Easter & SLO Trip

Hi everyone! Ready for a bunch of pictures? Here's what we've been up to lately...

We started out the Easter weekend with a fun egg-hunt... He fit right in with the "2 and under" category... but was still a little too young to compete with all the other kids. Nevertheless, Samuel was quite happy with his 2 eggs!
Here's Andrew & our little bunny at our Easter celebration with the Whites

Samuel also had fun pretending to be a pirate!
Opening his Easter basket on Sunday morning - what a cute little guy!
I love this picture of our little family!
Andrew's parents & grandparents came down to celebrate Easter with us.
It was a beautiful day to try out our new porch swing! :)
Here's Samuel practicing crawling... of course, he hasn't figured it out yet, but its fun to try!
...and here he is all pooped out from practicing! Haha!
We celebrated the end of tax season by taking a drive up to San Luis. It was so nice to be able to relax and spend some quality time together, just the 3 of us. Here's the three of us enjoying a nice day on the pier in Pismo Beach.
This was Samuel's first trip to the beach! He loved playing with the sand... he kept grabbing it and watching the sand pour out of his fists, between his fingers.
(You can see that he is sporting his Cal Poly gear!)

We also gave Sammy a tour of the campus. Here he is in front of the silo at the business building...
OK, first person to recognize these, wins! Yummy...!

I just love this picture of our little guy wearing his hat all sideways and cool... hehe
We also made a stop over in Buellton and visited our friends the Grindys... here is little Sammy and his new friend Nick - they are just a couple weeks apart in age.
It was fun watching our little blue-eyed boys play together! :)
Sammy has also recently showed us that he knows how to stand up on his own! He's so proud of himself! He can probably stand up for close to 5 minutes before he loses his balance (or gets tired)... Good job Sammy!
Happy Sammy!
Angry Sammy!
(Haha - actually, he was just making one of those manly yelling sounds that he oh so loves to do!)
And last, but not least, our little munchie dressed up to serve Hot Dog on a Stick! :)

That's it for now... time to get our little guy some lunch!

Sammy's thoughts on carrots...

So Samuel has just started shaking his head "No!" It is so cute! He really only does it at mealtimes... today I caught it on video during his lunch. He was down to the last few bites of carrots, when he just couldn't take any more. Cute guy!

We recently got Sammy a walker and he figured it out right away! At first he only went backwards, and now he is starting to walk forwards. He's cute and will try his hardest to follow us around. Since he's not quite crawling yet, I'm sure he loves this new "freedom" of roaming around our living room all by himself. Here's some video of him taking his quick little baby steps towards the camera (thanks to one of his favorite books to coax him to me!).

For those of you with some time on your hands, you can watch this video (its a bit longer than the rest of them) of Samuel in action... enjoy!


Last but not least, some recent photos of our little guy:
Getting excited for Easter...

Such a handsome boy!

Playing with all his toys...

Peek-a-boo!

How many babies can fit on a swing?

Looks like its just 2!

We had fun at the park this week with Aunt Mindy & Aunt Jillian. The swing looked just wide enough for Sammy to ride with his cousin Leia... and it was! Sammy didn't seem to know what was going on... but I don't think Leia was thrilled about sharing her swing ride with her cousin. She kept turning and pointing at him the whole time! They are so cute...
