Sam's Saturday Soup - Back At Last

This Saturday I love because Sam keeps coming up with the cutest things. He thinks he's magic - that he can turn off the lights by closing his eyes! He is correct, but he really thinks he's got something going on when he squeezes his eyes shut and he'll shout "I'm turning off the lights with my eyes!"



Quickly - Sam was tagged by his friend Carter and here are a few fun things about Sam:

1. He has to sleep with one of his cars or trains everynight
2. He thinks he has a spider on his head when I put gel in his hair and the curls are crazy.
3. He loves music, and better yet our music - some of his favorites are Johnny Cash and Rascal Flatts

Finally I took a snap of my belly - not a very good picture but thought it would be fun to show how it grows. This is Baby Summers at 16 weeks.

Home At Last

So its been a while, and we are so glad to finally be back in our own home. But, as soon as I say that I realize how sad I am to be gone so far away from our family. We had a great break, and Sam loved playing with his "Idaho cousins" so much. Thanks to our families who made our stay so fun! We miss you already. Here are some highlights from our trip! We had a wonderful time.

Sam's Saturday Soup - from Idaho

We are in Idaho, and have been loving every second. Seriously it has been great and Sam is just running himself ragged chasing after "his boys"! But not to fail, we have some fun moments.

1st - Sam was doing something he shouldn't the other day, and I asked him if I needed to spank his bum. I was expecting a no, but apparently he doesn't really understand the concept of spanking, and he turned and bent over sticking his tush up in the air and said, "Mommy will you please spank my bummy?"

2nd - We went up to Island Park and were able to play in the snow, which is still crazy deep. Sam had his first taste of Idaho snow, and he said it was Um, Um, Good!



3rd - We also were able to go swimming up at Island Park resort and Sam was able to sport his new Lightning McQueen swimming suit - thanks Grandma Julie. He had a blast and actually did a great job swimming thanks to some floaties.

Finally we want to tell everyone thank you for all of your congratulations. We are so lucky to have such wonderful family and friends, who we appreciate more than we can say! Thanks for everything.

And Baby Make Four!!!

Yea!! I've been waiting patiently to make this post, and still am a little anxious because there is always a small chance that things can go wrong, but we went to our second appointment today and heard the baby's heart beat again!! We are 13 weeks, and due the first of September. I can't describe how grateful we are for this, so far healthy pregnancy. We are hopeful that this will go well and Sam will finally get a sibling. After having three miscarriages, we are still a little wary, and it really is hard to get too excited, but we are very happy and can't wait for our little guy (I think its a boy!) to get here!!
