqs7xGFddewIIn4oKMhOMBxwn_CiDMLJRDJnSs6PvtfeV3Cnzl-y1KtE4_7g4B9GqQnnv807oKXBAjvW4WXEZGjmwHPHOvZf8VcGvly/s320/short.jpg)
This pic is hard to see because I used my cell phone to take a picture of the video monitor - Sam's feet are smashed into the left side of the crib and his head is smashed into the right side of the crib - Instead of sleeping "long" ways he is horizontal! LOL

First Word!
Ok so this one is going in the baby book! Yes, mama and dada are real words but to me they dont count! lol
He *might* have said more before but it was a push - heehee
Sam is doing great with his signing but hasnt had any big words come out..... until now~
![](https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgbHmlLrfe9qMPP-KSsiDJYiDmNFVXLj1rZoS7tqK8T8cZoMY3s3NmSIGwt28OJJcDHJe5MqzFc8k_38B0S1nJqnoAmBihUxCua_rvYjoQjLIZX4USB3NlJ_hPBHwkTSdsokNBDLduDTPlL/s320/banana.jpg)
Yesterday we were in the kitchen and I was holding him - we walked past the counter and he put out his hand and said "nanas" - I looked and there were the bananas! I said yes! bananas! Then I walk away and he screams "nanas, nanas, nanas"!!! So I gave in and gave him half of one - I try to be careful with them so he doesnt get constipated! The rest of the day every time he saw them he pointed and said nanas and cried until he got a bite! So, the bananas are now hidden in the cabinet.... =)
Yay for first words!
