Big Steps for both boys!

Today was a busy day. John was sitting with Sammy last night and of course Sammy was pulling whatever he could towards his mouth, including his fingers. John noticed something a little sharp. Sammy has the beginning of his first AND second tooth. They are both coming in. I thought for sure he was going to have a hard time during teething but he has been great. Big tough guy. :-)

This morning Tommy also took a HUGE first step. I asked him if he wanted to try going potty on the big boy potty and wearing Pull Ups. He said he would like to try!!! He tried it. Nothing happened, but at least he tried!!! It's a big step for him and he did great. I was very proud of my little man. I think he was too. It was only for a little while, but it's a start.

Other than that, we are all doing well...waiting for the spring weather to come back so we can go for more walks. Tommy loves going out in the double stroller with his little Baby Sammy. He's constantly turning around and checking on him. He's such a good big brother. Sammy is enjoying smiling and cooing and laughing at everyone -- just a happy little man.

Rolling over!

Sammy rolled over on Saturday! In the morning, he rolled over from his back to his stomach with Mommy and Tommy watching, and a little while later while Daddy and Tommy were watching, he rolled over from stomach to back. He's so strong! We're enjoying his smiling and laughing, and also loving the interaction between him and his older brother. Tommy is now loving making his little brother giggle and smile. The other night he said "Noodle" which made Sammy laugh so we got to hear the word Noodle about 15 times. It was very cute.
