2 Weeks Old

I can't help but post some of these priceless faces. Little Sammy is already growing and changing so much! I'm just crossing my fingers that as he continues to grow, his sweet demeanor doesn't change. He is sleeping for four hours at a time in the night. He takes great naps and falls asleep easily (no ridiculous bouncing routine necessary). He loves his binky. He is only awake for short periods throughout the day, but when he's awake, he's not screaming. He will lie happily on a blanket for 30+ minutes. We took him out for dinner last night, and he snoozed in the car seat the entire time without a peep. This type of behavior is so foreign to me. Is this for real? Have others had babies this good? Is it possible to actually be excited to hear the sound of a baby waking up? Could I be making this judgment too soon? Is he going to mutate into a little monster next week? Or did the Lord really bless me with an angel?

Just look at him!

I had a dream about Samuel this morning as I was sleeping in. (I think I might always call him Samuel because I think that's such a great name.) I'll write you about it. Is that the blanket that my mom made? It looks like something she would make. She still remembers you guys gave her positive feedback about that blanket and says it's the only positive feedback she's ever gotten about one of the many baby blankets she's made. I told her Linda thought it was beautiful. I heart baby Samuel. I heart all your boys. Especially...all of them. You guys really should live here.

PRECIOUS!!! It was so good to see you and him at the park the other day and hear all about his birth. He is adorable, I'm glad he is treating you well (which BTW before my boys started being mobile they were generally like Samuel...) so I suppose some little guys have a harder time than others. I'll cross my fingers that he continues in this same wonderful fashion!
