Samuel's got rhythm

My crewcut

Fans of Samuel's blog may be disappointed that I took Samuel for his first official haircut. He was looking so much like a little girl with a bouffant, and with the summer here--I thought a shorter haircut would keep him cooler and help him look more boyish.

Before I knew it, the deed was done and all of Samuel's beautiful locks were chopped off. I felt immediate regret, and I already miss my little baby with his baby hair. He's got a "big boy haircut" as his barber would say. Well, it'll grow back.

Ah-mah and Yeh-yeh

Do I look like my dad?

We dug out these old baby photos of me to make side by side comparisions with Samuel. What do you think?

Learning to Crawl

Samuel just started to make some crawling steps yesterday. Here he is practicing some more.

Giving Hickeys

Samuel got into a routine of needing to suck on my arm before going to bed. Then he started to bite as well. Fortunately, we've been able to substitute the sucking with back rubs. It was interesting to get a taste of what nursing might feel like.

Mom's new camera

We've had fun using mom's new SLR camera to try and capture the life and joy these boys bring to us.
