Sam & Amelia

Sam,
You are so close to being mobile. I know my days of watching you play on your blanket are numbered. You sit up most of the time now to play, but occasionally want to lay down and take it easy! You don’t stay on your back for long, though – you have mastered rolling over to your tummy. You can get up on your knees and rock back and forth, scoot backwards on your belly and do baby pushups – straightening your arms to lift yourself off the ground and pushing up with your toes. It’s really quite cute! It won’t be long until you figure out how to move yourself forward to get to everything that is off limits. Dad and I need to get busy baby-proofing the house.

Your third tooth is coming in, and maybe the 4th. Both on the top.

Your hair is growing thicker and longer, too. I think it is going to stay blonde for a while, although occasionally I see a glimpse of red in it! You’re still the cutest baby and I just can’t get enough of your sweet smiles!
Love you,
Mom
