Happy Birthday Sammy!!

Sammy turned 1 on 10/17. We had a big weekend....Erick and Samantha came down from Chicago and Mom and Dad came from Virginia. It was Sam's and Erick's first meeting.... Samantha is Erick's girlfriend, but Sam sure took a liking to her and so did we!


Grand-daddy showing Sam how to work his new toy....

We had Sam's party on Sunday...he woke up from his nap to a house full of people...he was just a little bashful...at first..


So we broke out the gifts......



Sammy is not walking yet...but he was standing for long periods of time while playing with his new toys....it won't be long...


Then comes cake.....as his afternoon snack...



We didn't have a party hat for him...but I like the Mickey ears much better!

It was a great weekend! I loved that my family came...I just wish I had taken more pictures! My folks took us out for Thai food on Saturday...Sammy's first taste of Thai...I brought my camera...but it never left my purse....I really need to do better! He liked the chicken from my Pad Thai...but that ws about it. We'll have to work on that!
